Going to places in Manila
can be tough. Having a car helps but traffic
will always be another issue. If you commute, it’s even harder. And since I’m a
little paranoid, especially at night, safety has always been a concern of mine hence
I do not mind paying a bit more as long as I’m sure that I’ll get home safe.
This is why I am so in love with the apps GrabTaxi
and Uber.
Okay, I have to admit; I used to hate GrabTaxi. There were instances when I finally got a cab
and then the driver does not show up. And when I try to get in touch with the
driver, he would reason out that he got another passenger or what-have-you. WHAT
THE?!
This is the reason why I started using Uber and I was pretty
happy with it. The surcharge though was a turnoff. I once paid around PHP400
for a usual PHP120 ride. Anyway, I’m still happy with Uber.
But today, GrabTaxi made me really happy. I got to ride its
Sexy Fox cab.
The best part was it was a FREE
RIDE!
