The last 36 hours will be remembered.

Yes, the Philippines IS the country most hit by Typhoons.

But this one will leave scars.

Still, your preparations and a bit of luck kept you safe. Or at least alive.

The storm has passed, and it’s time to go outside.

As you step out, you start to realize the extent of the damage.

Baguio after a Typhoon

Trees have fallen, Power lines hang low, Roofs lie scattered across the streets.

It is not your first typhoon, and you are aware that the aftermath can be as deadly as the event.

1. What do you stay most cautious about?

A] The typhoon coming back.

B] The soaked slopes and flooded spots.

C] Fallen power lines on your way.

Aware of the risks, you start walking to reach the first relief supplies that have arrived a few kilometers from your home.

2. Which route do you take?

A] You stay on the main road

B] You follow the crowd, taking what seems to be faster

C] You take an alternative path you’re used to

After about 15 minutes of walking, a new problem arises.

The road is blocked by a landslide.

You’re now on the side of a hill and moving forward is no longer possible.

3. What do you do?

A] Take a shortcut downhill.

B] Stay on the main road and wait until it’s cleared.

C] Look for another path on higher ground.

Slow and steady wins the race.

Slowly but surely, you reach the temporary aid center after a few kilometers on foot.

There, you learn that some of the people you crossed paths with did not have the chance, or the prudence, to reach their destination…

You collect what you came for and… now, it’s time to head back.
