April 8th, 2021 | Heroine

My intuitions were confirmed. Some locals told me that the area I live in is indeed pretty rough. You should never walk by here. Let alone live here.

Yesterday at 9PM at night, as I was hanging my clothes on the balcony, I saw three people boiling heroine in a spoon, one meter away from my entrance.

It's sad for them, so I don't want to talk about it. The point is that I want to change area.

I liked it so much in Milan and Munich, walking safely. I don't want to go back to using the street smarts I grew up with in Greece.

Being aware and careful while walking. Not showing your iPhone. Not dressing well. Or whatever else. Fill in the blank.

Fuck that. I want to be chill, even if that means paying $200 per month more.

I'm moving to one of the safest and most beautiful parts of town.
