About the Ebook
In front of the tourists' hotels, in the crowded market, under the metro bridge or on its access stairs, life in the Philippines is seething. Look closer and here's a second life within the first: that of the sidewalks. While locals and tourists hurry about their business, many Manilans' lives move at a much slower pace. The sidewalk is home.
While poverty in the villages may only serve to demonstrate degrees of wealth, in larger cities it is cause for discrimination - a measuring tool that excludes the weakest.
Far from an attempt to illustrate the complexity of the Philippines' life and culture, I simply invite you to discover through these images that touched me during my stay.

About the Creator
"Taking a photo. Shooting. Both sound egoistic and violent. Photos are all gifts I received from the subjects. A moment of life they decided to share. A sight I was offered. They decide what to give and what to hold." Born in Iran in 1967, Arash Khodabandeh grew in France where he is currently residing.
