" By now, the sun has completely set and yet the lights of the buildings and billboards surrounding us are bright enough to fully illuminate the night sky. Back home in Mondovia, evenings are rather quiet, but here, everything is still so busy. The sidewalks are bustling with pedestrians of every age and nationality. The air is tinged with the aromas of car exhaust, cigarette smoke, and some sort of fried delicacy. And then there’s the music, a modern mixture of unfamiliar beats and lyrics, that blares from a vintage radio across the street. "
