15th SM Mall in My Journey, the SM City North EDSA, Visited on the 17th of December 2015 When I started staying here in Manila for work, I started planning for my new adventure of visiting near SM Malls for my personal travel. I don't go to SM Malls just to shop or buy things I want, rather the things I only need because the reason why I do visit SM Malls is to be there and ultimately reach the goal of completing the visit to all SM Malls in the country, and if lucky enough, I would also love to visit SM Malls in other country and take a selfie with it for my #SMSelfie journey šŸ˜‚ It took me a while to visit SM City North EDSA which as we know, just a ride away with MRT from Taft and you'll be there in minutes.
