Individuals transitioning between shelters sleep at various locations recommended by shelter administrators, available only from 8 PM to 6 AM.

  • Recommended sleep locations are only available from 8 PM to 6 AM.
  • After 6 AM, individuals must leave these locations and wait until 8 PM again.
  • Some engage in activities like collecting bottles to sell or attending English courses during the day.
  • The conditions faced by those seeking shelter are transient and uncertain.
