Early March, and we were still making fun of Covid with our Belarusian friend. This whole thing was a joke we’d say, a scam to get people to buy masks and hand sanitizer. When she left back to Belarus, she said that things were turning mad in Europe.
After the mediocre New Year’s celebration, everything was going so well in 2020. In fact, I was feeling like this year was going to be one of the better years, creatively, and in terms of travel.
Unless you’ve personally experienced a war or a natural catastrophe, you’ll likely agree, for you, 2020 has been the worst year… EVER. For me - someone who’s identity has in large part been defined by travel, this has been a miserable year.
