Traveling back

Voila, after a last jump in the Singapore Strait water and thirty six hours non-stop with a face mask, I am back in Maine.

The trip back was rather uncomfortable, replacing a new mask at every plane and being quite nervous in a strange untrustful atmosphere. I couldn’t work nor sleep as much as I wanted, so I am back in Maine rather tired, jetlagged and in quarantine again…

I won’t to be able to go shopping and I won’t have the bento boxes three times a day like I had in Singapore, but I will be able to spend my day outside on the porch if I wish to, cooking what I like to eat, and feeling more free that in a little hotel room – at least!

The dark side of leaving remotely however, is that no company accepts to deliver groceries – even not Amaz** Pri**, or the supermarket of the area -, which is not really compatible with staying in quarantine! But I’m extremely fortunate to have wonderful friends and neighbors accepting to do some groceries for me and I also finally managed to get a delivery from the farm once a week, so I should really survive very well :).

On my way to the US I could see the dusty sky from the fires in California, I could see anxious people dealing with a virus that one cannot see, and who didn’t trust each other anymore, I could see scary empty airports built for a crowd, and I must admit that I was very happy to arrive, even in an isolated home invaded by other still unidentified creatures!
