I still remember April 1, 2020, the day when the whole country of Vietnam implemented social isolation because of the Covid pandemic. Everything from my living habits to my work has changed completely. I'm the type of person who likes to socialize with other people, so I go out and meet a lot of people every day. But after the pandemic hit, I had to stay at home all day and no more meetings with people, outings or camping trips. The happy memories in these photos are now a thing of the past.
Previously, I had a coffee homestay and I hosted backpackers from many different countries. Every day I met and made coffee for them. I've had a great time with them through coffee stories and trips. I also worked in tourism and that was my source of income. But then, when the pandemic hit, I lost my job and no one was in my homestay, then I had to close it because I had no other choice. And now I have to manage to find other sources of income. Indeed, the Covid pandemic has changed my life a lot. Honestly, it has had a lot of negative effects on my life, but it has also taught me great lessons about saving, investing, and financial management. How about you? I hope you stay safe and sound during this pandemic and that the pandemic will end soon and we will see each other on our trips in the near future.
