What are you looking forward to when the pandemic is over?

Regardless of our individual circumstances, everybody is, in some capacity, still living through a pandemic.

It's certainly made me miss things I didn't even necessarily know I liked or needed.

What about you? What are you looking forward to doing in a post-pandemic world, whenever that is?

I may have asked this before πŸ˜„

My 9 years old has an underlying health condition so probably not immediately, but looking for to going out with kids at least three months after all the restrictions are lifted.

Start Lindy Hop again, having my friends from Italy come to meet me here in Amsterdam so I won't feel so lonely all the time, having one less thing to depress me

Going out. Anywhere, be it on vacation, festivals, conventions, my makerspace, friends or just to our local swimming pool. Life in 2020 is just a constant unexicting drag of eat-sleep-work with very little options to spark excitiment in between.

For me it comes down to having the freedom to just do something or make plans without having to worry about if it is permitted or will help spread the virus. I miss that freedom to go anywhere and do anything (within reason) and see people easily.

Playing music with friends, and contra/square dancing. I can practice my fiddle at home, but it's not the same. The drive to learn a new tune in part came from knowing my friends are learning the tune and will be playing it next week at the session.
