I have been so lucky to live out COVID 2020 from the comfort and safe haven that is South Korea. Sadly, while I get to live my day to day life comfortably and with minimal interruptions to my life before COVID, there is one huge inconvenience for me. I cannot travel to the United States to visit my family. Well, I could, but with the two week quarantine in place upon arriving back to Korea, I would be asking for about a month off. It's too long to go without working. I am so family-oriented though! Still, I love my life and teaching job in Korea, so I can't just up and move back due to missing family. Thus, I have found that these three ways of staying connected to family have really helped me feel a lot better. I'm happy to share these ideas with you.
