Hey ! Sorry, it’s been a long time since my last article, but there was a lot of thing going on down here . Actually, you might not have heard about it, but there is a little disease called “Covid-19” (Corona-virus for the intimates) which is spreading around the world.
In every country, people are getting into quarantine, need to be 2 meter away, they are robbing the supermarkets, even buying guns (crazy uh) and the hospitals are overcrowded.
But not here… Finnish people don’t give a s*** about corona. In fact, in the Finnish culture, social distancing is the norm. In Finland, people don’t like being close to each other, even friends and family. So when you see people on the street, they always make detours to avoid being close to you.
Obviously, the Finnish government still set up some rule to prevent the spreading of Corona in the country :
- Non-essential public places are closed (bar, library, school, …)
- online classes are set to allow student to follow their curriculum.
- Meeting of more than 10 person at a time are forbidden
- You are not allowed to travel abroad
Our school, ESAIP, advised us to come back to France. So 3 of us did. We’ll see you in September, Thomas, Gabin and Erwann.
Stay all safe and see you soon !
Nähdään pian
