Life ‘Stuck’ in Taiwan during the coronavirus pandemic (May’s edition)

What is life like ‘stuck’ in Taiwan during the coronavirus pandemic? Strange but wonderful! It feels strange because while most of the world was on pause in May, Taiwan has been moving forward and operating as usual. We dine at restaurants, get on crowded subway rides, explore tourist sites, see students going to school and workers going to work. We feel guilty at times for leading such free lives after we completed our home self-quarantine. If we were back in the US or France, we would still be unable to move around freely and would be constantly worried about possibly spreading the virus to our loved ones so we are very grateful for the freedom we have in Taiwan. So for that, thank you Taiwan!

What is life like ‘stuck’ in Taiwan during the coronavirus pandemic? Strange but wonderful! It feels strange because while most of the world was on pause in April, Taiwan has been moving forward and operating as usual. We dine at restaurants, get on crowded subway rides, explore tourist sites, see students going to school and workers going to work. We feel guilty at times for leading such free lives after we completed our home self-quarantine. If we were back in the US or France, we would be unable to move around freely and would be constantly worried about possibly spreading the virus to our loved ones so we are very grateful for the freedom we have in Taiwan.
