We are witnessing strange times these days, that has a devastating impact on the travel industry. We are learning an important lesson both in private and professional lives. Things we’ve always taken for granted, are now put in perspective, and core values are once again on the agenda. We see the importance of unity, teamwork and respect for people working frontline to prevent the Covid-19 from further extension, and the rest of us, owe it to them, to stay at home.

Although it’s sad to see our beautiful destinations with empty streets and closed-down shops, we know that the vibrant, local life, will once return. People will get to travel again and business will go on as ususal. There will be moments where we probably wish we could hit the reset button for 2020, but it’s necessary to look ahead and just learn from this experience. We’d like to quote the director of WHO,  Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus to finish up;

“This is the time for facts, not fear. This is the time for science, not rumors. This is the time for solidarity, not stigma. We are all in this together, and we can only stop it together.”
