Are you in quarantine right now? Still crying over the emails of a canceled flight? Are you grieving a vacation trip you couldn’t make? Well, you are not alone. Due to the emergency provoked by the coronavirus, I had to cancel three upcoming journeys, one of them to Peru. On the other hand, I’ve had more than enough time to reflect and remembrance the last trips I’ve done. A few months ago, I traveled to South Korea.
