RE: Window Shopping

Very true words. We have full weekend-long lockdowns here in Suriname, and have had curfews for a nearly a year. Many shops here have opted to sell items from the door instead of risk customers going in and out. Public transportation is nearly non-existent, so it's been a great hardship on my family and I.

This is a country where a car is nothing short of required to have a decent life. As we have only a bicycle for a family of 4, it has been very difficult for us to do shopping before weekend lockdowns. The families with cars and motorcycles always beat us to the stores and buy nearly everything.

I think all around the world, this pandemic has only served to increase the gap between the rich and the poor.

oh man, sounds really difficult! I wish you the best for you and your family and that the situation improves...
