  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

CHALLENGES

I'm really struggling with finding the fine line between containing the pandemic and holding down my upcoming wanderlust. But at this point of 2020, for me its more important to watch after the health then traveling around to satisfy my wishes. Because for me family always comes first and I couldn't deal with the fact that I'm the one that spread Covid-19. (October, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

I am really liking the idea about starting over in the field of tourism. I think it's a great idea because the tourism industry has been doing amazing so far for many years and had a lot of profit from different airline companies bringing bilions every year and so on, but I still think that with starting all over we could do even better and make tourism industry better than ever.
