This is really amazing that you are living and studying in Japan @whatamidoing I wondered how it might be over there during this 'crisis'. I've friends in UK and actually would have normally been there when this crisis started, but plans changed this Winter and oddly enough, what was meant to be annoyance (in not getting to go) turned out to be a blessing, as I'd not want to deal with the airports in the beginning of this.
Well, I just found you, can't remember which blog, but I'll be checking in.
