Absolutely. I wish I had followed my intuition... I wanted to go back and work from home before this escalated. Now I’m stuck here, my visa’s been processed but I don’t know how long it’ll take (the system was already backlogged before COVID-19). Honestly, it’s a really scary time. You’re not alone, though. Stay strong!

Go to Mexico, then head home from there. Nice place to hang and cheap.
