Journalist Daisy Dumas recently wrote an article titled “With Borders Closed, Our Lifelines to Family Overseas Have Been Cut. The Isolation is Suffocating.” She went on to say: “Thanks to Covid-19, the great global experiment that, in recent years, invited so many of us to call so many distant shores our home has lost a little of its sheen.”
Over the years we’ve all become experts at connecting with our families using the myriad of devices and platforms available. ‘Soft routines’ have evolved as we’ve met in the cloud, filling the interim void between our treasured, all important face to face visits. Now the uncertainty of travel is ever present, and not going away.
Helen Ellis, the founder of DistanceFamilies.com will offer suggestions as to how you can improve your communication routines, to help nourish you and your family – near and far. Let’s move things up a notch.
