I hope you're not failing in school.

 

[Gallon]

You underestimate my power!

I'm done with uni until October. Trying to focus on learning german this summer, though!
Yes, thankfully everyone's fine. The COVID-19 situation is terrible over here, but we're avoiding unnecessary contact, so there's that.
How are you doing yourself? Everyone's well, I hope.

Why german? That's a tough way to spend the rest of your summer.
Yes definitely take care of yourself and maintain social distance if youre outside. You mean things are bad in terms of high number of casualties?
I'm doing alright, I've been working from home since April (later than most of the country), and still have a job so I'm grateful. Haven't really been out that much besides supermarket a few times and walks. Everyone in my house is doing well too; thanks

Haha, I think I'll have my 6th (practical) year in Germany, and maybe I'll apply for specialization/residency there as well.
As for the virus, there's a lot of cases - they pretty much make 400 tests a day (insane amount, eh? ) and around 200 are positive, constantly. People are uneducated and don't give a shit.
Nice, that sounds great! Can't ask for much more during these times.

That would be awesome if you get that residency. We'd be able to hang out when I eventually visit the country again.

Is the number of cases still increasing there or are you now looking at the other end of the curve? 400? I mean that seems even smaller to me because of the population here, but I can see this is little even for a smaller country. 400 is basically just my neighbourhood lol. That ratio is insane though.

I'm not surprised that people don't give a shit. Even here where you'd think people were educated, they still do stupid things and didn't really listen to the lockdown guidelines that were in place. And as soon as it got sunny, they all flocked to the beaches and parks with no care in the world. Luckily though, despite all this foolishness, it looks like the worst is behind is...generally speaking. There were one or two cities that had to be locked down again because of massive outbreaks.

For sure!

The cases are still increasing, it's terrible.
Yeah, it was a joke - 400 is extremely little, but the ratio is just unbelievable.
They announced some restrictions now, but who knows.

Ah yes, the UK wasn't doing too well, but at least you're on the second half of the curve.
What's left to see is if the virus mutates similarly to influenza.

Did you have to quarantine when you got back?
You're only getting restrictions now?

Yeah we'll see about that. Now that the lockdown restrictions are loosening, they're introducing the mandatory use of masks when going into stores from 24th July. I'm just glad I can work from home, I don't have to mix with people unless I go supermarket.

You wouldn't need photos if you were there too.

Why Netherlands specifically? Are you going to see @MarmaladeSky without telling us?

That's actually pretty decent. Fair play. Though I think it'd be a shame to come to Europe and only see one country.

It is? Which one are you taking?

No, they removed it a week or two before I returned.
We had restrictions prior, but then they were lifted, and now they're partially returning.

Yeah we'll see about that. Now that the lockdown restrictions are loosening, they're introducing the mandatory use of masks when going into stores from 24th July. I'm just glad I can work from home, I don't have to mix with people unless I go supermarket.

Yeah, that sounds very practical.

 

[goldb]

ikr! what are your top 5 best european countries to visit?

I want to go to Iceland, Italy, Spain, Greece and I'll probably add Croatia there. That would likely change if you asked me again.

 

[Kiki]

ah the Mediterranean gang

It is? Which one are you taking?

yes, sweet and minty it's written "antasida doen" (antasida = antacid). do you know about it? Aluminum hydroxide 200 mg, magnesium hydroxide 200 mg
