One thing this pandemic has brought about is this unavoidable uneasiness that has stirred in everyone. People want to feel a sense of normalcy, everyone’s itching to get out of their houses and return to life as usual. There is a renewed sense of consciousness and appreciation for travelling that was somewhat lost in the rubble of living.

A lot of countries are vying for a resurgence of tourism to inject some much needed verve into their economies, but is it safe to travel now?.
