After the first pandemic summer, I was overwhelmed by the uncertainty of things and decided that I needed time with my family in Italy, to re-stabilize my mental and physical health.
While I was there, the pandemic was a back and forth between things getting better and everyone needing to stay within their county.
During a moment when it looked as though the situation was more under control, I had the opportunity to take a day trip to Venice with my family. It was an amazing opportunity to be able to travel, even if not very far.
