Eleven days of Easter holidays and Spring break has been both relaxing and rejuvenating. Usually, we would take the car and drive anywhere, but the pandemic hasn’t slowed down yet, so we decided to stay put. And the pain of staying home is to plan about what to eat constantly. I am not a whiz […]
How to Work Remotely and Stay Motivated
