6ft Apart. Stay Away!! Stay Safe
So I picked some words of how it felt moving countries and like my experience in isolation was one of the ones that stood up the most because of COVID, the different languages and everything. So it was a whole process of first how it felt of being alone and being separated from everyone else, kind of being in your own space, a darker space while they had fun and not really getting what they had. And that connected to COVID-19 during the pandemic of you had to be alone in your own little bubble, so surrounded by people yet so alone. And from that, I moved into the bigger picture of everyone having their own bubble, staying away to stay safe, and six feet apart to social distancing.
