How do you pass time during lockdown in the United States?

Loïc

Being locked up at home because of the coronavirus in the United states isn't the happiest thing in the world...

But fortunately, there are ways to entertain yourself !

What are some of the ways you've found to cheat boredom?

Hoping you're safe and sound.

I am listening to music and watching movies. I also read reviews of different products like mobile phones, headsets, and other electronic items to keep myself busy since I was a trainee electrical engineer and I dont have job at home.

Hi Loic, that’s a great question!

I personally have some great habits that I started during COVID lockdown:

- working out at home with dumbbells
- walking and running
- started a new eating regiment for weight loss (I’ve lost 28 lbs!)
- started new hobbies like reading, writing and listening to new topics on podcasts

If you need any help with ideas, just let me know!

Cheers,
Mike
