There have been several regulations placed in Ecuador since the COVID-19 outbreak began. One of them was that people could only leave their house to get food or medicine. Also, some vehicles could only go out on a specific day dictated by the last number in their license plate. This caused a very sharp decline in the number of cars that were out in the streets. Many people would go to buy food in bicycles since they could not take the car out. This reduced pollution in Quito and the sky was very clear.
In Quito there are strict social distancing regulations. People are not allowed to gather in large groups and must always wear masks in public places.

This video was recorded by my father on his way back home after buying groceries. It shows an active volcano called Cotopaxi which can be seen clearly.
I am a sophomore in Union College so this is the second spring that I have spent on campus. Last spring was definitely an experience for me because I am not used to winter so when winter was over and all the students where excited about the spring so was I. Everyone is excited for alumni weekend, springfest, and so many other activities that we get to do with our friends. We also get to say goodbye to the seniors that are leaving. This spring could not have been more different since it is only about 60 students currently on campus. In the beginning it was very sad to walk around the blooming trees and see that there was no one else around where under regular circumstances people would be outside all day. I definitely got to experience spring differently since I would be the only one walking around an empty campus. The garden where students would usually go for picnics or just to hang out was still beautiful but it was definitely missing some life.

Social distancing has been hard for everyone specially for me because I am away from my family in Schenectady. But this day was particularly nice because I had a meeting regarding this project and my project instructor brought her dog Finn. This was the first time that I meet my instructor Sarah in person so I was very excited but it was still a bit weird because under regular circumstances this meeting would have been held in her office but we did it in the benches on campus. I got to see how Omeka works while keeping a safe distance for each other. It was definitely interesting. Naturally we had to keep six feet between us but not necessarily with the dog. It was particularly nice for me because I really miss my dog and with all the stress I did not really think about how nice it would be to relax for a while with a dog. It definitely made my day.
