In this vlog, I show you a day in my life locked down in Beijing, China.

Over a week ago I found out my hutong/community was locked down when I went to send a delivery. Since then, we have received no notice, no explanation, and the lockdown continues with no expected end date.

I find myself repeating an endless loop of activities: work, clean, walk our dog Baozi, get daily tests, and make food. In these activities, I try to find order in chaos, establish routine in uncertainty, and try my best to stay hopeful that everything will be okay.

To all those out there who are still struggling with lockdown - hang in there, you are not alone🌻
