Let’s face it, so many of us just aren’t going anywhere this summer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We kept waiting and waiting for the Covid 19 pandemic to leave us quickly, but that just didn’t happen. Even if the pandemic has slowed down where you are currently living, maybe your home country is at a different (worse) stage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of us don’t even feel comfortable flying on an airplane at the moment. So now that some flights maybe exist to get you to your home country this summer, we’ve just succumbed to the idea that we aren’t going anywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your host country home is the place where many of us will be during the next few months of summer vacation. What will you do?! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At ISC, we are really curious to see what our members are up to being that many of us are stuck in our host countries this summer. As you lounge around your home or explore your host country a bit more than usual, take a picture with your smart phone of what you are seeing and doing. We’ll chose the top 3 photos that are the most interesting to win the photo contest prizes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
