Global pandemic came in unplanned while we were busy making plans of our own. We all are a little tired of being self-quarantined amidst corona crisis. While we are fantasizing about being on that trip we were supposed to be on, attending our graduation ceremony, meeting up friends or dining out; we all understand how severe the COVID-19 situation is and the best safety measure is to stay at home.
One thing we are not short on is “TIME”. So here we have made a list of 5 interesting things you can do during quarantine that were put off before because of lack of time.
