This article I found in La Vanguardia, a generally neutral sometimes conservative news source, touches on people staying connected during these tough Coronavirus times. While the government of Spain has recently extended the lockdown until May 9th, families continue to be seperated. This is a hard time for everyone, and I feel for the people of Catalonia. A crucial part of Catalan culture is being together, spending time with family at a cafe, the park, and church.
This article talks about how friends and family are using technology to cope with the separation; they play games online together, zoom large family lunches, and stream church services online. The Catalan citizens talk about the importance of checking in on eachother, making sure everyone is okay and ending with “Lo importante es saber que seguimos conectados”, translating to “the important thing is knowing that we will continue to stay connected”.
