I write this from lockdown in Spain, one of the countries most cruelly affected by the coronavirus. The harsh impacts of the disease are all too familiar and I worry for my family and friends that I am currently far away from, due to the circumstances.
However, I am grateful to this beautiful country and the absolute strength and support of the friends I have made me understand that I am safe, have a place to lay my head safe at night, food, and security. I know this isn’t the case for everyone. It was by chance I stumbled across an article from the Guardian, amongst the flood of COVID-19 news, that I was made aware of Cyclone Harold that recently ripped through the Pacific nations of Vanuatu, Fiji, Togo and the Solomon Islands.
