Tree-Hole: Voice from Voila

Mum, you should have seen the recent news that the infection rate here has gone up again.


I was planning to return home in September after finishing my thesis, but now it seems as if the pandemic will break out again and there may be another lockdown. I've just checked that airfares are still extremely expensive and I don't know when I'll be able to go home, as there are no direct flights and the tickets are so pricey. So now I can't go home even though I want to.


China's policies, flight meltdowns, health code applications and all these things are really making it harder for us international students to go home.


I know you want me to go back home early, but it's getting really difficult now, not only do I have to apply for a health code , but I also have to do all sorts of tests and I'm worried about whether I'll be able to go through them in time, it's really challenging.


Hopefully the general situation will get better again so that I can go home soon.


妈,你应该看见最近这个新闻讲说这边的感染率又上升了。


本来打算说能在9月份写完毕业论文之后就有机会可以回国,但是现在感觉好像新的一轮的疫情又会爆发,有可能又会封锁,然后我先去查机票价格还是居高不下,也不知道什么时候能够回家,也没有什么直飞的航班,价格又那么贵……所以,现在哪怕是我想回家也不能回家。


其实国内一些政策,还有一些航班熔断,一些申请健康码这些事情也真的是对于我们留学生回家这件事情真的是难上加难。


我也知道你很想我早点回国,但是现在真的是难度在慢慢的变得更难,回去的时候肯定还要去做很多各种检测,不仅是要申请健康码,而且还要做各种检测,我也很担心自己能不能及时去完成这些事情,感觉真的是挑战重重。


所以希望接下来整体的环境能有好转,这样我也能尽快回家。
