Lifestyle Changes In The Pandemic: On Pet Adoption And Van Life
The COVID-19 pandemic has not only shifted the way we work; it also forced us to make lifestyle adjustments. But now that restrictions are slowly being lifted and life is getting back to normal the way we are used to, do we go back to how we are before or carry on with the new lifestyle changes we made? In this episode, Jason Wrobel and Whitney Lauritsen take a closer look into the many lifestyle changes people made in the first fifteen months of the pandemic and what trends they see now that will affect our future. They talk about the explosion in animal adoptions and the problems shelters face now as people go back to their lifestyles. They also talk about the van life that gained popularity online during this pandemic—from how people opted to go houseless to start living on the road, to the drawbacks they have discovered, to how being a Vanlifer is faring now. Join Jason and Whitney in this conversation where they dig deep into the lifestyle changes people made out of fear and loneliness in this pandemic and where they are now that life is moving back to the way it used to be.
