What do you see from your window? #StayAtHome

At times like this we take comfort in the simpler things.

Social media often has a bad reputation as it encourages us to disconnect from reality and enter a world of criticism, shaming and fakery. But in these COVID-19 days, weeks and now even months, social media has had its moment to shine. Staying connected has never been more important and with social distancing rules staying put we need a place to connect and reach our family, friends and even people we barely even know.

I was recently invited to a page called What do you see from your window? #StayAtHome. I’m always a little hesitate to join pages like this as it clogs up my Facebook feed and Im forever scrolling until a reach something I actually want to see but something made me click accept and i’, so glad I did!

The message of #StayAtHome is very important. To see all of us, from everywhere, uniting together for this cause is amazing.

We’re a great group of people connecting from 143 countries. Call your friends to upload the view from their windows. Let’s spread the message everywhere, and still #StayAtHome.

What do you see from your window?

It shows the moments in our life we usually take for granted and even the moments we sometimes miss.

Here’s a few of my favourites;
