hello and welcome to my vlog if you're
new here my name is antoinette
and i am in valencia if you're wondering
why i'm wearing these
pink shades
it's because
the situation is not great
and
to be honest with you i just
i just needed something
to make things a little bit better a
little bit brighter and with a little
bit with a little more positive color
around them
and
today i'll give you a quick update on
the restrictions here in valencia
i'm still here
and
i don't know why but the local
government has been
quite stubborn they are renewing
their
restrictions until february 28th
everything was
with you know with the kobe passports
masks and all that was until
january 31st and then they voted and now
it's extended
even though the cases are not
not so many
i don't know why in barcelona on another
hand they dropped all restrictions
they decided that this is not working
it's not creating the impact that they
expected
therefore there is no reason for that
so all the leisurely activities bars
restaurants
gyms it's all great
they're not going to be restricted
anymore now i'm not saying
if you should or you shouldn't get
vaccinated
that's a right everyone should
have
and decision everyone should be able to
make
but it's not great when the government
tells you what to do and i came across
an article about holland
where people actually protested because
they were allowing hair salons and nail
salons to be open but not cultural
venues like
concert halls or galleries or museums
and people cannot enjoy
any of these
places where they can nourish their soul
so they did a great protest when they
brought a chair
into the concert
as if they're a hair stylist or a nail
salon into the museum
and it's such a creative way to say you
know enough it's enough and just
everything is so confusing
no one knows what really helps and what
doesn't but when government tells you
what you can and you cannot do i think
people react and usually
it's not
ideal
so
here in valencia otherwise things
continue as before
the sky is blue
there's not a single cloud here
but it's pretty upsetting that most of
the places you know they require
certificates and
to be honest with you in rustar farm it
is a hipster place it's a place where
people protest and
they have their voices heard so they're
doing things a little bit different here
and there's some places i'm not gonna
say any names so i don't want to get
them in trouble but they're just not
not complying
and
people are tired people don't want to
they just start we're all tired of this
whole thing and
mixed
emotions being you know restricted
being scared of
that
and
just not being able to move freely it
keeps
damaging and paralyzing our minds and
people travel less they enjoy their
lives less and and i don't think that's
a that's a good thing
so
i'm not saying you know take all the
measures that you need to take
wash your hands put your masks where you
need to
but
you know we we still need to we need to
do things we need to move freely and go
on with our lives
so i encourage you you know to not be
scared of doing what you planned i will
be going to a new city very soon
and
hopefully you'll join me

show you around i open a patreon page
