City Series –  Fazila Mansuri in Bombay, We the Isolationists (197th Corona Diary)

Our corona diary.

[Text and photo by Fazila Mansuri]

I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see myself exploring and knowing about the people of my city, taking pictures and writing about them on my Instagram, which is not possible for the time being. I failed to take admission this year in Master’s degree in Journalism. But I’m grateful for the hobbies that I can pursue at home, along with spending time in the family.

These days I strongly relate to Anne Frank, whom I love as passionately as a blogger I know loves Emily Dickinson.

I open my eyes and I see myself satisfied that even if I can’t pursue journalism for now, I’m at least writing.

“We the Isolationists” series urges folks from any part of the world to share a brief diary starting with “I close my eyes in my self-isolation from Corona… and I see…” Not more than 100 words. With a horizontal-sized selfie, along with your city name… please mail to me at mayankaustensoofi@gmail.com.
