COVID has inadvertently brought many people more in tune with their local community. Instead of daily commuting or even international travel, we’ve stayed home more. Where I live in Fiji, our recent containment has meant that for almost everything we want - it has to come locally. The only online shopping I do is calling the neighborhood artist (who also sell honey), or messaging folks I know to see who has gone fishing recently. There is no Amazon. There is no way to access the large supermarkets in the capital.
