The Coronavirus has up and done it - it's forced most of us to cancel travel plans, stay home, and daydream about the magical day when we can get back to adding stamps to our passports. 

Traveling is no longer considered a leisure activity - it's only for those who cannot find a way out of it. The CDC recommends traveling, only if you really have to and to exercise caution when doing so, like washing your hands for 20+ seconds with soap and warm water and by maintaining social distancing from others as much as possible.

Also, you should beware there are a number of countries with travel bans to limit the spread of the illness. 

Right now, the best thing you can do is: stay inside. 

So what does a traveler with a heart of wanderlust do inside ALL day and ALL night?
