Is it May yet?
I wish. Looks like I’m currently stuck in Australia with no flight back. Will get back to this project as soon they let me. Hope all of you are well!
Oh bugger, which city you are 'forced' to stay in Aus? Any end in sight?

I'm staying in my van in the bush, somewhere down on the south east coast, mostly in one place and not moving around. Could be worse, there’s not too many people around and the corona thing seems to pass by better than in most other places.

There Haven’t been many flights in or out in recent weeks, so i’d be interested as well.

Still, staying in a van on the coast sounds pretty good. For anyone not familiar with Australia, do a Google image search for New South Wales South Coast.

Flying was super weird, with flight crew wearing full biohazard protection suits/masks/eye protection. Not sure what I was thinking flying home was a good idea, but I’m home now. Things felt much safer on the beach, that’s for sure. Now, I’m quarantined for 14 days. Make it June for the Jazzmaster project. :'(

it's been about three years since I posted, as I've been trapped in the synthesizer wormhole. If you haven't yet started with synthesizers: Don't! It's a trap!
The only regret I have about getting into synths is that I wish I did it earlier... much earlier.
Stay safe!
