A work trip to New Delhi right when the global corona pandemic broke out and waiters with face masks were a strange sight. We had to reschedule our return flight to get back via Doha to Finland. The guant teddy bear at Doha Airport looks as if it knew what a nightmare was starting. This was also the final Finnips entrance exam trip before online exams. Therefore another era ended. At home a quarantine of two weeks awaited. #beforepandemic #finnips #newdelhi #worktrip2020 #travel #travelphotography #savingmemories #covid19
