If you are taking this pandemic seriously and your job allows you to work from home, perhaps you have been self-isolating for the past few months. Having to stay at home when you were supposed to go to work or school may sound like a great unexpected vacation. However, it often turns to be very boring.

Staying home can quickly become boring, irritating, or chaotic. Those who have a hobby and can practice it these days are lucky. On the other hand, experts recommend looking for some activities that keep people busy.

Therefore, Foreigner.fi asked the readers in a Twitter poll: How do you spend your free time during the Covid-19 pandemic?

In the poll, the respondents were given four options which were 'Reading’, 'Watching TV', ‘Practicing sport’ and Other (please write)’.

The mini poll was answered by 36 readers and 38.9% of the readers choose watching TV. 33.3% said others and 16.7% said reading. Only 11.1% of readers choose practicing sport.

About the reader’s comments, one reader said, “Back to work.”

Another reader mentioned reading books.

One reader said, “Twitter”.

Although the poll was launched in Twitter, we got also comments from readers via Facebook:

“Facebook, Netflix, Whatsapp and Messenger” (FB)

Foreigner.fi is going to ask a different question about Finland every Friday on its official Twitter account @foreigner.fi

Foreigner.fi readers prefer to watch TV while at home due to Covid-19
