Now that we’re all spending a lot more time at home, video calls have become our window to the outside world. Whether it’s that Monday morning team meeting or Friday night virtual wine club with friends, most of our face to face interaction has been confined to Zoom with our living room, unfinished home office or pending DIY projects providing the backdrop!

- Attractions
