This is pretty significant to me, I live in the a place where viability is not very good and spent almost 2h30m in my daily commute, plus 8h40m working.

Since the lockdown and the "working-from-home" revolution I've had the time to start working out, sleep more and better, cook my own food, not being a complete zombie in the evenings, spend more time with my girlfriend...

Of course I'm in a position to say this because I'm also lucky, I have a beautiful home in a nice place.

I always took the reality of the commute and working in the office for a fact, but my productivity also sky rocketed in this period.

I know that sometime soon I'll be back in the office, but it will be incredibly hard to go back to my previous life and give up all of this.

What particularly saddens me is the idea of how wonderful fatherhood could be working from home, and all the time with my kids I'll have to give up again when I'll go back to spend 11h outdoors daily.
