I think I've posted about this already, but the culture of | |
preparedness in Switzerland is something I'm still getting used to | |
It's easy to think about multiple reasons why the notion of being | |
prepared for all types of emergencies (from natural to social, fro | |
astronomical to biological) is not common in Brazil. But here even | |
the government has a website [1] and a guide [2] on how to prepare | |
one's self and family for emergencies. | |
I'm adapting and learning to prepare our family and this week is | |
proving to be a great lesson for us. We were caught by surprise by | |
multiple problems and we're still trying to figure out a way out. | |
It's been hard to sleep at night, due to concern, and I can't help | |
but wonder how I could have better prepared ourselves for this | |
situation. | |
I know we'll work something out and I should look at the positive | |
side of how much we're learning right now, but this is easier to b | |
done after we're out of the woods. | |
