I used to travel a lot, sometimes I only got to stay at home a few days in a month, I missed all statutory holidays, needless to say, most of my weekends too but that has changed. Given I WFH now but I am not able to travel to the countryside/beach. Luckily, I am able to spend more time grilling and smoking Texas BBQ ribs. :D

Can't say more difficult, just frustrating traveling home to see family has become so expensive with quarantine and increased air, making it a no goer.
Traveling around Cambodia no issues except between March- May with restrictions, these just meant staying somewhere longer than expected nothing to bad
I have tended to stay home alot more to though.
