The Australian travel bubble will be a lifeline for many businesses that’ve been hit hard by covid-19. 

Hopefully bubbles will soon be open to other parts of the Pacific, allowing some of the workers NZ food producers rely on back in as well.

Having had the luxury of being able to work right through the pandemic, it’s worth pausing to think of those whose livelihoods were snatched away from them when the doors were slammed shut.

We have all given things up in the past year, some much more than others, but those sacrifices have got us where we are today.

Our focus now must turn to reshaping what we do to fit into a much-changed world.
