Kapanlagi.com - Celebrating Eid al-Fitr had to be done in the midst of a pandemic situation. This also meant that many people couldn't go home and gather with their families. Like singer Isyana Sarasvati who had to spend Eid only with her husband in Jakarta because of the travel ban.

"(Eid) at home only, just the two of us. Because I couldn't go back to Bandung," said Isyana, met in the Pondok Indah area, Jakarta, on Monday (17/5/2021).

1. Not Too Sad

Although she couldn't feel the warmth of celebrating Eid with a large family gathering, Isyana admitted that she was not too sad. Because her husband, who is a doctor, did not have duty on Eid day.

"I'm happy, really happy. Even though I couldn't go back to Bandung, but I can be accompanied by my husband," she said.

2. Not the First Time

According to Isyana, this is not the first time she has not returned home for Eid. Last year, she also did not experience the gathering of Eid with her extended family due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

"It's been 2 years since I haven't returned home, haven't returned home during the pandemic," she said.

The ongoing pandemic reminds us not to be complacent in implementing health protocols. #IngatPesanIbu (Remember Mother's Message), wear a mask, wash hands frequently, and maintain distance.
