Date of publication :2020-03-25 14:30

Today, COVID-19 is affecting 196 countries and a cruise ship around the world. In other words, all global citizens are facing the war against coronavirus. hihilulu collects a list of free cultural activities for your homestay. 


Governments, including the British government, which had taken the approach of herd immunity, have more or less announced isolation measures. From big amount of fines to imprisonment, staying at home becomes the code for responsible citizens. Medical staff these two days also are calling on social media: We stayed at work for you, you stay at home for us. 


Since we have to stay at home, we have to cope with this unexpected holiday with a positive attitude. Today hihilulu is to sort out the various free resources for a creative staying at home.
