While people all over the world are emptying supermarkets of toilet paper and produce in preparation for the “coronapocalypse” (as we’ve seen some dramatic folks describe the COVID-19 outbreak), Nat Ho has a very different game plan to sustain himself just in case everything really does go to hell (the key words are “just in case”).
Hint: think The Martian.
“You’re gonna laugh at me!” Nat chuckled in embarrassment during our recent WhatsApp call, when our conversation turned to corona-prep. The 35-year-old has been living in Los Angeles, California since July last year, when he embarked on a music production course at the Icon Collective College of Music.
At the time of writing, there are over 9,345 confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the United States, and the global spike has led Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs to issue an advisory for Singaporeans studying overseas to consider returning home.
