Movie nights together
Starting at the beginning of february in 2021, during the pandemic I and a friend watch a movie. We find it on Youtube/ Viafree/ SVT play and then put it on at the exact same time, chatting on FaceBook meanwhile so it's like we watch it together.
Of course, we can now meet in person. But we liked doing this and still do it a couple of times a month or so.
We decide on movie together, but every other week (the odd number movies in the list) she finds one. And every other (even numbers in the list) I do.
