Wilfred Fernandes, a native of  Mangaluru, India  was caught up in the lockdown during the pandemic when he went there, for his annual vacation from Abu Dhabi.  Unable to return back, he lost his job, but that didn't deter his morale, he decided to go back to his roots and started cultivating on his ancestral farmland, which was barren for 20 years.   Wilfred is not 'all-work-and-no-play'. He has composed music for three albums . Before going to the middle east, he also volunteered as a choir master for many parishes and also served in Abu Dhabi as Konkani choir master for 13 years. Inspite of his ongoing struggles  as a farmer and not having his job back, he keeps himself upbeat and  says \\u201cI try to be happy in whichever situation I am, I don\\u2019t want to limit myself saying I\\u2019m happy in one thing\\u201d Let's hear his inspiring story.
