Summary/Abstract: Our Life in the Times of the Pandemic. A Few Words About the Project reports on the research activities of the Ethnographic Museum in Krakow after the announcement of the COVID-19 pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. Then the Museum created the project under the name „Our Life in the times of the Pandemic” as an answer to the ques-tion of documenting a rapidly changing reality in the pandemic. As part of this initiative, an on-line questionnaire was created, consisting of 45 questions concerning, inter alia: rhythm of everyday life, work, studies, social life. There were also questions whether the perception of home and relationships with other people have changed during the pandemic, as well as questions about the images from the pandemic that will stay in your memory for a long time. The Museum gathered over 1500 responses and on that basis created so-called „Wycinki” — excerpts from the research. Some of them are presented in this article.
