About stopping to speak

I had a teacher who I used to hang out with to practice speaking, but when Covid-19 popped up we had to stop meeting. I missed talking with him a lot, but our speaking classes are not safe anymore. So much for my practicing:(
Since I work at a bookshop, I occasionally speak with customers in English, but it doesn't happen often and we don't have real conversations, just short chit-chats about books or about how to get to places around the city. I enjoy being able to have them, but it's not enough. I would like to immerse myself in the whole English experience; that's why I miss traveling abroad so badly because every day I don't need to speak in English is another nail in my language learning motivation coffin.
