Sort of get to feel what everyone's up to.

And in the end, we just sort of went with the flow.

And we went from the Friday to the Monday.

We always rent a big house, get the comfort and the accommodation sorted.

And we prioritize food and coffee as well.

So those are the two big ones that we can all sort of agree on.

And then anything else that comes along with it is a bonus.

You know, we sort of like to cook and really use the accommodation, I guess, you know, and have breakfast together and just switch off our phones and really bond over the food and just catch up with each other because we don't exactly all get to get the same room as often as we'd like to, you know.

And we did have a couple activities planned, but it wasn't...

For me, for example, I'm the one who wants to be outdoors, hiking, swimming, do the waterfalls.

They'd be really switched on, you know.

So we had to sort of compromise and see what people wanted to do.

And we were in Donegal, we were in the Sleave League Peninsula.

And instead of doing the hike and the viewpoint up to it, just knowing how busy that is now with coaches and tours and everything, we decided to take the boat tour instead, which was a lot more quieter for us.

and we're lucky enough we had the boat to ourselves and we even had the chance to swim off the boat you know which is quite nice so i think it was like a two-hour tour and it's just one of those times when you're like oh my god we've seen sleeveless cliffs from this different point of view that's not a lot of people would

Not necessarily think of, but they just think Sleeve League, right, we'll do the tour, see the viewpoint, do the hike.

Different way of doing it.

That's it, you know, and it's even bringing in the more local businesses that might get the same.

buzz as the other places will get you know and the thing with Sleeve League we have the Rusty Mackerel pub and restaurant right beside it as well so it's going from the boats take your time go for lunch have a little drink and half your day is gone then sort of thing you know but it's those small moments that you actually remember rather than spending four or five hours hiking thinking oh my god this is you know when you think about it it's just healthy to sort of it's almost forcing yourself to relax as well isn't it stop running around trying to do stuff

Exactly, especially living in Dublin as well, like for my own industry, you're switched on all the time trying to chase and shoot content and do everything, you know, so switching off can be hard.
