“I’ve honestly loved it. I think that this has been the longest trip I’ve ever done. In total it might be like five weeks in the end, so it’s definitely a new thing for me, and it’s probably gonna be my life from now on, and I’m honestly just taking every week as it comes. The trip has just flown by because we’ve just been focusing on the craft every single day and taking care.”
