And it was an amazing trip. Let me tell you about it because it's very relevant to the podcast. The way this trip came to be is that in Episode 89, I had Dr. George Andre Cardoso on the podcasts and we were discussing Digital VertiPreps IE, how to scan when you do the BOPT, or the shoulder less technique, they're slightly different, right? So one's shoulder, this one's edgeless. We can talk about that another time. But essentially, this crown preparation or bridge preparation technique, which is pretty much all the rage at the moment, and for good reason. You know, I'm a big believer in vertical preps, they are much more conservative, they help you to gain ferulle, they help you help you to preserve the horizontal ferulle, and their soft tissues. Love it. So I'm a big fan of this prep. I've been doing it for some years now. But I knew that so many dentists in the UK wanted to learn. And so in that episode, Episode 89, Andre says, Hey, why don't you guys come on over and we can do something, we were just chatting. And I was like, Yeah, that sounds great, you know, maybe if anyone's interested if you want to go on his website and register your interest. [Jaz]Fast forward, maybe six to eight months later, and we had enough people interested that I'm actually organized 16 dentists. They happen to be all from the UK. And we flew over to Porto in Portugal, and George Andre Cardoso and his team. Thank you, Catia. Thank you, Joanna. Thank you, Gustavo. They treated us to a fantastic course on vertical preparation hands on. So morning was theory, afternoon hands on. All the dentists that came walked away with their own bur kits. But the best thing about it all was the people, the company because it reminds me very much of being at Andre's dad's restaurant, his dad seafood restaurant in Porto, which is part of a package, you know, you come. We do a course. We include lunch. We include dinner at Andre's Dad's seafood restaurant in Espinho. It was phenomenal. And we're there at dinner. And George Andre Cardoso, he shares some life philosophy, we're talking philosophy. And he says Jaz, you know, I came to realize that life is not about the destination. And I said, Yeah, of course not. We all know it's about the journey. He goes, No, life is not about the destination. Life is not even about the journey. Life is about the company. And at that moment, with this packed restaurant full of all these colleagues, which are some of them I've never met before. They are Protruserati, which I met for the first time, which was amazing. It made me realize, Wow, this is special. You know, when you go away for trips, it reminded me of being at Uni. We just got these ski trips at dental schools and t...
