Day three: 15.10.13
How should I begin as that it was again a weary short night…
Last night we were visited by a local dance group named Border Morris. They made
a great show and what is most important they gave us lesions about the traditional
dance.
On the picture you can see how we got connected.
But the morning today was awesome in totally worthed to wake
up. I will not write too much because the picture below is saying everything. You have to know that it is autumn and we are
in England…
So it was a perfect day to have a trip around and see the local
entrepreneurships. First is a local shop named Hopes by Longtown. We discussed about
it with Christina Hope about her idea and her work and specially the problems she
is dealing with. These are getting younger customers and how to make a better advertisement.
The second entrepreneurship we visited is named White
Hoywood Farm Restaurant. The idea is simple, to serve the customers home grown
food. The main problem is to increase the customers.
Everyone who is in these are I highly recommend to go and visit
the place. The food is simple made and taste great. Not to forget they offer
bed and breakfast.
The last visit was at Wiggly Wiggler I would cold it a multi
entrepreneurship. Basically it is big farm, which is producing grass seeds for
golf, tennis… The grow worms for compost, and started with a florist company,
and got many the awards. Specially it is mass customization.
After lunch I have to admit to take a short nap, to be ready
for the entertainment evening with NFYEC. They prepared funny games and we or I
had the opportunity to know some more people to know.
Under today’s line I have to say, I needed the moving around
and it was great to take a closer look at all the business. Not to forget it
was a super sunny day.
I'm glad you are enjoying this week! :D
