Hi Team, On the way home and reflecting on an incredible trip. Firstly a huge congratulations to Paul and the Niche team for pulling a wonderful event  together, so much care and consideration into all the events and small details that we’ll treasure long after the Bali tan fades. To the sponsors, thank you so much for being a part of such a wonderful initiative, and genuinely and generously supporting the future of our industry. To my fellow mentors - I’ve admired you all, even before meeting you and feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to get to know the gorgeous people behind your amazing work, I look forward to staying in touch. Finally to the super talented and inspiring top 30 - it was wonderful to meet and share this experience with you, so excited to take this forward, learn with you, and watch your big beautiful futures evolve. Thank you all so much

Feeling your pain…. Also landed in Sydney this being and right back into it. Also wanted to thank Niche. Pulling this off as well as you did was a mammoth effort and I thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to connect in with the incredible next gen of designers. Also to the sponsors. Great to spend time with guys outside of the craziness of the studio. To my fellow mentors. Loved meeting you and hanging out together. You are beautiful people. Finally to the famous 30. You are such an inspiring bunch. Really looking to follow all of your upcoming successes…. And most of all enjoy your careers. We are part of one of the most exciting professions.
