So I always look at festivals and I always want to go because I'm an outgoing person.
00:07
So the price, yeah, it does sometimes put me off, but you look at the aftermath,
00:11
they've got to clean up all everyone's mats, all the tents and stuff if they've stayed there.
00:16
So it does come in the price, really.
00:18
I agree with the prices to an extent, but then some people who just want to enjoy their time,
00:23
they've got to pay for travelling to wherever it is as well, it comes expensive.
00:27
I think so there can be chances, especially if that person is a student, like 120 is a lot.
00:33
And if in case they are not earning currently, that can be a problem.
00:37
But if they are here to explore, I think so cost is fine.
00:43
But there should be like some offer or some kind of, yeah, kind of offer for students, especially.
00:49
And it's not a lot, but there are some travelling expenses included.
00:57
That's why people don't prefer it.
00:59
I don't expect it!
01:03
Yeah, it's the wrong time project.
