You leave your home to go “away” for a few weeks and believe that everything will be Puuurfecct.
You tell yourself you’ll relax. Take massages. Eat out (without complaining).

Join Liz and Bri this week as they open a can of sausages (small ones) and share the highs and lows of being away from home for 5 weeks.
They reveal the gourmet and gross food they’ve eaten in New Zealand, the things they’ve ditched and discovered since being away, and Brian blurts out his problem with little dogs…
