This is a different type trip because last time I was here I don't remember a single goddamn thing. So now we are doing turmeric shots Turmeric. Turmeric, whatever, you know, guys, English isn't my first language. Come on, like, go easy on me, okay? The Americans legit think, like, Irish people, English isn't their first language. I do, I love messing around with it. And now we're going to do a ginger and lemon shot. So I weirdly like these bad-tasting shots. It's just like a thing I enjoy doing. Mmm. Just, it's just, mmm, love it, more. Now we are getting a big huge double chicken chop salad. It's gonna be here in a few minutes. I'm gonna switch off cam for a little bit. Get this beautiful meal into us, and then I think we're going for a little cycle later. It is coming up to evening time, and the plan is the boyos are going for a nice leisurely cycle here. We're going just towards the end of the beach, like the W in Barcelona. Oh, here we go! What a transition! We got cocktail making class, and if you're an SDK, it's really class 101 with the SDK guys. Absolutely amazing. The perfect day, and it's just getting started, people. What a transition! Oh my God, yes! Like the video for that transition, my God. We just arrived in style. So there's like Mercedes, Range Rovers, an F-Type just drove out, and we just rock up on our rented bikes. Let's roll up in style. So we're gonna go for a drink now in Soho House. It's gonna be really nice. Yeah, sun's just coming down now, so perfect day. Look at these niggas with attitudes. Look at these niggas with attitudes. So here is the head man himself. It's Komodo Joe. I'm presuming that's where you got the company's name. Yeah, exactly.
There's many different There's a few stories about where we got the name. We tend to tell a different one every time.
There we go, because there's so many stories to tell. But, um, so why don't you introduce yourself to the channel and tell them what we're doing this week?
How we doing? So, Joe from Komodo, as Rob said. Komodo is basically a creative agency. We travel all around the world with influencers on sort of monthly trips, working with any brand, any client, and at the moment we're in Miami. With this lovely squad. This is our first male-only trip, so big pressure on the boys.
Absolutely.
We're gonna absolutely nail it. We've got an awesome itinerary lined up right now. We're about to go down the beach and do a workout, get some awesome content down there. We're gonna hit the gym a little later. We've got Mustang cars lined up. We're going to a basketball game. We're getting out on the boats. We're doing Miami as it should be done. And yeah, we're looking forward to it.
Ultimate lad trip. And, um, so a common theme on my channel is, of course, fitness and travel, but it's also entrepreneurship and business as well. So I know my people are gonna love this. So do you want to just tell them quickly, like, how you started We Are Komodo and, you know, where you came up with the idea? Because it's like, travel the world with cool people, partying and having fun. Like, people want to know how to do that.
Exactly. Yeah, we basically kind of just fell into it in a way. We had another brand before, uh, it was actually a floaty company selling, uh, giant inflatable animals. And, um, Yeah, we just started doing marketing. The best thing we did was marketing. We started getting away, we started doing trips. We did our first ever trip, we flew a bunch of people out to Bali, got some massive villas out there, and the best thing was our content. We started doing photos, videos, started gaining some traction. Next thing we went to Ibiza with another group, and then next thing we knew other brands wanted to get on board. They were saying, um, can we join your trip? Can we send some product on your trip? And we thought, you know what, we could just set this whole There's a whole sort of realm of the industry that hasn't really been explored yet, so we just went all in, balls deep, and didn't stop from there, basically. Here we are 13 months later in Miami with the boys.
There you go, so 13 months, it's not even like, you know, it's going so fast, so I can't wait to see where the company is going to be in a year's time. So, right. What a day from waking up, shooting all that awesome content, Sprints on the beach, going for a cycle afterwards, going for drinks in Soho House, going to do that cocktail making class, which was hilarious. I was so bad at it, which is like surprising for an Irishman. And then going for dinner in STK, that's what we just did there. So now I'm chilling in my beautiful hotel room and just watching a little bit of Christian, and I'm gonna watch some Max now after this as well. To catch up with the homies. So tomorrow we are going on a yacht, we're gonna have yacht day, and then we're going to a Miami Heat game. So it's going to be an awesome vlog. And again, yo, I hope, uh, today was interesting. Hope you guys enjoyed it because I'm enjoying making these vlogs. So I am just about to send this footage off to my boy Blaz, who let's all give a huge shout out to. And please go over to his Instagram, leave a comment and just say, yo, you know, you and Rob are doing great things. It would honestly mean the world to both of us. So I'm gonna finish up things here. Thank you so much, I love you guys, I'll see you in the next one. Keep it real, peace.
I'm tired.
