This week Simon and Martina talk about doing a fan meet-and-greet and explain what the experience is like for them. It's exhausting, but they absolutely love it and appreciate their fans "so so so much." On the day, they have breakfast (just a green smoothie) at about 10am, then they get ready - thinking about clothes that won't show sweat marks, comfy shoes etc - then they head to the event. They have something to eat that won't make their breath smell bad and guests arrive. They are riddled with guilt the whole time because they want to give the same amount of time and attention to everyone who comes; time management is really hard with so many people. They refuse to leave until they've said hi to everyone. They barely eat, drink or go to the bathroom because they just want to embrace everyone who's turned up! It's one of those things that makes you tired to the bone but you love it and really enjoy it! Thanks to everyone they met, and to those who attended (and didn't) the duo hope you have a better understanding of what it's like to host these events.
