Interesting Fact

I have cumulatively spent a few months as a volunteer builder helping to construct a castle in France using just the tools and technology of the 13th century. It's the kind of work that makes you really appreciate physical labor & good food. https://www.guedelon.fr/en/introduction_75.html
