# Year-end Webikon retreat

> We met up again for a Webikon retreat, this time in the village of Polomka. Workshops, discussions and goulash.

### A proper start

Since we all work from home, spending time **together** matters to us. So we met up again for a Webikon retreat, this time wandering off to **the village of Polomka**.

We started as always, with **lunch together**, and then moved on to the cabin. We stayed at **Chata Alex**, which could have been made for our team-building.

We kicked off the team-building with excellent coffee made by Palino and Martin, our resident **speciality coffee lovers**. Alongside it came a marketing **presentation and discussion** full of ideas and improvements. Then came the evening of **free time and fun** we'd been looking forward to.

### A new day dawns

Day two brought a difficult wake-up (as it tends to), but we still got into **work mode** and opened more **interesting discussions**, for example:

- Comparing the Elementor and Oxygen page builders
- Building custom Gutenberg blocks and comparing different approaches
- Several discussions on all sorts of technical and non-technical topics.

During the day we also made **goulash**, cooked by **head chef** Marek, with the rest of us as model assistants. In the evening the fun got going again, and it was brilliant. The board game Activity gave us a bit of a hard time, but we didn't give up and fought our way through to the end.

And as tends to happen at great events like this, **departure day** arrived. We spent the morning relaxing and chatting over breakfast. Then we went for a **tasty lunch** at [Green Pub](https://www.facebook.com/green.pub.brezno/) in Brezno, which we can only recommend.
