[00:01.69]As for the men... what did  they get up to?

[00:04.61]As a man I was part of the hunting party,

[00:07.12]which I'm afraid to say wasn't

[00:08.49]all that successful.

[00:10.43]We spent a lot of time nearly catching 1 things.

[00:13.02]usually our catch would consist of a hare

[00:15.45]or a bullfrog or two...

[00:17.45]And what does that taste like?

[00:19.85]It tastes like nothing on earth actually...

[00:22.15]like nothing else on earth.

[00:24.55]...and that's just one of the eco-tourism

[00:26.97]options now on offer.

[00:28.95]Among the other eco-holidays,

[00:31.06]you can have a taste of the gaucho 2 lifestyle,

[00:33.60]staying and working on a cattle ranch 3

[00:35.48]on the borders of Chile and Argentina,

[00:37.78]join archeologists in the North African desert,

[00:40.82]or live the life of a religious hermit 4

[00:43.70]on an uninhabited island

[00:44.99]off the west coast of Ireland.

[00:47.85]But if roughing it isn't quite to your taste,

[00:50.39]perhaps you'd like to use your holiday

[00:52.63]to learn a local craft or skill?

[00:55.34]And these days it seems you can learn

[00:57.35]almost anything,

[00:59.06]from Italian cookery in Tuscany,

[01:01.38]to riding Lusitano horses in Northern Portugal.

[01:04.90]We caught up with journalist Isabelle Fahey,

[01:07.91]who had just spent two weeks

[01:09.63]on a yoga retreat in Ulpotha,

[01:11.84]in the Sri Lankan jungle.

[01:13.89]Isablle, describe the experience to us.

[01:15.68]
