- Hey everyone, I think this might be the first video
that you're seeing of me with this haircut.
So, hello. I cut my hair. Uh, I'm in San Francisco,
I'm in an Airbnb that's pretty cool looking
but seems to have really bad lighting.
It's like, fluorescent making my camera do crazy things.
I'm gonna have to work on that,
um if I come here is it better? Not really.
It is Thursday and I'm here in San Francisco
because on Saturday, myself and a few of my
ConvertKit teammates are gonna make the drive
down the Pacific Coast Highway, I think is what it's called.
From SF down to Oceanside for our next team retreat.
I figured I'd come a couple of days early
and see some like, you know, people that I know here in SF.
Visit some companies, so just landed, came to the Airbnb.
Had a shower, looking more presentable than I did
when I got off that 12 hour flight.
And now I'm gonna head to the Figma office.
(introduction music)
- [Everyone] Cheers! Haha.
- [Charli] Alright it is 6:04 pm. Spent the afternoon
at the Figma office which was great.
The people there were very kind,
we went out for bubble tea together which
you saw which was very fun.
Um, jet lag feels like it's about to crash down on me.
I'm going out for dinner with a few people
from Webflow tonight, at 6:15, it's just like,
you know around the corner, so.
I'm sure that once I get there I'll feel a bit
more awake, um and it is too early to go to sleep anyway.
So I wanna, not be on the wrong time zone.
So, it'll be good.
It's like stretching my back out on the floor.
When I sit on a plane for a long time, all my
like whole body feels like it gets compressed.
Just, yeah stretchin.. trying not to fall asleep.
Oh, and watching The Office because it's
on Netflix in the US and it's not in the UK.
(bouncy music)
Well, I managed to stay awake for dinner last night,
it was really good we went to this Peruvian place
so thank you to Van and the Webflow team for that.
So that was a win, didn't get a whole lot of sleep
last night cause of jet lag, but I do need to
check out of this Airbnb in about half-an-hour.
So I just wanted to give you a quick little,
like apartment tour I guess before I go.
Cause this is actually one of the nicer Airbnb's
I've stayed in, in San Francisco.
So we've got this little kitchen area here,
with living room, sofa's and stuff out there.
Little table I've been working at this morning.
There's this little, outdoor area too which is pretty cute.
Um, if I come in here, here is the bedroom
and I did not make my bed. All the floors have like,
underfloor heating, um, so when I had,
like just my socks on you could feel it through the floor
which was super nice. Nice bedroom,
and here is the bathroom with, yeah, nice shower.
It all looks like it's been very recently done up.
I feel... I feel like I would wanna stay here again
if I came to San Francisco, it's quite a good place.
And in a good area as well, um just went to this cute
little bagel place to get something for breakfast.
It's so funny in America they call it an egg
and cheese sandwich even though it's like, egg
and cheese within a bagel. I gotta pack up all my stuff
that as you just saw is lying all over the place.
Um within the next half hour, and head out to the
Webflow office for the day, I'm going to be filming
some videos there and just like,
yeah working from there for the day.
(guitar music)
- [Charli] Okay, so I am in the Webflow studio.
Look at this cool set behind me,
and then they have like, a arm chair over there
that you can record on as well,
and I'm at this table, with these acoustic panels
behind me for my shot. Pretty cool they have this space.
I would love to set something up like this,
but a London apartment doesn't allow it.
Anyway, I just filmed a video with Ryan.
He's the brand designer here, so it's really cool
to talk to someone else who does what I do, pretty much.
Um, yeah now I'm gonna go record a video for the
Webflow Youtube channel.
But I think these lights are having some issues,
so I think I need to go get that sorted out first.
(lively music)
- [Male] What's your uh... what's your poison?
- [Charli] Whiskey
- [Male] Just your gift, perfect. Japanese whiskey.
- [Charli] So, Webflow's confrence rooms,
well meeting rooms are super cool,
cause look what they have in them.
So we're having a little whiskey o'clock aren't we?
Cheers. What are we gonna talk about?
- [Male] I was gonna ask you a few, probably dumb,
questions about your personal site and how you use Webflow.
- [Charli] Perfect, let's do it.
- [Male] Great.
- [Charli] Spent the day at Webflow
and now look who I'm with! You know this girl.
- [Alexis] Hello darling!
- [Charli] I don't know if you know these people.
Not gonna say anything?
- [Marc] Hello!
- [Charli] We are off to get drinks with Jarvis,
um yeah he's having some drinks at a bar up here on Mission.
And then I guess we're gonna head to our Airbnb, right?
- [Alexis] Cause we're road tripping down the
Pacific Coast Highway all day tomorrow.
- [Charli] I might include that
in the vlog as well actually.
- [Alexis] It's gonna be a long day,
we need to get some sleep.
- [Charli] Yeah, I'll include that too, cool.
(upbeat music)
- [Charli] Okay, Marc where are we going?
- [Marc] We're going on the best road trip,
along the coast, it's sunny California.

- [Charli] So last night we stayed in Oxnard.
Which is, I don't know this little beach town thing.
We didn't see much of it did we?
- [Alexis] No we didn't but we had a great time.
- [Charli] Now, we're in Malibu, and we're going to...
- [Alexis] Where's Miley Cyrus? (laughing)
- [Charli] We went to a really boujee brunch place,
it's gonna be great.
- [Alexis] Malibu Farm.
- [Charli] Yeah, okay Malibu Farm. Yeah show you there.
(upbeat music)
- [Charli] Is it good PO?
- [PO] Just amazing.
- [Charli] So this is the Malibu pier.
I'm guessing that's what it's called. Some cute lights.
We just took some photos, and PO has found a swing.
PO tell us who we just, who we think we might've
had brunch with.
- [PO] Um, 007...James Bond.
- [Charli] Pierce Brosnan.
- [PO] Yeah, yeah exactly.
- [Charli] Yeah, he reckons he was sitting across from us
I didn't even notice.
- [PO] Well I think so, I'm not that good with like..
- [Charli] What else are you gonna call it?
Yeah, we had brunch with Pierce Brosnan.
- [PO] Yeah yeah yeah we did, yeah.
(ambiance music)
- [Charli] Miguel is confirming.
- [Miguel] Uh, yeah I'm a little starstruck right now.
So, uh, the other man from the family and Mrs. Doubtfire
was there, you might know him as 007
but that doesn't speak to me quite like...
- [Charli] Mrs. Doubtfire.
- [Miguel] Mrs. Doubtfire.
- [Charli] He pretended to leave something at the table
and went back and checked.
- [Miguel] I have a picture of the back of his head.
I'm so excited.
(laughing)
(calming music)
- [Alexis] We have a 30 minute long coffee order.
Cause everyone's so complicated, it's fine.
- [Charli] Alright I think I'm actually gonna end
this vlog here, because it's kind of the end of our
road trip. We are just a little bit out of
Oceanside right now which is where we're going
for the team retreat. So thanks for watching this vlog
which was a whole mix of things.
We had remote working, road trippin, all the stuff
all the sites. Give it a thumbs up if you enjoyed it
and I'll see you in the next one. Bye.
Oh by the way, if you want to see the vlog from
our team retreat, that goes up on the ConvertKit
Youtube channel, so I'll leave a link to that down below
and um eventually when it gets uploaded.
It usually takes me a while to get around to it
but um yeah, I'll link it there for you to go
and watch our team retreat. Bye
