“Immersive experiences cost a fortune. Sprinkle sand on your living room floor, play seagull noises and call it a beach holiday.”
“Immersive experiences” are all the rage right now: sensory‑saturated events and VR spectacles that promise to transport you to another world. Always one to swim against the tide, The Sage suggests a more… thrifty approach.
Rather than shelling out for a pricey VR headset or 360° art installation, simply order a bag of play sand, pour it across your living room floor and blast seagull noises from your phone. Add a paddling pool for authenticity and practice charging yourself £8.50 for an ice cream.
This homemade beach holiday won’t win any travel awards (or any approval from your neighbours), but it will be unforgettable—and slightly anarchic. As The Sage reminds us: when life sells you an “immersive experience,” sprinkle the immersion yourself.
