In terms of travel, we don't see in our metrics that more and more people are using Duolingo for travel. We did see a very temporary dip in the height of COVID a couple of years ago, like a fewer, slightly fewer. Since then, it's been about the same. And we just, you know, travel is interesting for a lot of people like us that are, you know, to be honest, from the worldwide perspective, pretty wealthy. I think travel is like a big motivation for using Duolingo, but for a lot of our users, you know, they're using it to learn English or as a hobby or something. So we don't see these things that's like, oh my God, travel has opened up and therefore Duolingo is exploding. We just haven't seen much of that. We do ask when people sign up why they're using Duolingo and some fraction tell us they're using it for travel. I don't know the number off the top of my head. I'm going to assume it's something like 15% tell us that they're using it for travel. But it's just not something that we look too much to.
