Interesting experiement, I think more of us could do with being a little more monk.

I'd really love to go on a 10 day silent retreat. Im not ready to be able to leave my kids for that at the moment as my circumstances don't allow for it, but they are getting older and I will do it one day.

Silence and a realy opportunity to go within. But I love this mondel for monk like and it's actually really doable.
