Hi Daniel,

For this task you have to return an array of hobbies using the reduce method, it can be done like this

const customers = [
  {
    name: "Tyrone",
    personal: {
      age: 33,
      hobbies: ["Bicycling", "Camping"]
    }
  },
  {
    name: "Elizabeth",
    personal: {
      age: 25,
      hobbies: ["Guitar", "Reading", "Gardening"]
    }
  },
  {
    name: "Penny",
    personal: {
      age: 36,
      hobbies: ["Comics", "Chess", "Legos"]
    }
  }
];
let hobbies;

// We use the reduce method in our array of objects
hobbies = customers.reduce((array, customer) => {
    // We assign the new array value with customer.personal.hobbies added to it using concat
    array = array.concat(customer.personal.hobbies);

    return array;
}, []);
