I set some goals for 2022 with one of my best friends in Sweden. To make sure we stay on track, we have quarterly goals, and we have a meeting at the end of each month. We’ve been pretty good at sticking with our goals in January. It’s great to have someone to be accountable to. I’ll share a few of my goals. At least 5 min Spanish on Duolingo 5x a week, and practicing a handstand against a wall twice a week. I’m chicken shit scared to kick up against the wall and I know it’s all in my head! Annoying!
Did a mini hotel stay last week too. Tried out the hotel Condesa DF. I liked the hotel it a lot. A bit expensive, but super nice people working there. Pretty good sushi on the rooftop restaurant/bar and my Mezcal Margarita was excellent. Breakfast was included and they had a good variety. Very good location in Condesa if you need a place to stay in CDMX 🙂
Also visited a factory for clothing manufacturing. Planning on some t-shirts and comfy wear 🙂 Hopefully have some samples ready in 1-2 weeks. It is a family owned factory and everything there is produced in Mexico.
I also received samples on some embroidery work I’m having done here. It’s all done by hand by 40 women here in Mexico. Very cool and can’t wait for it to be ready. Just had to redesign them a bit, but their work is of excellent quality.
It was also Tamale Day here in Mexico last week. Yummy! There’s a small taco place around the corner from where we live and they invited us for some tamales. The pink one is a dessert tamale. Looks like a ________ hahahaaaa… Oh, and the pink drink was some specialty too. I just didn’t really understand what it was. Tasted like a warm bubblegum milkshake 🙂
Met so many cute dogs and the cutest cat too. Look at his round face. The girl was walking him in a harness and he was so chill! The puppy is a guy’s from the gym, adorable!!! I waaaaaant…
A couple of ‘work’ pics and a couple from a walk in the park 🙂 Areola and nipple edited off for IG hahaaa… Who ever got offended by a nipple?
Nothing special planned for this week other than work and working out 🙂 And remember –
Here are some pics from the trip to San Francisco. First day it was so foggy you could barely see the top of the tall buildings.
Outside the Mexican Consulate. I think this was the 2nd day when the visa was approved because I look so happy 🙂
One of my favorite things in SF is all the amazing coffee places! Before I left I marked all the shops I wanted to get coffee from on Google Maps. One of my favorites in flavor and location – Andytown Coffee Roasters. They have this rooftop park with a walkway outside that was awesome!
My absolute favorite is Wrecking Ball Coffee Roasters. WOW! So good and brought a couple of bags of coffee beans back with me to Mexico.
Other great coffee spots I visited were Home Coffee Roasters, Radiator Coffee Salon, and Red Rock Coffee Company in Mountain View. I used to live in Mountain View and stayed with a friend there on this visit, so it was great to go back to Red Rock every morning 🙂
There was this great specialty market that had pretty much all of my favorite coffee roasters. I love Verve, Chromatic, Ritual, Equator and Four Barrel. Had to buy a couple of more bags from there too 🙂 I was pretty over-caffeinated by the end of my trip hahahaaaa…
It was so much fun walking around in San Francisco again. I love the colorful Haight – Ashbury area.
I love lobster rolls and ate that twice. One of my favorite foods!
Great to see Patricia again and catch up with her. Patricia is the human.
More random pics from SF. Oh, and I love my Russian style hat that I wore everywhere. SF was sunny but cold!
It felt good to return to Mexico. Needed to get my butt back into gym and it feels so good!
Content has been produced and hopefully made people happy 🙂
Worked on Pussitive…
I have a busy and fun week ahead. A little overnight getaway on Wednesday, crossfitting, shooting and got some clothing samples to hopefully approve for production 🙂 Oh, and a visit to an orthopedic too because one foot has been hurting for a while and not getting better.
Right now I’m sitting at the airport in Guadalajara waiting to connect to Mexico City. The tickets were very expensive when booking them last minute, so had to get one flight with a layover now. One thing that’s always a great experience here in Mexico are the airport lounges. This one is huge and super nice. I love to have a coffee whatever time of day, and at this lounge they even have a Rancilio bean grinder (coffee lovers will know). In Mexico City, before flying to SF, the lounge had a nail salon, cooked meals you could order for free, and even offered shoe polishes.
Very happy I’m almost done with the residency Visa. Took 2 visits to the consulate in San Francisco and on Friday it was finally halfway done. Just have to exchange it to a permanent Visa now in Mexico.
Pics from SF coming soon. Will share a couple though with my favorite Mexican. So great to see Patricia again. We met at a Crossfit gym and it’s been about 4 years since I last saw her. Or since she saw my cleavage hahahaaa…
OK, it’s Monday now. I didn’t manage to finish the blog last night before taking off. I was too busy picking up and eating Oreo cookies and then I got super tired. So happy to be back in Mexico. Just feels like home now 🙂 Got straight into work this morning. Painted my tired face and then shot a bunch of stuff. Ate anything but healthy in SF so it felt good to hit the gym today! My bloated belly bounced pretty good on the floor doing burpees hahaaaa…
And finally some pics from LA. Sandy’s kids are always very creative and surprised me with this tent on my arrival. -“This is your bed” they said proudly! Awesome!
Everyone was having Covid or was having a fear of it and didn’t want to shoot. Instead me and my favorite (I’m writing that in case he reads this lol) photographer Nick hit our secret outdoor location and got creative. Great content and a great day!
Also shot at a location.
Then we took the kids and drove to Big Bear. Can’t believe I lived in LA for years and never went! I loved it and I’m pretty sure I’ll go back there for some hiking some day.
One of my biggest fears is bears! Imagine hiking and all of a sudden a bear would appear. I read and watch so many videos on how to act if you encounter one. I would most likely do just the opposite of what they all say – take off running with a squirt of ‘Nutella’ in my pants! So I saw this building covered in bear paintings and this is the only way I want to experience bears!
That was about it from LA. As always it was great to hang with Sandy and her family. A couple of more random pics before I flew back to Mexico. I always look for new coffee places and found a great one – Ideology Coffee. So good!
Love Snoopy! Relaxes 90% of the time 🙂
2 different selfies, 2 different styles 😉
Oh, almost forgot these 2 videos. One of the reasons Nick is my favorite photographer. He got the same humor as me 🙂
I’m only 2 weeks late wishing you that. Better late than never as they say right? How were your Holiday’s? Already broken some New Year’s Resolutions? Or did you bust into 2022 guns blazing?
Things here got busy during the Holidays. First of all I cooked my a*s off on Xmas-Eve. Rolled and cooked about 150 meatballs. But everyone loved the meatball sandwiches with the beet salad! And the Colombian empanadas were super tasty, so it was all a success 🙂 I haven’t had a meatball sandwich since Xmas, and I’d lick a toilet seat to get one right now!
The rest of Xmas flew by, and I have to say the Swedish traditions are a bit better. People were ordering pizza to eat on Xmas Day, and I felt I was mostly cleaning up after others. I love having people over and around me, but when they don’t clean up after themselves, I lose it a bit. Well, you live and learn 🙂
I did like visiting the Historic District during the Holidays. They know the meaning of bigger is better over here!
Need inspiration for your next nail design? They have a tent with like 80-100 people doing manicures in there!!! Take your pick…
On New Years we were supposed to go to a party. Everyone going had to get a Covid test. Well, turns out the host himself got his test back on NYE and was positive. Ooops, change of plans. Instead we had some people over at our place. Some food and drinks before 2022 wohoooo! It went so fast and I didn’t even snap one pic. But I shot these that I was supposed to post before NYE hahahaaaa….
Then I took off to LA and was hoping to get an interview date at any consulate in the US for a residency visa here in Mexico. Things are not always as easy I think they are. A lot of consulates have a huge backlog or don’t even have available dates for interviews. Finally I got lucky and now have a date next week in San Francisco. Flew back to Mexico because pretty much everyone in LA was getting Covid or locking themselves inside. Hard to get any shoots done. At least I got to hang with my bestie Sandy and her family. We did a day trip to Big Bear and that was awesome! Pics coming 🙂
Working hard before taking off to SF next week. Lived there for a year before Puerto Rico, so it’s going to be great to go back 🙂 Already planned a dinner with my friend Patricia there, and she just sent me a message that she popped her hip and ended up in ER yesterday. I love that she has the same humor as me! Nurse Puma is coming!
A couple of more left-over pics from 2021. Seeing the meatball sandwich pictures made me hungry and I need to go find some tacos now!
Christmas Eve is finally here! It feels a bit weird celebrating Xmas and the sun is shining here in Mexico. In Sweden, where I usually spend my holiday’s, it’s pitch black outside by 3pm, cold and maybe some snow on the ground. How and where are you spending your holiday’s?
I’m cooking some beets now. Going to make a Swedish ‘rödbetssallad’ which is a beet salad that goes with the meatballs I’m going to make in a bit 🙂 Got my Spanish teacher Eliana coming over from Colombia today too and she’s going to make some Colombian specialties too. Tomorrow it will be more of a gringo celebration. I do think 24th of Dec is the proper day to celebrate! I mean, c’mon, I should know since Santa is from Korvatunturi in Finland and all 🙂
Here’s my Xmas pics and I wish you all the best for the Holiday’s!!!
Hola! It’s been a while. I spent the last week after getting back from LA sick as a turd! People were sick in LA and I guess it hit me when I got home. First 2 days it was flu symptoms, and then I ate a pizza and added food poisoning to the combo. I spent the night in the bathroom and in the morning I called a doctor over. Mexico is like the equivalent of the movie character MacGyver. You know, the guy who makes a bomb out of a Qtip and a flashlight. Everything is always fixable here. Dr. prescribed some antibiotics and another guy came biking with the meds from a pharmacy 20min later. I’m finally getting and feeling better!!!
But before this week of being sick and going to LA, we celebrated Thanksgiving with some other gringos here in CDMX. Very nice evening, gringos and food! And I love this doggie! I already offered like 5 times to dog sit him 🙂
Day after Thanksgiving I flew to LA to meet up with my sister. Saw this flight crew at LAX and only their eyes were visible behind shields! Yes, I had to run in front of them and check because I was so curious. Do they fly in this too? Or is it only when getting off the plane they put this on?
Had the best time in LA with my sister. We like the same stuff and were busy from morning to night. We stayed at Roosvelt Hotel and one of the nights there was the Hollywood Christmas Parade right outside. The manager of the hotel took us to the roof top and we got an amazing view from there.
We also pre celebrated my sisters birthday with a night out. Dinner and drinks first and then hit a club.
The Grove is one of my fav spots in LA. Used to go there a lot when I lived in LA. Love their Xmas decorations, and the Godiva chocolate cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory is the best!
My sister then flew back to Sweden and I went straight to get my hair done with the best hair dresser in LA, Joan at Style Box! She is amazing and super particular. She takes her time and I’m always so happy with the results. Trying to tame down the blondness a bit now and trying for a tiiiiny bit more natural look now. Baby steps!
Then I spent a couple more days with Sandy and her family. Which feels like and which I consider my family as well 🙂 No stay is complete without some work being done… In my case being a sleaze-ball 😉
Good views and nice car on set…
I also try to be helpful around the house when I’m there. Like help with spelling homework. They were supposed to try spell different animals. Well, Puma is an animal, right?
The last day before flying back, there was a crazy fog in LA. Very eerie… Compare it to my selfie in the morning sun just a day before.
At some point before getting sick I also managed some work at home. Love this Pussitive jacket I shot on Ximena and this jumpsuit on Masha 🙂
You think I missed myself? Naaah, love being infront of the camera too much 😉
Before I’m off to start this week, I’m just gonna throw some movie/series recommendations for you. Watched a few while being sick 🙂 These are all great and highly recommend them!
Also finished this book “The Elephant Tree” by RD Ronald. It wasn’t a page turner, just pretty good.
OK, need to pull myself together now and put that Xmas tree up! I want some holiday feeling at home now!
I hope you are not sick and out thriving and being fantastic!
Masha from Russia, but living in Puerto Rico, made it to Mexico one week ago. With some friends, it feels like you’ve never been apart. I let Masha catch her breath for one day before we headed out for the volcano hike. We were picked up at 7am and headed to the Nevado National Park where the volcano is located. By the description of the hike, it sounded like a regular hike, maybe just a bit harder because of the altitude. No problema we thought…
Well, after making it about half way, the guide told us the real climb starts now. We were all pretty out of breath, but little did we know what was coming! Helmets on and up we went. The weather changed and it got really chilly and foggy. We where pretty much rock climbing without any kind of safety harnesses. It was a vertical climb at times, and there were patches of snow and ice. We climbed about 15 steps and then bent over breathing and trying to catch our breath. Knowing that if we stepped wrong, lost our grip and fell, we most likely would injure ourself very badly. We climbed to the top in the last pic!
When we made it to the top – WOW. Beautiful views and amazing feeling of accomplishment!
Then walking along the rim…
Marked the top, and look at the path we took down! Basically just loose sand and rocks coming down.
But we made it and it felt pretty good to be back down again! Next time I want to try to walk the whole ridge around the crater of the volcano.
This dog lives up in the mountains and followed us along the whole hike. Probably because we all kept feeding him 🙂 So cute!
Wined & dined some with Masha. The restaurant in the first pic is called Páramo. Their tacos and cocktails are amazing! First time there and will definitely go back like 50 times, so good!
Then we tried a Temazcal (sweat lodge). Very nice experience and it’s said to “illuminate a pathway into your inner self and begin a rebirth of love in your soul”. It was hosted in this beautiful ecological kind of garden/property.
After picking flowers and plants that attracted us, we listened to the Shaman and drank tea. Then we all entered the sweat lodge and sat in a circle. Hot coals where brought in and the entrance sealed off with a blanket. The Shaman talked and sang and it was translated to us. It got very hot and it was pitch black. We sat in there for about an hour and you felt very refreshed coming out. Some people had seen animals and the Shaman explained the meanings of different animals. I would do this again!
Squeezed in some more food, massages and Mexico City before Masha left yesterday morning…
Still had time to throw in some work between meals and adventure!
It’s always sad when friends and family leave 🙁 My cure was to book a trip to LA next week and going to see my sister there and hang with wifey for a bit. Just a short trip and might be the last one abroad for this year. I do plan to squeeze in a mini-vacay somewhere in Mexico too before 2021 is done 🙂
And as a reminder, bigger is usually better! Just look at this giant cactus hahahaaaa…
So much has happened and I haven’t had the time to check in here. Now I have a big cup of coffee and a few hours before Masha from Russia arrives here in Mexico, so here we go 🙂
I wrote this yesterday, but then I thought it was a great idea to micro-dose. The thing was that it actually didn’t hit me like a micro-dose, but I had to lie down and enjoy the ride for a couple of hours LOL. And then Masha was here, and never had time to add the photos and post this yesterday. Now Monday and let’s try this again!
I only knew Día de Muertos – Day of the Dead was a big holiday here. I was recommended the Pixar movie ‘Coco’, that shows what the holiday is about. Super good movie and I learned about the ‘ofrenda’. In short it is an altar, big or small, where pictures of the deceased are placed so they can find their way to you on the Day of the Dead. You also place their favorite foods, treats, drinks etc to make them feel welcome. Also you place the bright orange marigold flowers that is the flower of the dead. Families make them at their homes and there are public ones too. I thought it was such a nice idea, so I created a simple one at home. I included Mom & Dad, our rottweilers, and Molle, a horse I took care of when I was younger. I placed candy, flowers, and a candle there too 🙂 This is a couple of days later and now I need magnets so I can put these photos on the refrigerator 🙂
And my Halloween costumes.
Some pics from the city when walking around during Día de Muertos. Very beautiful and a lot of people out! Even the ladies at the check out at the supermarket were dressed up 🙂
My friend Linda arrived the day after. So great to have friends and family over. And yes, she brought candy from Sweden too 🙂 We had a very busy and active week where we checked out the city, downtown, worked out, wine & dined, and an excursion to one of my favorite places here – Boxque Teva. Wrote about it before. Like a hobbit town for adults.
Well, before we got going we decided to eat brunch. It was me, Linda and Andrew. I usually carry a small bag around my waist. Decided to place it on top of my backpack that I placed about 1meter from our table leaning against the wall. Long story short, one older guy in a suit pretends to drop his wallet, keys, and coins right by my feet. When we look, the other guy grabs my purse and takes off. We realized a bit too late what had happened. Police came quickly and people were helpful in helping to translate what had happened. Luckily Andrew had my phone and I had my computer with me in my backpack. I blocked all cards right away and luckily my bank had stopped their attempts to retrieve money and make payments. That within 5 minutes of getting ahold of my wallet.
When we finally settled everything we ordered an Uber to Boxque Teva about 45min on the outskirts Mexico City. Linda pointed out that the Uber was running out of gas. The gas light was blinking. The driver didn’t seem concerned though so we relaxed. When we were in the woods, the car suddenly dies. Luckily it was only10 minutes walking, uphill though, but we made it 🙂 Fingers crossed the Uber driver made it too 🙂
The next morning we walked along the main road there. Such cool houses and surroundings.
We came to a park entrance and met these 2 ladies in a house there. They told us they were park security. They invited us inside and offered us some food. They where so nice and I gave them mine and Linda’s Pussitive hats. Explained to them it is my ‘tetas’ on the picture on the hat and they seemed to appreciate to wear my titties on their head hahahaaaa…
Some more pics from Linda’s visit…
Made Linda model some Pussitive gear too before I let her fly back to Sweden.
Last week was all about catching up on work. More Pussitive stuff. I love this jumpsuit with the text TRIPPY 🙂
Shot a bunch for Onlyfans…
Catching up in the gym. I really like pushing and dragging the sledge. Imagine my legs and booty growing while I’m at it!
On Friday there was a small get together and we where invited by a couple at the gym. First time at this place Jardin Paraiso. Super cool place and it got packed.
I consider myself a great partier, but these Mexicans we were with, took it to another level. Hard to keep up, but they were all great fun. We were the first one to leave, and I felt like an amateur. If I’d stayed longer, I’m pretty sure I would’ve spent all day yesterday in fetal position LOL… I was able to cure my hungover with 1 Ibuprofen and a hamburger yesterday 🙂
Here’s som cats & dogs for you too. So many cute ones here. My favorite is this guy with this kitty in his backpack. Threw in a squirrel in there too that was cute 🙂
And yesterday I finished the book ‘Dune’. I loved it! Lmk if you have other great sci-fi reads to recommend!
Masha just texted that she’s boarding in Florida. Going to be so much fun having here here. We got a volcano hike and sweat lodge trips planned for next week 🙂
How are you doing? Remember, don’t try to blend in – stand out!
As I wrote before, we visited the town Valle de Bravo and loved it. It’s only about a 2 hour drive from Mexico City, and we took an Uber there.
We stayed at La Casa Rodavento, a small boutique hotel right next to the town. It was only two minutes walking to all the shopping and restaurants. No kids allowed there which for me is a bonus. Don’t worry if you have kids, since there’s also Hotel Rodavento. It’s located about 25 min away from town, it’s beautiful, and they allow kids. It’s more secluded in the woods and the spa is also located there. Last option is Cinco Rodavento in the middle of the city.
Had a great room on the bottom floor. There are 2 floors. We appreciated the welcome shots 🙂
Huge bathroom with a big shower, an outdoor shower, and bathtub. Nice products too and mirrors for selfies 😉
The first day was cloudy and rainy, so just took a short stroll in town.
We ate at our hotel and the food is good. Not a huge menu but the little desserts churros are to die for!!!!
Next day we had a beautiful sunny day. Pictures from the pool at the hotel and the view from the second-floor rooftop. The rooftop has a hottub by the way, but never had the time to use it, and I even missed taking a picture of it.
The town is so cute and amazing. I love the small alleys everywhere.
Great shopping, cute cafes and restaurants. Me being a caffeine addict, i tried two places for coffee and both where great. This one was called La Machinhuepa Valle. Cute place and made friends with this dog that followed us into the cafe.
The best one was Caos Cafe. Beans roasted right there and I made another cute friend 🙂 Look at his different colored eyes, so cool!
Explored an art gallery, did some shopping, and peaked inside of a church. Could’ve spent more time in town, but we had massages booked so had to go…
As I wrote on top, the spa is located at their other place called Hotel Rodavento. Very glad we got to see that place too because it’s different and very relaxing in the woods. It was pouring down when we where there, and it felt like we where in the jungle!
I had booked a 2h package with massage and a facial treatment. Unfortunately my masseuse was either not very well trained or just not into massaging people. I was pretty disappointed after. When we then asked to go to the outdoor pool and hottub we were told they close at 6pm and it was now 5.40pm. We were also informed that it was not included in the massage package to use the pool or hottub. I’ve never been to a spa where pool, tubs or saunas are not included. I wish they would’ve informed me of these details when making a reservation. We still checked out the area and I can imagine it be pretty relaxing to sit out there. If you paid for it that is 😉
After talking to the manager about my massage, he offered me a 15% discount. I told him that I’m not very pleased with that. He made a call and 30% was taken off the total bill. That was satisfactory as my partner’s massage was good.
Instead of ‘hanging lip’ over the spa experience we decided to try their restaurant. This hotel has such beautiful walk-ways and a very nice view from the restaurant.
Food was very good and stuffed my face with the mini churros they had at this place too 🙂 Next time in Valle de Bravo I would like to stay at this place too.
Next morning we had breakfast and then spent some time trying to get a ride back to Mexico City. Uber doesn’t run out there so after some phone calls we found a local driver to take us back. Next time I would probably handle this before, but hey, in Mexico everything always works out one way or another 🙂 I really really recommend a visit to Valle de Bravo! I would go back right away if I didn’t have so many other spots on my to-visit list here in Mexico!
Hope you are having or had a great Halloween. I’ll share some of mine in next post. Day of the Dead or Día de los Muertos is a big holiday here. One of my best friends from Sweden arrives here tomorrow. Going to be so much fun and can’t wait to show her CDMX! And eat the Swedish candy she hopefully brings me hahahaaa 🙂
It was 10 busy days in LA! I have tried to catch up on sleep this weekend after coming back to Mexico on Friday night. There was a birthday brunch here on Saturday that required some recovery as well hahahaaa…
It was so great to see my best friend Sandy and her family again. I always stay with them when in LA and I feel like I’m part of her family 🙂 So much catching up to do and kids were ready with Barbies within 10 minutes of my arrival. I have my own Barbie there, named Barbara, and somehow the kids always remember that and I always have to play with Barbara.
There was a lot of shooting while in town. So spoiled that Sandy is the best make-up artist and fixed my face up every time 🙂 Here are just a few samples.
The hot brunette is Silvia Saige – yummy! And she has two super sweet cats too that I was running after almost as much as Silvia LOL…
I also shot a whole day with one of my all-time favorites Courtney Taylor! She’s just so damn hot and also so much fun. We were laughing so hard and the day flew by too fast! The photographer has all the pics so I’ll show them later.
Also flew out a day to shoot in Phoenix. The photographer makes you look your best. Even though he pays, he always shares some pics with the model that she can use. Not always the case with photographers. Here are a couple 🙂
And a couple of my selfies from that day… Not quite the same quality and elegance!
I think we maybe had 2 days that were a bit more chill. I threw on the bikini and tanned it up a bit.
Also did a round of shopping for some Pussitive stuff in Downtown. Afterwards met up with Jose who I became friends with in Puerto Rico. Found out through IG he was visiting LA at the same time as me. So good seeing him!
As always Sandy and I did one night out. It was her husband’s birthday and we celebrated pretty hard at Paris Tokyo in Beverly Hills. I only have this one pic of us before it got out of control hahahaaa… I can just say that the next day I woke up with half the birthday cake in my bra, hair, and clothes! But we had fun, all that matters!
And all too fast the ten days were gone! Hopefully I go back very soon 🙂
By the way, watched ‘Dune’ this weekend and reading the book. Wow, can recommend both! Have you read the book or seen the movie?
OK, time to hit the gym and get this week started off strong!
