One of the…

…best things about Puerto Rico is all of the beaches. So hot during the day, so I prefer to go around 6pm when the sun is setting.

On Sunday, I felt I wanted to go swim and read by the lagoon again. I did start to swim and 2 minutes later the sky opened up and gave me a free shower. I tried to hide under a tree with a towel over me, but I was drenched in like 3 minutes hahahaaa… Ran and took cover in a tunnel with the rest from the beach. But hey, the rain stopped and perfect opportunity for bikini pics 🙂

Sometimes I fake going to the beach too. Like in this photoset. Fake it till you make it 😉

More content from this week… Have to work between my beach sets.

Got some touched up pics that I shot in Vegas. Damn! Wish I looked this flawless without touch ups hahhaaaa…

Long time no see Caramelo! He came over and went through my suitcase. Nothing in there impressed him.

Then his human mom came over and we tried to communicate in Spanglish. As I understood it, Caramelo caught this little bird and they were now nursing it. I saw it couple of days ago again and the birdie seems in good spirits 🙂

Finished ‘Defending Jacob’ by William Landay. Soooooo gooood! A legal thriller and very exiting. Also makes you think about what you’d do yourself if your kid was accused of murder AND you maybe not 100% sure he’s innocent. I can really recommend this book!

And if you want an other great book – try mine 🙂 I have a couple of copies at home that I’m selling before I move. You can have it signed and with a personal message if you want. Just write a comment if you want one 🙂

Forgot to publish this yesterday so I’ll add one more thing I found out last night. I went for a walk and up on the street I chatted with the cat-lady. I think I told you about her before. She has like 20 cats and she’s my source of information when it comes to happenings here. Last night she told me that a black SUV stopped outside the entrance of my building. Two men got out and picked up a parked vespa and put it in the back of the SUV and drove away. Luckily there’s cameras on this street and the perpetrators are now shown all over Twitter so I guess they’ll be caught 🙂

Drinking a big cup of coffee and then getting this day going 🙂 Have a great week you all!

Back in Puerto Rico…

….and it’s sweaty to say the least! It’s enough to go get groceries, 10 min away, and I get back and go straight to the shower! I don’t have hot water, (not enough pressure to reach the top floor),but now it doesn’t matter, it’s perfect to cool down fast!

I got 3 weeks here before I go back to Mexico. Gonna stay there long term is my plan. Going to let go of this apartment and I’m already overwhelmed with all the stuff I need to get rid off. My plan is to pack 2 suitcases. Might have to ship a box or 2 too 🙂 This will be the 3rd time I ‘pack up’ my home and kind of start over. In a way it feels like a cleanse to get rid of stuff. But inside me lives a little hoarder too, that wants to keep everything!

Haven’t unpacked my suitcase yet, so boring and tiresome to unpack! I usually just keep grabbing stuff out of the suitcase after a trip and after a couple of weeks is almost empty hahhaaaa…

Today my friend Jose and his friend David picked me up for brunch – yummy! Both the brunch and the boys hahhaaaa!

Yesterday was spent shooting some custom videos… Only ‘safe’ pick I had time to snap 🙂

A couple of pics when shooting in Utah…

And this is me saying adios to Utah. I liked the airport! Can’t miss a cool spot without taking a picture, or more like 20 so I have a few to choose from. It’s not always great to hang with me, cause I see a lot of photo ops everywhere and they need to be captured!

Also finished my first book on my Kindle – ‘Brave New World’ by Aldous Huxley. I loved it. It was published in 1932 and I don’t think what he wrote back then is so off from today.

From Amazion – “Aldous Huxley’s profoundly important classic of world literature, Brave New World is a searching vision of an unequal, technologically-advanced future where humans are genetically bred, socially indoctrinated, and pharmaceutically anesthetized to passively uphold an authoritarian ruling order–all at the cost of our freedom, full humanity, and perhaps also our souls.”

I do believe we are headed to even more technologically-advanced future and I wouldn’t be surprised if someone said there are places where humans are genetically bred. That’s just me 🙂

Also when leaving Vegas Sophie gave me this book – ‘Overcome’ by Amber Van De Bunt. She might be more known under her performer name Karmen Karma. It’s a memoir of abuse, addiction, sex work, and recovery. Wow, what crazy stories and I’m impressed she gotten through it all! All the best to her! I read it in 4 days and can recommend it.

Time to take an other shower to cool off. Somehow my friend Masha convinced me to sign up to work out in the park at 06.30 am tomorrow morning. Seemed like a great idea at the time. Now, not so much! Probably only time you can work out outdoors here without a heatstroke though!

Viva Las Vegas!

Just back in Utah from Vegas. So much fun seeing and hanging with my friend Sophie Dee. She picked me up from the airport last week on Thursday. It was pretty much a packed schedule from that point. Since Sophie is a pro, she already had booked a make-up artist to come over and paint our faces before the evening activities.

Before & After. I wish someone could fix my face & hair every morning before I take on the day!

No one told me all the plans and I only packed a carry on. Luckily there was more than enough to choose from in Sophie’s closet. Picked this little number and off we went.

We had dinner at Wally’s Wine & Spirit’s at the new hotel Resort World. Then hit the club AYU. Even though we were outdoors it was so hot! I was very excited to be out and about again so I missed taking any pictures.

Best part of staying at Sophie’s house (besides Sophie) is her 6 cats and 2 dogs. Every morning 1 or 2 cats would jump into bed and cuddle until I let them escape hahahaaa…. Just look on that chokehold I have on the cat in the 2nd pic LOL…

I couldn’t memorize their names so I called all the cats Kit Kat and the doggs were Doggies.

2nd day it was time to shoot. Same great make up artist from Thursday came over and fixed us up. Then the photographer showed up and poses were thrown, backs arched, lips pouted, outfits changed, and awesome pics were taken!

Had time for a quick nap after and then it was time to head out again. Did a lounge at the Cosmopolitan to warm up and then hit Marquee. Even managed to venture into Sapphires for a little bit before heading home.

Spent the 3rd morning and day recovering by the pool. By 3pm it was time for food with this awesomely hot couple at Virgin Hotel. I had one drink and my clothes started slipping hahhaaaaa…

Barely had time to put on another of Sophie’s outfits before it was time to go again. This time to Area 15. Trippy place and just my type of spot! We ate at The Best and got to taste about everything on the menu. WOW! I overdid my eating, but that didn’t stop me from stuffing half the dessert tray in me too!

Perfect to hit the club after and dance. Loved the music!

Then it was Sunday and 4th of July. We spent it at the house with friends and later watched the fireworks at the clubhouse that had a band playing. Pretty exhausted after being out & about, so it was nice to have a chill Monday. Woke up with one of the cats in bed and his cat-butt in my face – thanks!

Also finished ‘Shutter Island’ by Dennis Lehane. I loved the book! Suspenseful and what’s really happening on the island? Then the twist in the end – yes! Just as good as ‘Mystic River’ that I read in Mexico so you want great books – grab these 🙂

Last day in Utah now. Already been out and gotten my lashes filled in. Tomorrow I’m flying back to Puerto Rico so need to arrive in style.

Hope your had a fun 4th of July celebration and that your week taken off great! Safe flying to me tomorrow and catch you from PR 🙂

Another great…

…week in Utah has flown by. I love that I can get all my beautifications done here. Last summer when I was here I found Luxe Beauty Day Spa. I love that the lady (forgot her name) doesn’t hold back when she adds on the lash extensions. She agrees with me when I say ‘more is more’. So many times they try to convince me that it’s not natural looking with these huge, voluminous lashes, but that’s the whole point I think 🙂 If I was satisfied with natural looking, I wouldn’t get them done in the first place! She also gave me a touch up on my brows. I’m now ready to face the world and do not get in the way of my lashes hahahaaa…

It’s still super hot here, but in the evening it’s a perfect temperature for a walk. You almost always see a mountain range as a backdrop to the humongous houses. And sometimes you come across a friendly goat too 🙂

The best walk is the one to Handel’s Ice Cream 🙂 Best homemade ice-cream in Salt Lake City!

Put in some work too. Fans need their Puma and I like to keep them happy 🙂

Found an amazing restaurant and lodge in the woods too. Went straight to chasing waterfalls.

Yesterday was spent in Park City. I love it there. Cute shops, cafes, and restaurants. There was a huge market going on also. Had to constantly remind myself, I’m moving and can’t buy any more stuff! (Unless I can eat it). Sometime I’d like to stay there for a week or visit the Sundance festival when it’s happening. Oh, they also have Swede Alley there. Wonder if they named it after me? Or there’s another great Swede out there I don’t know about?

Finished the book ‘Blood Meridian’ by Cormac McCarthy. I think the book was OK, but if you are going to read a western, ‘Lonesome Dove’ by Larry McMurtry is like 10 times better I think. ‘Blood Meridian’ was partly great, but mostly I felt is was about riding in the desert with no water or food and scalping Indians and killing some other folks that got in the way…

I also bought a Kindle now. I love a physical book, but damn the Kindle is convenient. So much easier to hold when reading in bed. How funny is it that this is the book recommendation I got on it right way?

Cheers to another great week ahead! I’m off to Vegas on Thursday to visit a friend over the weekend 🙂

Salt Lake City, Utah

Been in Salt Lake City in Utah for exactly a week now. I spent a month and a half here last year around the same time and I love it. There’s a crazy heatwave here right now and it’s so hot.

One of my favorite places here is the gym. It’s huge and they have any piece of equipment you’re looking for. Or not looking for… I think this is the gym with the fittest people I’ve ever seen. Very motivating working out being surrounded by massive muscles and 6-packs hahahaaaa… Checking my gains!

My hair needed maintenance badly. Luckily while trying out a new coffee shop, I saw there was a hair salon upstairs in the building. What are the odds that it would be a great salon I thought. Well, after some Googling and reading reviews, I found out it’s rated as one of the best salons in SLC. And even more amazing was that they had a cancellation the next day and I got it! My plan was to just fix the roots, but as usual I got carried away…

What do you think? I love it! If you’re in SLC and need to fix your mane – Tallulah East Collective is the place!

Obviously I needed to capture some pics and video the next day. Nothing better than when the professionals fix your hair and it’s maintenance free for a couple of days. Better take advantage of that…

Also about 25min outside of town, there is this great farm where you can buy great meats, eggs, and raw milk. It’s called Utah Natural Meat & Milk. I like my meat grass-fed and hormone free! Best part was to say hi to the horses on the farm!

What I love the most here is the nature. There’s hikes everywhere and you don’t have to drive far to find a trailhead. Yesterday we hiked to Blood Lake and continued to Lake Lackawaxen. Pretty cool that there’s still snow up in the mountains. It’s a nice and easy trail but some annoying mosquitos around the lakes 🙂

There are so many great coffee shops here. Right now I’m sitting writing to you at The Honeysuckle Coffee Co. Their coffee is the bomb and they bake their own pastries which I can’t resist!

Oh, and if there’s any daddies out there – Happy Fathers Day to you! I’ll keep working for a bit more and I’m thinking about going to buy a Kindle. I love physical books, but with all the moving around, I hate leaving them behind.

I hope you are enjoying your weekend and I’m going to leave you with the link to one of the best newsletters I subscribe to – https://jamesclear.com/3-2-1. His name is James Clear and he’s written the popular book ‘Atomic Habits’. I haven’t read his book yet, but I love his newsletters.

All the best, Puma

Last weekend in CDMX

My visit to Mexico is coming to an end. Would be even more sad if I didn’t know that I will be back in August 🙂 Tomorrow we are flying to Utan and staying with Ari’s family. Very excited about that since I love being there. More about Utah when I get there 🙂

In my last blog I wrote that I felt better on Sunday. But that was apparently a joke. On Monday I got a stomach flu and pretty much lived in the bathroom. You don’t need more details than that LOL… I tried charcoal powder, oregano oil and some pills from the pharmacy, but nothing helped. Finally called a doctor that gave me some stronger pills and felt better later that day already.

Felt good to emerge back to normal life and be out and about without scouting for a bathroom, just in case hahhaaa…

Also straight back to being a sleazeball!

I met a cool girl named Daniella. She knows all the good spots here and recommended a place name Boxque Teva. Wow, don’t even know how to describe this place. Like a hobbit place for adults in the woods. I felt right at home. Some architect built a bunch of similar houses here and the place is just amazing! 45min from Mexico City and a $10 Uber ride away. If you are here, you must visit this place!

And look at the room we stayed in! Like something out of Red Light District in Amsterdam hahahaaa…

On Thursday morning at 7.30 Daniella came and we did breathing exercises and then cold plunge like Wim Hof. I’ve never been able to stay in more than 20 sec. This time I sat in for 2 minutes! When I was able to relax just a little, it felt OK. But I’m a bit of a wimp when it comes to being in ice cold water even though I’m a Finn.

I did enjoy the hot tub better at night time 🙂

I can’t wait to come back here! Here’s their website if you want to book a room or some activities they have 🙂 https://boxqueteva.com/

Also finished this book while sick – ‘Popular Hits of the Show Era’ by Ryu Murakami. Hmm, how to describe it. Violently funny. A male and female gang in Tokyo start killing each other. I thought it was a funny book and can recommend it.

Got our Covid tests done yesterday so we are allowed back in the US. All negative 🙂

Gonna do some shopping today and start packing. And obviously eat tacos 🙂

Stay healthy! Being sick sucks!

Kisses, Puma

Started the week…

…off strong, got sick in the middle of the week, but redeemed myself with Mezcal and cocktails last night. Slight headache this morning, but nothing that a couple of Ibuprofen and coffee couldn’t fix 🙂

Tried an amazing sushi restaurant called Sushi Kyo. A small place with limited seating around the bar where you watch the chef prepare your sushi. Sooo good and the bottle of sake was a perfect match 🙂

Added this place to my list of places where I want to eat – Boca llena Nasty Waffles! Right up my alley LOL…

Got some pics & video done before I called in sick…

Laid in bed for 3 days pretty much feeling sorry for myself. Only good thing is that I read 2 awesome books! Finished ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’ by Hunter S. Thompson and damn it’s great! One of my all-time favorites. I love this book and laughed so hard while reading it. I highly recommend it.

Also read ‘Anxious People’ by Fredrik Backman. A clever book, funny and with great characters. A book that made me feel good while reading it. Can recommend it. (I have also read ‘Beartown’ by Fredrik and think it was even better than ‘Anxious People’.)

Yesterday I finally felt better wohoooo! Always makes me realize how important health is! Tried a new restaurant we’ve been wanting to go to last night – Lorea. Had the tasting menu, muy bueno, Mezcal tasting, and to top things off – a cocktail tasting. Very good all of it!

Look forward to getting back to the gym tomorrow. Also I’m switching apartments tomorrow. Same building, different floor. I’ll finish off with 2 cars I felt were very much my style 🙂

Wish you all a great week to come!

3 weeks…

…left in Mexico and trying to squeeze in as much as I can. Right when I feel like I’m getting a bit of a grip on the city, I walk and find new streets, restaurants, stores and cafes. Also accidentally found a crossfit gym only 5min from where we stay. Much more convenient having the gym around the corner, and this one is really nice. Pics from the last gym with Kira representing my t-shirt 🙂

Visited an art museum – Museo Jumex. Pretty cool stuff, but I think the museum next door (the cool building) will be better. On my to-visit-list….

While strolling the other day I saw this. The cat looked totally satisfied being carried around in this bubble hahahaaa…

Found a new hike for this weekend. It said online it would be hard. It was steep and when we were already tired from climbing uphill, we were told it was an other 3h to the top. Got huge fomo and will have to go back at some point to make it to the top. Still great views where we stopped for a break (smoke break for me) and turned around and stumbled downhill 🙂

Oh, this hang bridge could maybe use some looking over hahahaaa…

And I almost stepped on a snake. I like snakes by the way…

You have to balance a healthy life style with some cocktails every now and then in my opinion 🙂 A hidden great bar with great drinks. I highly recommend this place if in CDMX – Xaman.

Between excursions, gym, and drinking I was being my sleazy self 🙂 Can’t really call it work since it’s too much fun 🙂

I also finished the book ‘Mystic River’ by Dennis Lehane. Wow, highly recommend you to read this! Even if you have seen the movie which is also great! Went to a cool bookstore here and picked up ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’ by Hunter S. Thompson. I can’t put the book down, it’s hilarious! I’m laughing so much when reading it, and I think it will be one of my favorite books of all time! Why show my bra? Good question… Sometimes I just get a feeling…

Going to do some Spanish homework now so I can impress Eliana on Wednesday. Hardly true, but hey, one can always try…

Have an amazing week you all!

Volcano, twerk, dogs etc…

The highlight of the past week was a road trip to the Popocatepetl volcano, the second highest volcano in Mexico. We had booked a rental car, but that was cancelled a couple of hours before our trip. Apparently there were no cars available. Someone told us this happens a lot, even if you have a booking with confirmation. No worries though, jumped in Uber and 2 hours later we got to the town Amecameca.

Some of us taking the chance to nap on the way there 🙂 Obviously I capture and post that!

Dinner in town with dogs as companions. I always sneak them some food 🙂

Next morning we started early. Town was almost deserted…

After some negotiation with local taxis and drivers we got a deal to go up to the park by the volcano. Perfect weather and clear views. Many trails to choose from and only a small fee to enter the park and hike.

The altitude made it a bit exhausting, even though it wasn’t that hard of a hike. We loved it!

It’s a small town and we hadn’t booked a ride back, so took some time to find an Uber to take us back to Mexico City. Perfect 24h excursion! Hope to do some more hikes while here.

Now taking Spanish lessons from Eliana. Is it really harder to learn when you get older? I feel sorry for Eliana who has to repeat the same stuff like 10 times and next day I ask her again how I say something… And all the conjugations, female and male stuff, puh…

Also reading, Mystic River by Dennis Lehane. I love the movie and the book is really great.

Discovering more coffee places in the city and stumble on random stuff while out walking. Like this ‘shroom’ inspired art installation 🙂

Another class of pole dancing and twerking. Watch the video of the teacher – WOW! I wish I could twerk half as good!

https://videopress.com/v/2HOs9q6G?preloadContent=metadata

You didn’t think I didn’t work did you?

That’s it for last week. Tonight meeting with a seamstress here to hopefully create more Pussitive outfits 🙂 Twerk class tomorrow and then we’ll see what the rest of the week brings along 🙂

All the best from me to you!

Kisses, Puma

Going good…

Another week in CDMX has passed. It feels like time flies here. Trying to find a good balance between working, exploring, training, and trying all the coffee shops 🙂 Best part is that most coffee shops are setup with free wifi and places to work, so you get the best combo of caffeine and work!

This weekend we took an Uber to Coyoacan. It’s a historic center and a popular place for locals during the weekend. Of course there were weekend markets and I love going through them with all the different stuff they sell.

I also love visiting churches. Not for any religious reason, but just often find them very impressive inside. Sometimes it’s nice to sit and experience the silence inside. This one had a wedding going on 🙂

In Polanco I found one of the coolest stores I ever visited – Xinu. They make soaps, lotions, and perfumes. They give you a tour when you get inside telling you about the scents. They’re all natural and they have displays with flowers, leafs, roots etc that were used… I bought a lotion and will go back and get a perfume too. They smell incredible and make sure to visit this store if you’re in CDMX!

Perfect when you have girlfriends with you and who are always ready to snap pics with no complaints 🙂 They don’t even react when I do a topless #tittytuesday pic in the middle of the city or get tempted by a gold statue hahahaaaa… That’s the type of friends I love!

Last week me & Kira decided to try a pole dancing and a twerk class. Wow, so much fun! I’ve never been any good with the pole and let’s not even talk about twerking! There was some impressive people dancing and twerking. My skills were pretty much non existent. But I’m not giving up. Going back to pole dance tonite and hope to get a twerk class later this week. I will teach my ass to move!
