This is my 4th week eating pretty much paleo. My biggest goal has been to stop eating refined sugars, candy and chips. I do crave treats though, so I’ve been baking. It’s kind of relaxing and then you get to feast! I could finish the dough alone and not even bake them hahhaaaa…
Tried a new photographer/videographer this week and we shot some super cool stuff. Got plans for some more creative psychedelic-like shoots, and I think we’ll be creating some amazeballs things together 🙂 Only got these so far…
Then Ximena shot my weekly naughty content 🙂 Do you believe in psychics? I know this psychic lady in LA that I’ve seen a couple of times and it’s crazy how accurate she is. I’ll write about it another time and tell you 🙂
Making a new mushroom jacket 🙂
Finally had to succumb and go see Angel to cut my hair. It looked like it had been electrocuted while a lawnmower ran over the ends.
Went back the next day and sorted out a manicure and pedicure…
Lunch with Sanna who is a Swedish chica living here in Mexico too. She is a really good artist and we discussed if she should paint me.
Another day, another microdose…
I borrowed a projector from a friend for my shoot and also played some cat videos for Hunter. Just the popcorn missing…
While on the topic Hunter…
Gym and mostly me in pink…
Sent this to Masha who is almost a full Doctor now. This actually happened to me in Sweden one time when I was going in for a check-up of the ‘taco’. The doctor even gave me a mirror so I could follow along hahahhaaaa…
This week is my birthday wohoooo! I’m going to the woods overnight and also doing a small get together with some friends 🙂
Now another cappuccino and some reading. I wish you a fabulous day/night and upcoming week!
I feel like I got a lot of good work done these 2 weeks. I’m still working on this site, but a little stuck right now. Shot some Psychonaut Explorer stuff. Recruited the beautiful Elisa to model too 🙂
Trying to cut out my own text from these rhinestone sheets. Not the smoothest thing, but I like the result…
And then showed off my modeling skills. Hello America’s Next Top model…
And then the stuff that’s been making (most) people happy since 19XX …
I was invited to a party called Bresh on Friday with Dyana. Can’t believe I used to party and after party until the next day. Now I was happy eating tacos at 3am before going to sleep not being totally f*cked up . I think it’s called getting old 🙁
Also feels good to be back at the gym. I didn’t work out while in LA, and then I was kind of sick for a week after. Damn it’s hard to get started again… ugh!
And not to forget Hunter S Thompson. I call him King of the Castle and he pretty much gets whatever he wants 🙂
Since he was living in the woods before I got him, I think he might of hurt his back legs at some point. He kind of just leaves them ‘hanging’ and the just plays with the front legs. Sometimes I also suspect he just might be a little lazy…
I found an awesome doctor here in Mexico City. He treats my shallow spider-veins on the legs with laser and injections. Tiny bit painful, but as we say in Swedish – vill man vara får man lida pin!
Other than this stuff I got a hair treatment, chilled in the park, and enjoyed some morning coffee in bed 🙂
Tonight I’m going to see the new John Wick movie. Also looking to plan a trip to Puerto Escondido. Everyone here says it is beautiful there and I miss the beach! And if anyone here has done overnight and multi day hiking in Switzerland, Slovakia, Norway or Finland, hit me up with recommendations please 🙂
It was a busy couple of weeks after coming back from Argentina and before going to LA. One of my favorite things after travelling is going back to the gym and getting a good sweat. Somehow I haven’t been dragging my a*s to a gym on my recent trips. For me working out is as much for my mental well being as physical health. I need to get the energy out or I’ll get feisty hahahaaa… Yeah, and I spilled coffee on me before the gym so it looks like I’m lactating something semi white 😉
Then the hair needed fixing, claws sharpened, and put some lashes on…
The weekly pics and vids were made 🙂
And catching up on cuddles with Hunter. Not really hard since when I say it’s nap time he comes and curls up on the couch with me. Or sleeps in the bed and with his back legs on the pillow hahahaaaa…
Then it was time to pack for LA. I usually don’t bring that much, because I end up shopping and bringing back an overweight suitcase 🙂 Some stuff I can’t get here in Mexico and other things are expensive here so I stock up in LA 🙂
Rented a car at LAX and I can really recommend this company called Kyte to rent from. Supersmooth. They pay for an Uber black from outside the terminal to their pickup location 10 min away. You don’t need to go to the Uber/Lyft location. Returned the car so early so no one was there, but no problem. Just take a picture of the car and jump into a paid Uber again.
Drove straight out to Palm Desert. The next day a friend of mine got married. Obviously I had scouted out a coffee spot to hit first thing in the morning. Priorities! The place is called Varraco and the coffee was superb!
That day they had some kind of Porsche meet-up at the coffee shop. I like Porches and it was great to see so many cool ones. If I’d get a Porsche it would be a GT of some kind 🙂
The wedding started at 3pm. It was a beautiful ceremony and event. They’ve asked for guests to refrain from posting on social media. I only snapped a couple of myself because I thought my dress was awesome 🙂
I stayed at a friends RV when in Palm Springs. I love RV’s and campers. I hope one day to make a longer trip in an RV and just drive, park in beautiful spots, and hike around. Maybe in Iceland? (just a little side note)
The day after the wedding I hit Varraco coffee again. Then went to check out this art installation… I wanted to hike a bit, but it was hot and decided to pack up and head out to LA… I really liked Palm Desert and will most likely come back!
It was great to see my sister, Sandy and her family. Always a lot of catching up. And now Sandy has a cat too and we decided it must be a relative to Hunter because they’re both soooo cute 🙂
My sister and I spent Monday hitting the stores. I buy a lot of my patches, feathers, rhinestones etc in Downtown LA. My sister and I have similar taste and we had an all day spree… I had to sit down while my sister tries on the fifty-eleventh hoodie LOL…
The next day I hit a location with Sandy and took advantage of her makeup skills 🙂
We hit some coffee spots too. One of my favorites is Dinosaur Coffee in Silver Lake where I used to live. Another one is Laidrey in the Valley.
Some more content being produced 🙂
And when Sandy is not around to doll me up it looks like this hahahaaa…
It sucks that the week went by way too fast!!! But hopefully it’s not too long before I get to see everyone again. My sister brought me some chocolate from Sweden. A few missing because they’ve already been devoured 🙂
Didn’t remember to take any pics, but if in LA and. you want delicious food, go to Rustic Canyon in Santa Monica. It was our last dinner with some friends and everything we ate was perfect. Super fresh and flavourful.
And then it was an 8am flight back to Mexico. I like having a whole day when I get back even though I took a 2h nap hahahaaa… My friend stayed here and watched Hunter while I was gone. I hope he still was happy to see me. He looks more confused staring at me?!?
Been very tired this weekend, but hope I’ll be good tomorrow, hit the gym, and be back on track 🙂
Sooo, we are almost done with this year. How was your 2022? Any plans or goals for 2023? What was the best thing that happened or that you did this year?
For me a couple of the most memorable things this year were my 2 hikes with my sister in Sweden. Not much beats being outdoors.
Adopting Hunter S Thompson. These pics are from this morning. He just loves getting as close as he can to my face 🙂
The Changa ceremony. I never experienced anything like it and it truly was mind altering.
I always love my trips to LA and seeing my wifey Sandy & her family. I feel like I’m part of their family 🙂 And I loved seeing more of Italy this summer… (and drinking their wine).
Also there was a lot of insightful and mind-bending trips on various ‘medicines’. Finally got to experience Peyote too 🙂
Lastly I’m very proud of launching Psychonaut Explorer.
In 2023 I hope to travel more. To see more of Mexico, and on my bucket list is to hike in Patagonia or Ireland. Maybe a part of Kungsleden in Sweden. It would be amazing to hike on Iceland too 🙂 I know I will do more mind expanding trips too and I have thoughts of obtaining the knowledge from Kambo and Iboga. I’m going to sign up for Spanish lessons again and improve my Spanglish. Continue my work and experimenting with Psychonaut Explorer. I have amazing fans so there will be more pics and videos being made as well. Mostly I hope to stay healthy because then anything can happen 🙂
I forgot to shoot NYE pics for this year so I’m reusing last years content. Being wasteful is so old anyways 😉
That’s it from me this year. I wish you an amazing New Years Eve whatever you get up to and that you’ll have an amazeballs start on 2023!!!
Worked my little butt off the week before going to LA. The feeling that you want to finish stuff off before taking off and not leaving unfinished business hanging. I’m lucky to have met Valentina who is an awesome chick and also a professional model. Didn’t take me too long to ask her to come over and throw some Psychonaut Explorer stuff on her 🙂
I also have Tanya who I dressed up. For safety reason she got to wear a helmet lol…
After that it all got a bit too ‘creative’…
Then dressed myself up on some latex, skimpy stuff and tried to pull off the librarian look. Found one of my all time favorite books too – American Psycho! It was one of the first books I read when I was younger. I realized that there actually are some amazing books out there, other than the crap they made you read at school!
Long time since I had long acrylic nails. Knowing I was going to shoot a lot in LA, I put some glittery claws on. I love long acrylic nails. Could never grow my own weak nails to something like these. Only bad thing about them, is the maintenance and getting them filled and re-painted like every other week.
Then I took off to LA. Always so excited to see one of my best friends, Sandy & her family. I call them my extra family in LA 🙂 This trip was intense. First priority was to get my passport renewed. Found an office that issues passports in 3-5 days that you have to pay some more for. Couldn’t get an appointment at the regular passport office. I love my old passport since it has memories of so many amazing travels. It had only 4 pages left without stamps plus it was expiring now in August.
Then I had contacted a Swedish girl, Monica or @Swedish_Bella on IG, that I really wanted to shoot with. Only stalked her on Instagram and finally we got to meet and play. Superchill and fun chica and we had a great day. I got more pics coming, but here are some BTS (behind the scenes) pics…
We actually had so much fun that we decided to meet up the next day and have some more fun. She also brought her friend Holly Treats that actually was like a real life sized treat 🙂 Pretty sure (fingers crossed) that I will see Monica & Holly again 🙂
Then I’m also working on a really creative and crazy NFT project with some long time friends from LA. We shot some stuff for 2 days around town and I can’t wait to show you. I have seen some of the NFT stuff and it’s trippy just the way I like it. There will be more stuff coming, but the IG page is @yardsaleonacid if you don’t want to miss out!
I also had the pleasure to shoot with Shay Sights for the first time. She been in the same industry as me for a long time, but our paths never crossed. Wow, what an amazing person and we had such a fun time. I already warned Shay she hasn’t seen me for the last time 🙂 Oh, and not to forget, her cats and dog that I was ready to take with me!
I love Sandy’s kids and between work there was the regular play time with Barbies, making dance videos, throwing parties, swimming in the pool and the list goes on… Sometimes I got the honor to babysit which you can see I handled like a pro!
Did a last photo shoot to really make sure I squeezed in as much as possible…
Time flew by way too fast. Felt like I needed one more week. But hopefully I’ll be back in LA in October. And yes, my new passport arrived in time and it was time to take off to Sweden!
I’m heading up to the northern parts of Sweden tomorrow for a 4 day hike with my sister. Hiking and being outdoors is definitely one of my top 5 things to do! Might even be number 1. What’s on the top of your list? Remember to take the time and prioritize doing them 🙂
Had to recover yesterday. Girls night got wild the night before 🙂 I decided I was only going to drink beer since shots & cocktails tend to make me go loco. It all went well until we hit the club and someone held a shot in front of me. Then there was a plant that I turned into whips and some other decorations that I got hold of. We had to pay some damage fees and then we partied on. Fun night out and everyone got home in one piece #winning 🙂
Made my friend Tanya model some Psychonaut wear. Yes, the website is still in the works and I’m trying to grow some balls to at least launch the Instagram. I’m rewriting the text and deciding on pics, but it’s all just procrastination. I just need to get it going…
There was also an art gallery night that we went to last week. Pretty cool stuff. I love art galleries and always make it a priority to visit one when in a new city or country.
Also got some pics from the photographer I shot with a couple of weeks ago. Love these pics.
Then the randomness… Me waking up, working, a guy hanging out outside my kitchen window & a couple of cute dogs I ran into 🙂
Lots of stuff to do & finish this week. Off to LA on Sunday wohoooo 🙂
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!
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!
Experienced my strongest earthquake yet. Even though I felt them when living in LA and Puerto Rico, this one in Mexico was much stronger! It was Tuesday night and we were watching TV. There’s an alarm that sounds right before it starts shaking, but we didn’t hear it. All of a sudden the couch was swaying. The security downstairs called on the intercom and told us to hurry outside. Luckily everyone was dressed. Made me realize there must be people having to run outside pretty much naked. It felt like walking on a boat out on the ocean as it swayed some more when we headed out. Then all the power went out except for some lights powered by a generator. Everyone was out on the street and some in pyjamas’s and slippers.
It was safe to head back in after about 10min they said. Slept with a bag and clothes next to the bed in case there would be aftershocks. Luckily there was none!
It was good to catch up on work this week. Shooting and going through pics from the Pussitive shoot.
Also got my lashes done, mani + pedicure, dental visit and scheduled to fix a broken cap in 2 weeks. On Friday I had planned a dinner with a girl who I have common friends in LA with. We met up at a hip Greek restaurant called Nostos. So much fun meeting someone with common friends since you pretty much already know they’re going to be great since your friends like her 🙂 Fun dinner with Jenna and I got a new favorite drink now – Carajillo. Espresso and a Licor 43. Supposedly Licor 43 is supposed to contain 43 different ingredients. Not sure if it’s true or not, but the drink is dangerously good!
Luckily I don’t always drink espressos with alcohol! Found a new cafe yesterday with super good coffee (even without liqueur) – Constela.
Also found this cute Hungarian cafe. Just scoped it out and haven’t tried it yet, but I will! It’s special since my best friend Sandy in LA is Hungarian 🙂
And sometimes I just give in to my sugar cravings hahahaaaa… I did not feel well after finishing almost everything, but it was worth the satisfaction at the moment!
That’s about it for this week. BUT, tomorrow is my birthday wohooo 🙂 For the first time it’s starting to dawn on me that I might be considered old eeeek… I don’t feel that old, but the numbers speak for themselves. I might be half way through life. Just to convince myself, I’ll post some pics that was taken when I was in Vegas visiting Sophie Dee. All youthful with pink hair. Still got it right? RIGHT???? Hahhaaaa…
Going to work some more now and later heading out for some BBQ. Next week is also Mexico’s Independence Day so I hope to celebrate that too 🙂 Never pass an opportunity to celebrate!
