Some leftovers from 2022

I got some leftovers from 2022 that I thought I’d share.

Got back from San Francisco last week. It was a great trip and fun to be back in my old hoods. I lived there for a year. When it was time to land at SFO I look out of the window and there’s a plane pretty damn close to our plane. Never seen that before. And when we start to go down and are about to land, our plane just speeds up and takes off again. The captain announced that it was crowded on the landing strip. No shit. I think the Southwest plane beat us lol…

First thing I did was to meet up with Patricia and her doggie. I met her at the crossfit gym when I lived in Mountain View. She is Mexican and has the same humor as me – nothing being off limits. So the day I met her at the gym, we are holding ourselves up in a pull up position for as long as we can on the bars. She looks over at me and says: “This reminds me when me and my family climbed the wall over from Mexico to the US”. I just crack up and had to let go of the bar. “Beat ya’ blondie” she says and kept hanging on the bar hahahaaa…

All of a sudden while we’re eating we hear a engine revving and a loud noise. Turns out this lady hit the gas a bit too hard and ended up in the mid section of the road. We talked to her and she was fine…

I hit all my favorite coffee spots while in town. Verve, Wreckingball, and Ritual being a couple of them.

Excited to get my mouth on some Ben & Jerry’s Strawberry Cheesecake ice-cream and getting a selfie with my favorite Elf who was in the neighbourhood.

Santa was nice this year too. Or maybe it’s just me who was nice and got rewarded 🙂 A pic of me and the ugliest wrapped Xmas gift. But it’s the inside that matters, right?

Got some coffee too, Puma socks and so excited about the Meta VR set. I think VR is amazing and if you have any cool tips on what to play or experience on there, please let me know. I do have Resident Evil but I got stuck at the first door cause I couldn’t figure out how to open it hahahaaa…

That was about it from SF. Before I left I was invited to another Guess event by my friend Dyana. Why can’t I do my hair like this on my own???

I also put together a small Swedish pre-Christmas celebration. I made meatball sandwiches with ‘rödbetssallad’ which is beet salad, some cured salmon with this sweet mustard from IKEA, and this amazing Daim cake.

Had some friends in town and we went to see the Teotihuacan pyramids. I had no idea about the history behind them. Someone said there are some documentaries about them and I want to see that. If I remember correctly they built these to be positioned after the stars. In the first photo on the 3rd row you can see how they apparently messed up the positioning of the building. They then just rebuilt a new structure on top of the messed up one with correct positioning. Very cool and if you visit Mexico, go see them.

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

And working out… Or checking how my mobility is 🙂 This could maybe be useful in other places than the gym hehheee…

Good thing I got more Puma socks cause Hunter likes to represent LOL…

Ok, time to move over to 2023! Have a fantastic week!

Friends, Shooting & Party

This week was great. When I scouted out Mexico City last year before moving here, I ran into Daniella. To be more accurate I was coming out of a bathroom when I hear someone asking “Are you a Psychonaut”? I was wearing my Psychonaut hat that I guess gave me away. Long story short, we have stayed in touch after she left back for the US. She was back in town for a week so first I dragged her wig shopping with me to Downtown. Also pimping her out in a Psychonaut hat 🙂

Next day I put a Psychonaut jacket on her and said – model! I thought the big dog was going to knock her over LOL…

Daniella also happens to be probably the most social person I met. In an hour she had put together a dinner party at my place for later on that night. Met 3 more awesome people who all one way or another had been befriended by Daniella. Forgot to take pics 🙁

Then it was time to shoot with Alberto again. Hence the wig shopping with Daniella earlier. I love creative shoots and it’s a luxury when you get your makeup and hair done by professionals. Here’s some BTS pics…

Compared to shooting at home 🙂 Just as fun, but it’s nice to be spoiled at times!

Worked on the pictures we shot last week of some clothing. Almost got a fear of heights sitting up there 🙂

I think I told you I met a fellow Finn at the gym. Gorgeous, tall, and strong as a bear. She hit me up on Friday evening asking what I was up to. We decided to go for a couple of drinks at some bar. Yeah right! We came home at like 04.45am – oooops. Finns don’t half-ass things! Again, I forgot to take pics 🙁

Tonight I was suppose to participate in a special ceremony here. But it started pouring rain and there was hail so I decided to stay home. This ceremony was to be outdoors and last until morning. A bit disappointed, but there will be other ceremonies 🙂

Hope you enjoyed your weekend and grab the next one by the ___________ 🙂

Food, friends, Mezcal, & Engagement

It’s been a couple of busy and fun weeks. First of all I received my Mexican Residency Visa, wohoooo! I feel a bit like I’m Mexican now 🙂 Considering it all, it was pretty smooth to apply and get it. Not like getting a greencard and then citizenship in the US. For me that included an expensive settlement with the idiot I was married to, and then going to court to get the citizenship.

Then there was April 1st. Do you guys do pranks on April 1st where you are? They don’t do it here in Mexico, but we always did it in my family. I had to go a bit easy on mom when she was getting old and didn’t want her to have a heart attack. One of my jokes to her one year was calling and saying there were riots in LA. I said I was hidden in a closet while fake crying. Then telling her with a panicked voice that they were breaking into my apartment. My mom started crying and I finally admitted it was April Fools… Mom was not too impressed. This year I posted this pic on my Instagram and claimed it was a drunken decision to tattoo some paws on my face. They kind of grew on me so don’t be surprised if I soon appear with paws on my face 🙂

I had a photoshoot with a new photographer. Supercool chick and who practiced her English with me and I tried my Spanish with her. There was some confusion and misunderstandings, but we got some cool pics of the Psychonaut clothing 🙂

Then a couple, Jared & Salma, that we know from San Francisco arrived here in Mexico City. So much fun with friends in town! The big thing was that Jared had planned to surprise Salma with proposing to her. It was all a big secret and I was involved in luring Salma to the location. First we went to get a mani + pedi. Very smart since there was going to be a photographer taking pics of the ring and you want a fresh manicure for that. Then I was to suggest drinks at the Four Seasons, where a bartender was going to come over with a key and ask Salma to go up to a room. I was to receive a phone call and just excuse myself. All according to plan and we had time to order some sparkling water before the bartender appears with a box, note, and room key. Salma was suspecting she had been tricked and there might be a proposal coming. I just played dumb and surprised. Long story short, all went great and she said yes 🙂 I was too excited to even remember to snap pics.

There’s been a lot of dinners when they’ve been in town. Lorea, a place we visited before, but great food and drinks.

A new place for us called Sud 777. That was a great tasting menu! Can highly recommend this restaurant if you are in CDMX! A couple of the dishes…

We also did a Mezcal tasting with El Tigre. They come highly recommended and people were writing on Reddit it was the best Mezcal they had in Mexico. And yes, I agree! Super smooth and tasty Mezcal. Good info about the procedure what goes into producing the drink. The wooden club I’m holding is used to smash up the plant. Got food too and before I knew it I was drunk and had to go straight home and sleep for 2h hahahaa…. But if you looking to have some great Mezcal, look for El Tigre!!!

A little bit of sleezing in between all the dinners and drinks…

I have had problems with my shoulder and wrist. Got recommended to go see Diego. He’s Colombian and they said it would hurt. No joke, he turned up the electricity on the patches until my arm was jerking off the massage bench and the massages he gives, is like being run over by a tractor. I’m so sweaty after trying to get through it all, but my shoulder and wrist feels better. He also goes through my legs and these ‘airbags’ were the most comfortable thing he let me try 🙂

Also found this great spot that’s kind of hidden – Traspatio. So nice inside. Small menu and great drinks.

I also made Salma put on a Psychonaut sweater and received some more clothing samples. We’re making progress 🙂

Here’s the leftover pics 🙂

On Tuesday night I fly to Sweden. I’m so excited! Long time since I’ve been back, so it’s going to be so good to see everyone 🙂 And eat Swedish candy. Oh, I might have some surgery too if it all goes according to plan. Nothing serious, just beautification heheheee….

I hope you all are great and don’t forget to #mute 🙂
