    Whale watching in Sydney

    The morning before my flight to Europe we made sure to enjoy as much as possible. I am a person who usually wakes up at 6 am. I don’t need that many hours. Ambrose on the other hand needs his 18 plus hours of sleep haha. My love…
    So I woke up, went out to out beautiful living area at our hotel and did a meditation. After that I sneaked to the bakery and got us breakfast. Fresh juice, ham and cheese croissant and a baguette. All hot from the oven !

    We got ready and went out to the city. Ambrose had prepared a surprise for meĀ  and we had to be at a certain location at midday. I had forgot my handbag back at the house. Luckily for me Leonard (Ambrose brother) met up with us to give me my bag! Our meeting point was this cool place. Loved it!

    The food-truck in the background served Lebanese dishes and were blasting absolute amazing Arabic music.
    A must return to place for me….

    My surprise was whale watching ! What kind of lovely person gives this perfect present <3
    The best part was that the guide who has been doing these tours for years told us that we were unbelievably lucky. he said they had never spotted that many whales ever! There were around 30 enormous whales around us.
    We literally had whales surrounding our boat.

    After a couple of hours on the boat we meet up with some friends for some drinks and dinner at this cool Korean bbq restaurant. Such a fun place!! I am gonna find out the name of this place for you guys, because I can really recommend it. We finished the night off with ice cream before going home and falling asleep on Ambrose’s chest.
    Perfect day from the moment I opened my eyes till I fell asleep <3

    Touchdown Sweden

    Hello again from a very weird time šŸ™‚ I was unsure were I was when I woke up šŸ™‚
    I think now its about 6am, I woke up at 4 in the morning….
    Really tried lying in bed sleeping some more but my body was ready to get up so no point arguing. I am sitting here in a empty apartment with like no food at all. The store is not open yet but its fine because I have a breakfast date with 2 of my favorites I haven’t seen in almost a year now ; Emilia & AlexanderĀ  šŸ’œ

    After that I have a ton of errands I need to do before meeting my beautiful friends tonight.
    I have been waiting for the day to start since I have all these people I cannot wait to see. Been waiting since 4am haha !!

    Yesterday after my last flight from Amsterdam to Stockholm Arlanda it was lovely to see my friend Suzie’s face at the airport. She picked me up and since I had the best sleep on (all) my 3 flights I was not tired at all. So instead of going to the apartment and rest we went to pick up some Swedish food I really have missed went to her parents house and had a small feast. Missed talking to my girlfriends here in Sweden so much !

    We stayed and talked until around 10 pm, you do have alot to catch up on after almost 11 months….
    after she drove me to the apartment. It was there when it got a bit weird. haha it felt so strange, maybe because usually my family are there or something but I felt like I was in someone else house. Not where I grew up. Very bizarre.

    This morning it felt much better. I managed to find the wifi and some tea so I am good to start the day. Alot going on today, always like that the first couple of days.

    Have a lovely day everybody. xx

    Reporting directly from Abu Dhabi

    Hi guys, I know its been days since I’ve been in here but as I am leaving for some weeks to Europe, I wanted to spend all my time with Ambrose!
    As I am writing this I am sitting in a cafeteria in Abu Dhabi Airport, after a 14 hour flight…. That was packed by the way!
    Luckily for me I slept most of the flight, wold be crazy otherwise I think hahaha.
    My next flight, to Amsterdam, is in about 45 minutes so I thought I take this time and tell you a little about the last couple of days in Sydney.

    I am just gonna be gone a couple of weeks so I haven’t even made a big deal about this trip. The love of my life on the other hand, he made sure we had some great days. As always.
    He took Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of from work. He asked me to pack and the first surprise was that we would spend some days before my flight (on Wednesday) in a apartment hotel. We got an amazing corner room, floor to ceiling windows, overlooking, well most of Sydney šŸ™‚

    We just spent time being together, eating my favorite stuff in beautiful cafeterias in the sun.
    Swimming ( in winter !!) at Bondi beach.
    And On Tuesday…he surprised me with a – whole day whale watching safari boat. More about that later. All I can say is that it was more than we could hope for, we saw around 30 whales !!! That is beyond luck.

    I need to start heading towards my gate now. Don’t know how far away it is and I don’t feel like missing it and get stuck at this (sorry) boring airport.

    I leave you guys with some pictures of our days.

    snapchat

    Sorry for such bad update! And sorry again for today’s blog because its just gonna be a short one! As I am leaving for a few weeks in just a couple of days, I just want to spend some time with Ambrose. Today we both slept in, well needed, especially for Ambrose who has been moving,commuting and working like crazy this last week.

    We woke up, met up wit Leonard and Nick for breakfast at Coast. Coast is usually packed and we always have to stay in line for a while, fortunately today we got a table and our order in straight away. The place was still packed but I guess we just got in on a perfect time-sloth I always take the vegetarian quinoa bowl whenever we are at Coast. Today I tried some Moroccan pork bun with avocado and things…not as good as my good old quinoa bowl. Well, you gotta try to learn šŸ™‚

    After a long breakfast me and Ambrose drove to see Rachel and one of my favorite human – Xavier. Whom we have not seen in over 2 months! We were there for a couple of hours. And I of course used his cute little squishy face to take some snapchat.Ā  This child is just too cute, I honestly cannot handle. When you spend time with him it gets worst! That face, his chunky body mixed with his adorable personality….holy shit. Tooo much cuteness!

    In the afternoon we drove even further to see Ambrose’s sister Anastasia and Adam. I wanted to get to meet them too before Europe.

    Now back home, we are about to get to bed. I am just gonna try our a new relaxation meditation before going to sleep. These last days I had way too much in my head then I would prefer. Way too much….

    trivia night with sister2sister

    Hours before all the gusts arrive. Prep, prep, prep

    Emotional speeches. Hearing what some of these girls have been trough was not easy to hear. Made me even more proud to be part of Sister 2 Sister. Such an amazing thing Jessica has built up!

    Bidding on some of some of those amazing things such as diamond necklaces,Ā  resorts, whiskey, etc. Forced Ambrose to pose for me all night šŸ™‚

    Winner of the diamond necklaces!

    One of my favorite part of the night was when the actual trivia started. Every table was involved which was so much fun to watch and participate in. Here is part of our table which was big and little sisters, volunteers, staff, the founder Jessica, newsreader Jacinta Tynan, and of course, Ambrose!Ā  <3

    Prep-talk before going on stage.

    One of the winner tables from last night.

    Auction started and everyone was trying to get their hands on the goodies.

    My absolute favorite part of the night! We are all exhausted and had too much energy in our bodies I think. Jessica said that we could take some balloons with us. I am a huge fan of balloons, strange thing to be excited about but nevertheless, I am! I took almost ALL of the balloons with me. Forced them into our cab with Ambrose , Marnee and Aliye.

    Great night. Thank you to everyone involved!

    Well today I decided to spend my whole day chilling. I woke up early to drive Ambrose to the train (had the biggest smile on my face when I saw all the balloons in the garage this morning! ) back at the house I did my morning meditation.

    Made myself some tea and spent the rest of the day in bed studying NLP. I don’t ever remember spending a whole day in bed, but its so damn colt! And my feet are seriously damaged from wearing high heals from 11 am to 11pm yesterday. I was in charge of taking all the pictures and handling all our social media for our trivia night for Sister 2 Sister yesterday. Maybe not the best idea to wear high heals…….

    Anyway, that has been my whole day, had no food and way too lazy to get out and buy some so it was biscuits and tea in bed. I never take the time to read anymore. So glad I did today because I have learned so damn much about our brain and habits and values and beliefs. I am going to share with you guys. Just not tonight, I just want to go back to reading more more more šŸ™‚ šŸ™‚

    xx

    lecture at UNSW

    Yesterday was a very very long day. Holy Moly…. Woke up around 5 am, hoped into the car with Ambrose. Did a long but productive day at the Sister 2 Sister office. After I took the train back to North Sydney to meet up with Ambrose and some of his colleagues. They were going to a lecture on at UNSW on Housing, Affordability and Economics something…….
    They are interested in this kind of stuff. I was there for the free food, drinks and of course, getting a ride home!

    I did enjoy the speaker though. Cant remember his name, but it was a professor from Scotland and as most Scottish I met, they are funny and charming people.

    It was a great day. I have missed being super busy like this. Since the accident where I hurt my neck I’ve been less able to do as much. So it was good. But I have to say, with the move and a long day like that I was tired as hell once we arrived back to the house. I went to bed straight away and slept from 10pm and woke up midday. Usually I get up around 6am!?!

    Today I took it easy, I went for a walk, had a coffee. Came back and started unpacking, washing, and cleaning and dusting. In a very slow pace, I’ve decided a long time ago to eliminate stress ( as much as possible ) from my life, and I think I am doing a great job !

    Now its pasta bolognese and State Of Origin in front of the fireplace. Just went of the phone with my mum who lives in Barcelona, she told me they are sweating because its around 35 degrees over there. Here in Australia we have like 10 degrees, so we are all really enjoying the fire šŸ™‚

    Breakfast in Surry Hills

    After all this moving, packing, lifting I have to say, my body is in need of a massage. This morning I could not find any of my toiletries. I then remembered that I had left some of our products in the bathroom, and the cleaners must have thrown them out! Oh well, not much to do about it now, even if it sucks a little bit.

    The sky is still gray but the city ( I am having breakfast in Surry Hills before going to volunteering ) is busy and I love that.
    I thought I start the day a bit still because I have a full day ahead of me. Woke up 5:45, going to be at the office from 9 to 5 and the going back to the flat in North Sydney for a task, meeting up Ambrose and to drive to The Sydney University for a lecture. We are going to be home around 10PM. Looooonnnggggg Day!

    Okey one hour at the time, first stop, Sister 2 Sister. xx

    Boner’s 30th birthday out on the countryside

    Posing with the birthday boy! His name is actually Burner, I through it was Boner when I first met him, so now the poor guy is stuck with it. I blame the Australian accent nobody really can understand!

    Me and Kate trying to get pictures with the enormous fire behind us šŸ™‚

    Boner tried to get us all to do some games here none of us really got the rules.

    They had food coming all night. BBQ baby lamb on spit that they had bough from the neighbors farm was by far my favorite. Hmmmm

    The giant fire that kept all the guest hot all night.

    We all camped out there on their farm. Woke up to having one of the uncles cooking us breakfast that we all had around the fireplace.

    Next night we all stayed over at Drew and Ellie’s house. I had to take a picture of the veggies they grow in their garden.

    Joke of the weekend. Heath booked Ambrose as “Ambrouzchs” at every restaurant we made a reservation for the entire long-weekend. hahah

    Found this hanging outside the veranda on the farm šŸ™‚
