Yogagoodies from Manduka *

Ciao dearies,

As the end of the year is coming closer and closer I am getting ready for my New Years resolutions! Christmas is pretty much around the corner already and NYE is not far behind. So I thought it was time to get ready for 2016!

After failing Insanity, 2 times, not completing the Gluteal Goddess schedule from Bret Contreras and than not finishing the Bikini Body Guide, I decided to go for a different approach next year. I am going to do sports and activities that I actually like! Maybe combine different schedules or make my own. But one of the activities I definitely want to do more of is Yoga! When I did a 30-days of Yoga schedule with youtube videos from Yoga with Adriene I was happy! I liked doing Yoga and it made me feel better about myself, I noticed differences in my posture and my flexibility. And so therefore I want to continue this and get better in it! See what yoga can do for me my fitness, my mental health and my lifestyle.

Well one thing I need for this New Years resolution to work is a good yogamat! And so I stumbled upon Yogagoods.nl*, the only website selling Manduka* items in the Netherlands…

Hotel report – Hotel de France Invalides

hotel de france invalides fashion travel blog sarandaadriana10

Ciao loves,

I already told you a bit about my trip to Paris but I did not tell you much yet about my hotel! So here it is, a little hotel report about my stay at Hotel de France Invalides! 

Through Buzz&Go a travel influencer agency I got in contact with Hotel de France and I got enthusiatic very fast. This hotel is just gorgeous and is located in one of the most vibrant arrondissements of Paris, the 7th arrondissement. On walking distance of the Eiffel Tower and very close to the Invalides Dome.

We were given a very warm welcome upon arrival and got assigned on the best rooms of the hotel, number 503 and 603 are the best ones I have been told 😉 And we got number 503. Our hotel room featured everything needed for a comfortable stay. A super big Queen size bed (although a little bit too short for the very tall boyfriend), a shower / bath combination, a mini-bar, a water cooker to make coffee and tea (or in our case cup-a-soup). But as said, we also had the most gorgeous view from our window and balcony!

Click on the read more button to see more photos of the hotel and to read more about our stay! Thanks so much to Hotel de France Invalides for welcoming us, we had a great time!

Travel Thursday – Paris is PURE love

Travel Paris pure love Invalides Blog SarandaAdriana1

Ciao dearies,

Wednesday a week ago I came back late late in the evening from truly one of the best trips I have ever made in my life. Together with my boyfriend I decided to still go to Paris, despite all that happend on Friday the 13th last month. I have had many thoughts on still going or not. But I didn’t want to get affraid and I don’t want to give these monsters such a power over me. So we went. And I am so happy that we did! It was our first trip ever to Paris and we fell in love with this gorgeous city!

Paris is PURE LOVE! <3

When the Thalys announced this big pro-MO action for Movember we booked a super cheap return ticket to Paris as we really needed a little getaway together. We decided to go for 2 days and 2 nights, which was way too short haha 😉

Thanks to Buzz and Go we found a great hotel, Hotel de France Invalides* which gave us the perfect room with an amazing view as seen above (aaaaah!!! <3). It really was an unforgetable trip and in today’s blogpost I will tell you all about it!

Baci,
Saranda

Event report: M.A.C. Cosmetics x Extrema Outdoor

mac cosmetics extrema outdoor blogger event dutch fashion sarandaadriana17

Ciao dearies!

OMG I am so excited to share this blogpost with you! Two weekends ago I was invited to go to this huge open air festival in Holland called Extrema Outdoor. This festival is all about love, peace and music and M.A.C. cosmetics was doing the make-up for the opening and end show.

Unlimited PR asked me if I wanted to join them and M.A.C. to this festival with backstage access to see the make-up artists working their cosmetics make-up! This day I took a lot of photos, enjoyed the festival together with fellow bloggers, Laura from Unlimited PR and my lovely boyfriend who decided he could not let this cool festival pass by without joining me… 🙂

Not only was it super interesting too see the make-up artists at work, it was also really amazing that we were treated like VIP’s the whole day! From free drinks, and amazing, healthy lunch, M.A.C. touch up at the Bijenkorf and a little goodiebag from M.A.C.!

The whole experience was well conceived and organised. At the end of the day I was pretty tired but this day was really one of the coolest events I have had as a blogger! Thanks again to Laura, Unlimited PR, M.A.C. Cosmetics and Extrema Outdoor for this day, it was pretty freaking awesome!
