Thursday sweat .. Today I invested in myself. I had today off, so it was time to wake up early for some training. I took my training to the next level.

I’m done with my first Thai PT session with André at Fightbox.

Today’s session focused on technique. André is an awesome coach and he is so generous when he explains the right moves.

Thai boxing or “Muay Thai” is a combat sport and martial art that has been developed in Thailand. It is known also as “The Art Of Eight Limbs”, because both hands, elbows, knees, and legs can be used to attack an opponent.

Today endorphins were because of the many high kicks. You know that there isn’t anyone who practices Thai that doesn’t want a higher kick. OMG so pumped!

I’m so looking forward already for the upcoming session.

Oh and thank you Emil for the awesome photos 🙂

XOXO

I don’t really remember when was the last time I filled in a colouring book because things has changed so quickly.

But colouring isn’t no longer just for kids and I found out that colouring books are topping again bestsellers lists as they help people to relax.

Colouring books allow me to control my emotions which have been affected by stress. They take me to those lovely memories of my childhood, a period with less stress for sure.

Colouring  or painting is incredibly good for your brain as you just sit and focus on what colour to take next.

So if you need some stress relief m, grab one of those books and start colouring one of its gorgeous print.

Hugs ❤

Nailed it!

Today was a day off, and it was time to just pamper myself and my nails.

Coming from Egypt where it super easy to get into a beauty salon to fix your hair and nails at same time, it was a bit shocking not to have the same service in Sweden. And finding a cheap manicure in Stockholm is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

For many months my nails went untouched but in the depths of winter, it is not easy to maintain your nail.

With the winter chill in the air, keeping your nails sexy and strong proves to be a challenge throughout the season.

Finally I found a nice nail salon, Miss Fancy  where I was really pleased and today I paid my second visit to see the super talented Felicia, she sculptures my nails like an artist that I keep watching her while working.

I was gonna have the sleek, classic nude color, but then I chose the Stylish Brown. It is a cool shade of brown with a touch of purple.

Wearing some colors on your nails or dresses through the cold-weather months show that you are confident, artistic, individualistic and not afraid to stand out from the crowd.

If you are going to fix your nails in Stockholm, then I can heartily recommend Felicia, she is nice, helpful and friendly. you can find her Instagram here.

On the other side, I tried out the new feminine fragrance of Paco Rabanne.

OMG I loved it. Olympéa is centred on the modern-day Cleopatra. She isn’t a mere mortal, she is a demi-goddess chosen over all else and no one can resist.

The perfume has both salty and floral smell, I could feel the sparkling green mandarin, the jasmine water mixed with fiery ginger lily. Still the perfume combined a premium selection of scents to obtain a bold and refreshing fragrance. The base notes are sandalwood, cashmere and ambergris.

Try it out if you like strong fragrances like me 😉
