Oh yeah it was a sunny ⓌⒺⒺⓀ – ⒺⓃⒹ ..

Even though you might feel like a zombie when you crawl out of bed in the morning, it’s still going to be the best time to give anything your full attention – after you’re fully awake that is!

Boom Boom yesterday I wake up early to join my cupcake Jamie Sallmén Cardio Walking class which is gonna be every Saturday at 10.00 AM at Nordic Wellness Odenplan in Stockholm, Sweden.

I’m always looking for ways to work smarter, not just harder. Everyone knows that you’ll only lose weight if ultimately you consume less calories than you burn. That’s why I love Jamie’s class because walking first thing in the morning on an empty stomach is one of the best tips on how to naturally jumpstart and boost your metabolism.

After the gym, we (me, Jamie and Sara) went for a healthy lunch at “Reload Super Food Bar”. Relaod is a place where you can load and reload with super healthy and super tasty dishes, snacks and choices made with carefully selected ingredients.

Need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city? Looking for a beach in Stockholm?

Later on, we headed to Fredhällsbadet (Location: Kungsholmen, T-bana Kristineberg).

This place is worth a visit if you just want a picnic on the cliffs or are an experienced swimmer. With views over lake Mälaren, this is a haven for those seeking refuge from noisy children and they really take their bathing experience seriously – there’s even a club.

If you live in Sweden you may notice a difference in atmosphere during summer months. On these warm summer days you will find most Swedes enjoying their long summer holidays either abroad or soaking up the rays at one of the many Swedish beaches.

The day ended with my little Shisha (Hookah), which was a fun way to relax at home. Hookah has a long, rich history in the Middle East. In these countries smoking shisha is a real ritual that symbolizes friendship and brotherhood. A relaxing break with friends, to be lived comfortably at home or more often in dedicated spaces and coffee shops.

Oh what a fun day! So how was your weekend?

Boho indoors B’day picnic


Jasmine Elnadeem

We all get to that point in time where we are so tired with work that we feel we just need to have a break or else we’ll have a meltdown. When this time comes, you think of doing something fun with your friends. 

My weekend was super duper crazy one. WOO-HOOOOO

Me and baby girl Jamie did pack a picnic basket with our favorite outdoor dining dishes then we decided to be cool and have the picnic indoors instead of being outdoors because we are not ordinary people.

Life is not easy!!

This photo is a reflection to how I feel at this moment. You might see the smile but I doubt that you know how I actually feel inside. I’m 30 years old but It’s hard to gauge the age I feel inside. I’m usually pretending to be a happy person even in hard times. I smile, laugh and make many laugh. But today it was hard to hold my tears and just feel shit about myself because there’s nothing worst than feeling orphan while your parents/family still alive!!

Imagine your happiest years being over before you even knew you had them, before you were old enough to appreciate and enjoy them for what they were. Imagine living a life in which every moment takes you further and further away from your glory days, all your favourite memories receding into an ever more distant past. Imagine being able to say by the age of 18 that your best days are behind you. That seems a high price to pay, even for the most energetic and adventurous people.

I started life in a very early age and survived, YES at this moment life doesn’t seem to be easy on me but I will SURVIVE!! Tomorrow is a new day. xoxo
