Me whenever a stranger on the internet tries to ruin my day:
When I have connecting flights, I try to travel with a carry-on only, since airlines have already lost my luggage many times. This means working with limited suitcase space and having to sacrifice less important items, like, for example, panties.
You know well enough that many things in life have to be routine, hard and a little bit boring. But you also rightly sense that, if only you can find a way, your life could be rendered intermittently more joyful, thrilling and beautiful. I can help 🙋🏽♀️🌊👙 And I’m only a contact form away 🥰💌
I guess most people who are considered extremely wealthy in their cities in what’s geographically the middle of the US would be considered ‘nobodies’ wealth-wise in high-cost-of-living areas? You could say similar things about most countries, but I feel the difference is more extreme in the US?
Spa afternoons together before dinner dates are becoming the norm, and I’m here for it 💘
A Himalayan salt wall, a sand massage bed, the best lymphatic drainage massage I’ve ever had in my life, and the most thoughtful, generous gentleman waiting upstairs for a spicy dinner date 🌶️
What’s your go-to order at Japanese fusion restaurants like Nobu, Zuma, Roka, Akira Back, etc.? I’ll start 🙋🏽♀️ Otoro nigiri, yellowtail with truffle ponzu, wagyu tacos, crispy rice, popcorn prawns with spicy mayo, black cod, spinach salad with truffle-sesame dressing 🥰
Hands down the best way to see Istanbul 🛥️ 🇹🇷 I don’t do well with crowds, queues, and summer heat 🥲🕌
Neolokal 🌟 Another absolutely perfect evening in Istanbul 🥰 Neolokal bridges the gap between old and new: flavours from the past are the mainstay here, reimagined with contemporary ideas and techniques. Delicious!
Treats are still coming through! 🎁 If you forgot, it’s not too late to send yours 💕 I’d love to show you my gratitude in person the next time we meet 👅
