Fairy tale, part 2. Strekov

The second castle I'm going to show you is Strekov castle situated in Usti Nad Labem. It was an adventure! We took train and were looking from the castle... under the rain. Moreover people we saw on street didn't understand us including 'Hrad Strekov' phrase. I mean it was very hard for them, but they all helped and found it. The next pity thing is that is was closed. We didn't know it and it wasn't written on the web site. Anyway, we really enjoyed our time there, constantly blessing our coats. I really want to visit this castle again and go through this interesting ruins.



 ok, I was in Czech Republic and I was drinking beer. not a big deal. In fact we were shooting not me but the beer. the taste was great and the price is awesome.

 That's how people probably saw we in Usti nad Labem. Raining with no umbrella and cold. not a joke!



I was wearing:
Topshop coat (special feature! only in January 2012 - constant posting of this coat. Not sponsored by Topshop)
Tommy Hilfiger pants
DKNY sweater (extremely old)
Nike sneakers (prefect for travel)
handmade earrings
necklace gifted by Max (bought in China)
no brand hat
Vero Moda scarf
Diesel glasses

I guess you are all scrolling here to have a look at castle? here you are! 



A real castle, right? Hard to notice in the rocks.

Have a nice day,

Dia del Taco

Would you head to the city centre to stay in the queues to eat some cheap taco, listen to mariachis and watch lucha libre for your your birthday? Because that is exactly what I happily did! It was so much fun! I was very tired after but it was So worth it. I do hope to repeat it next year because March 31st is Taco day in Mexico. I do hope to enjoy it even more next time! As it was my birthday I wanted to wear something more flashy and festive. I went with sexy skirt, basic top and my most comfortable shoes. I felt edgy and beautiful. May be a little overdressed but who cares as it was my birthday! Who said 'taco'? I was wearing: H&M skirt (yes, i still kinda shocked they made such a beautiful and well made silky perfection) Doc Marten's Cuidado con el Perro top (I wear this shop a lot, but they seem to be so cute and affordable, I found a lot of joy in buying a top once in a while) Coach bag Necklace gift from my partner long before Fossil watch (last year'

A year of my life 2.0

It's been a year since I have moved to Mexico and honestly it still feels like a dream come to true to me. I am so happy and fulfilled here, it is incredible. I am half-way scared I might jinx it. I do pray I won't. I am also very happy how my adaptation went/goes here. I thought it might be useful to many people who relocate to a very different climate and also different culture (always applies) to share some of my tips. Each of them contributed to my well being here. I feel very local here. After all they joke Mexicans are born wherever they feel like. May be it was meant for me to live here that is why I adapted so well. Anyways, here is my piece of mind: 1 Have your eyes opened. Adapt to new reality. It is not your previous home with benefits, it is completely different. Don't expect it to be like your before-home but better in each and every position. 2 People at your new place and the place itself are not "them", it is called "us" now. Start with

Pool time!

It is finally warm enough for a pool! Can't say I am a water baby but it was very nice for me. And Just look at the super cute Ada Maria in her baby bikini. Awww, my heart melted. I definitely felt like a mom-mom in my one piece swimsuit with ruffles and a huge floppy hat. I mean, isn't it what fancy pool moms looked like when I was little. I am a little shocked to realize.. I am one of them now! P.S. it is not nearly as warm today or yeasterday but I am staying hopeful for hitting the pool or a beach  very soon. I was wearing: H&M swimsuit UniqloxInes de la Fressage hat Ada Maria was wearing: Carter's bikini Have a nice day, Lyosha
