Hello October

So I guess it's already October and I swear to god 2015 started like 2 months ago. Times is going so quickly and soon it will be Christmas already. 

But I love October. I love the colours and the not quite cold yet but cold enough to wear jumpers weather.

This month is gonna be very busy for me. Lot of work to do and a lot of planing to do. It already started with good news which I can't share yet, so hopefully it will end even better. 

Happy October everyone! 

Places I like #1

I know I said before that I was coming back and post more regularly, but it's so hard when you don't have a laptop and no time! Hopefully this won't be for long since I'm planning to buy one very soon.

Anyway, I've decided to do a new thing. Every now and then I'll post about some of the places I like or have been, either in Liverpool or somewhere else. This could be a restaurant, club, park or whatever.

And to start with, I've chosen one of my favourite places for a good "brekkie" (for those who don't know, its the scouse word for breakfast) not only because I know the owners, but because it's actually a good place.

I'm talking about the Onion Deli on Aigburth Road. Just off Lark Lane (another on of my favourites), its a little deli, that serves from all day breakfast to sandwiches, fritatta, salads and wraps.
Last time I was there was a couple of weeks ago, where I was treated too well by the lovely staff. I had the full English (as always) with homemade beans which were delicious. The bread is amazing and if I'm not mistaken it's from a local bakery. They also have delicious homemade cakes that's are to die for. 

Baby shower

Guess who's back? I know I said before that I was planing my comeback and never really came back but this is it. I'm coming back. Yay!

So last Wednesday it was my friends baby shower. We decided to throw it as a surprise and it was amazing to see her reaction. 

The shower was at a restaurant in the city centre and it was great. 

I'm so excited for little Maya to be born. 

Holidays

Hi everyone!!

So I've just returned from my week at home. And it was great!! But it went so quick, I wish I had book two weeks instead of just one. 

I got amazing weather and finally got back to my natural colour, which is tanned, not pale. Yes, I know you'd say I'm not pale, but since I came to England I think I got whiter (if that's even possible). Anyway, I spent 3 days at the beach and then rested and sorted some bits and bobs Friday and Saturday, and today it was time to get back to reality. 

I don't really have much to tell you about my time there, since I didn't do anything really special, except obviously lay down in the sun, get a tan and a sunburn (yes, I do get bad sunburns, as my skin is very sensitive), but I will leave you with some snaps I took. 

Hope you all have a great week ahead. I know I will be working and sorting my new place. 

Planning my comeback

Hi everyone!

Every year i do the same. Plan to have a blog, make a couple of posts and then get so busy with my life that I end up forgetting about this. But fear not, I am planning on coming back, this time for good, hopefully!

I'm going on holiday on Monday, YAY!, so after that I'm planning to be back and here to stay. So just keep an eye here.

Hope you all have a nice weekend/ week.

Oscars, selfies and photobombs

I know I am super late for the party, but rather late than never right?

First thing I have to say: how is it possible that DiCaprio hasn't won an Oscar yet? Especially after his amazing performance at "The Wolf of Wall Street"? I haven't seen "Dallas Buyers Club" yet, so I can't judge Matthew's performance on it, but seriously, DiCaprio has been waiting for this for years. And the photos I have seen on the internet were super funny, but poor DiCaprio. I felt really bad for him.

Second thing is I haven't seen the ceremony, and it is possible that I will never see it. Not that I don't like it, but it won't be on telly again and I can't be bother with it. However I seen a video of the part with the pizza delivery, which I found hilarious since most of the women were like "It's pizza, I'm not eating that" (If it was me, I'd ask for two slices) and Brad Pitt looked like he didn't have anything to eat for days. 

Third, the selfie everyone wants to be in. I mean everyone, because the amount of photoshopped versions I have seen with different people is insane. Even Homer Simpson wanted to be in it (that was my favourite one).  But seriously, that's the coolest selfie ever. Imagine just casually taking a selfie with Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Meryl Streep, Jared Leto, Ellen Degeneres, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie... oh wait a second, Lupita Nyong'o's  brother did it. Lucky bastard. 

And for last, the photobombs. I will never, ever get over Benedict Cumberbatch's photobomb. It was the best. ever. I mean, he looks like a 10 year-old boy in it. But that wasn't the only one. Apparently Jared Leto's also likes to be a photobomb. And Lupita. And Benedict again. And Jared, again. 

Because I'm like the coolest (not) person ever, guess what? I'm showing the pictures one more time, just in case you live in Mars and haven't seen it yet. 

The Simpsons edit. See if you can find Bart.

 Best. Photobomb. Ever. Mr Cumberbatch ladies and gentlemen.

Oh Leto!

What's up with his face? haha

So Lupita was photobombing Leto. Ok

 Poor thing. Didn't have food in days.

And for last, here's the gif for the second Benedict's photobomb. Enjoy.

My bucket list

The other day, in conversation with a friend I decided to do my bucket list. For those who don't know, the bucket list is a list of things you want to do before you die.

Obviously, this is something you really need to think about, but some of them are something I always wanted to do. This is what I have so far, but I am sure I am going to be adding some with time. So here it goes:

• Experience New York
• Go to Abu Dhabi, Australia and New Zealand;
• Live and work in LA (ultimate life goal!)
• Sky Diving and Bungee jumping
• Drive a Lamborghini and a Ferrari 
• Travel in Europe for a whole month
• Own a pair of Louboutins (i know, superficial, but my dream shoes)
• Volunteering in Africa
• Work for Google (yeah, never going to happen)
• Scuba diving in the Caribbean
• Volunteer for an animal shelter
• Go to a Champions League and World Cup Final (preferably one where Benfica or Portugal is on)
• Do a coast to coast road trip in America
• Do a Safari
• Go to the Maldives or Fiji islands
• Have another Surf lesson, in Hawaii 
• Having my own marketing agency
• Do a photography course

I know they are mostly travel related, and some of them  are not even achievable, but I would like to think they are. If you have no idea of what you want to do and need some inspiration or just want to have a place where you can keep record of what you want to do and what have you done, here the bucket list website - http://bucketlist.org/ - it's completely free and you can share your goals with your friends.

So share with me some of your wishes! Too curious to know.
