Addicted to social media

Unfortunately I must report that I am once again finding myself addicted to social media. Instead of using my time wisely, I am wasting it by watching what others are doing or waiting to hear from someone. This is not how I wanted to spend my days and I feel I'm going backwards. 

I am currently in Bangkok and have plans to hang out with some other people, but I am notifying you that once I leave Bangkok I may limit my Internet time again. 

I will still post images to Instagram, because I get great satisfaction from sharing my photos, but in terms of Facebook I will stop posting and perhaps with YouTube I will reduce my videos to 2 or 3 times a week. I have already slowed my YouTube postings down. 

I am still in search of a purpose and social media is hindering my progress. I know I need to balance my life but sometimes it's easier to just cut off the things that create the most unbalance. 

Bali Blog :: YouTube Vlogs of my time in Bali

Be sure to check out my YouTube channel for a playlist of my Bali Vlogs. You'll see me eat lots of durian, cycle, eat at raw food restaurants, play in the sea, visit markets and enjoy the beauty of the natural landscapes.

Fun Friday

Hello, it's Fun Friday!

I have made a video for you to watch. It is 8 minutes long, most of it is in silence and is of my journey to and from work. I missed off dinner but all I ate were some mini clementines and the rest of my evening was filled with editing the video!

Watch it with your own music :) I do talk in it too...

Enjoy :D

Much love

Fun Friday

It's FUN FRIDAY!!!

Today I have to get these videos on my blog.... This man is funny, shocking, incredible, outrageous, serious, crazy, amazing, inspiring and just so good to watch.

I present to you Durianrider, aka Harley Johnstone. If you have not checked out his videos they can be found on his numerous YouTube channels below.

I think that these videos deserve to be shown on Fun Friday! Enjoy!!

I absolutely love his videos and it is a closed mind that will react with ignorance, ridicule and offense.

To check out his videos see the following links

Sweaty Saturday

It's the weekend and today is Sweaty Saturday.

The purpose of Sweaty Saturday is to share with you some exercise related information. This week I am sharing a video I find fun to do - exercise for me has to be fun in order for me to want to do it again, unless I am getting serious results! 

A few years ago I was at a gym that offered free classes and the instructor gained his certificate in Tabata, which was the start of my love for this way of exercising. Well I tend to get very distracted at the gym if I am exercising alone, I must admit I can appreciate the body of a well defined man, so I need to do exercises to keep my focus and this video is great for that. I did actually do this at the gym, I used the free WiFi and had it playing on my phone. Home exercise for me is quite difficult to complete, as I said I get distracted!

The video is from FitnessBlender on YouTube and this channel contains a lot of other workouts like kettlebells, abs, fat burning, etc too so check it out! 

I hope you enjoy getting sweaty this Saturday. Once you have worked up a sweat, don't forget to fuel your body with the best foods - fruit and vegetables! Eat clean to look lean and be 100% raw ;)

Much love

Fun Friday

Welcome to Fun Friday!

As I live in the UK, today is drawing to a close but I had lots of fun today because I made my first raw vegan lasagna! I plan on posting a recipe on Make it Monday so stay tuned for that (a lot of my food prep is mainly throw it in and see how it turns out so it won't be a professional recipe!!).

Me and my raw lasagna

So let's get down to Fun Friday with some entertainment from Megan Elizabeth!

Megan is a breath of fresh air. I love her videos, I love her mannerisms, I love that she can be so honest and show her emotions on YouTube for the world to see. I am sharing this video with you today because it is entertaining, amusing, lighthearted, i.e. FUN and I like the music! PS the original video is here but I prefer to watch Megan more!

I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did. Don't forget to check out Megan's channel regularly and keep coming back to my blog!! ;)

Much love
