This week I just discovered that I can do chin-ups

This week I just discovered that I can do chin-ups. I did my first chin-up on Monday. Thank you for this exercise. I learned that if you never try, youโ€™ll never know. 3 years of wakeboarding, 2 years of standup paddle boarding, 3 years of doing yoga and 5 months of doing CrossFit have paid off. Now I feel much stronger and healthier than before. Muscles donโ€™t build within one day. It takes time and effort. I just love the feeling when my chest touches the bar. I feel free… Read More

I love eating Korean food

I love eating Korean food. At home I always collect Korean ingredients for making Korean food. Before I went to CrossFit ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ this evening, I prepared all ingredients to make kimchi. ๐Ÿฅ• ๐Ÿฅฌ I always follow the kimchi recipe from Maangchi but reduce the amount of sugar. My kimchi will be ready tomorrow – I canโ€™t wait to eat it! ๐Ÿ˜‹ ๐Ÿค—

I finally repotted all of my little Aloe Vera

I finally repotted all of my little Aloe Vera. Iโ€™m so happy to see the biggest one is still alive. Last year it was very dry. We thought it would not live. I almost threw it out. After we came back from Europe, we noticed it has been growing again. Yesterday we went to a plant shop near home and talked to the owner of the plant shop. She gave us some tips how to grow Aloe Vera successfully. She put some dried coconut shell on top of the soil… Read More

This evening I asked Markus @armyxxl to go paddling with me

This evening I asked Markus @armyxxl to go paddling with me. He said yes and then we went paddling around our usual spot together. It was choppy. I had to bend my knees a bit while paddling to help my balance better. I actually like it when the water is not too calm. Itโ€™s challenging. I felt like I did some squats on the board today.Lol my legs and butt were sore afterwards. . #iloveSUP #keeppaddling #SUP #standuppaddle #standuppaddling #funevening #islandlife #happiness #girlonsamui #beachlife #islandgirl #simplelife

I just had a yummy vegan Buddha bowl at Kawin's Kitchen in Lamai for the first time. I always wanted to eat Buddha bowl after I watched the happy pear. @armyxxl had breakfast set. And we got pumpkin mashed with eggs on toast to go. Glad we found this place. Yummy healthy food

Today is another day of working outside, I sometimes come to work from a coffee shop when I needs more inspiration and motivation

Today is another day of working outside, I sometimes come to work from a coffee shop when I needs more inspiration and motivation. Back in my grad school years, I always studied for an exam at a cafe. For some reasons, I could focus on my study at a cafe more than at home. Smelling coffee and surrounding with people at cafe made me feel more motivated and good……๐ŸŒด๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’•Today I am wearing my new Ruby linen jumpsuit from Breeze collection @officialtaiwaree. This design was inspired by my traveling to Europe… Read More
