Couples top 10 travel bucket list

Tristan and I are always looking to go on a holiday. We want to see the world as much as possible but obviously some countries are more attractive than others. Here are both of our top 5 dream places we would like to visit some day - I hope we can start crossing them off soon! 

JANA'S TOP 5

1. Petra, Jordan - It has been a long dream of mine to visit Petra. The second I learned about this city, I was intrigued about its history and archaeology - I am a big fan of both. I love deserts.



2. Fraser Island, Australia - I've already visited Australia and I would love to discover more of it. I love nature, so the idea of visiting this heritage-listed island with rainforests, sand dunes and amazing fauna and flora would be a dream come true!



3. Machu Picchu, Peru - Everyone has heard of the Inka and the mysterious ruins of Machu Picchu. The saddest part is that the site suffers from the pressure of too many tourists. Tristan says, 'That's what you get when you build cool stuff' and I totally agree with him!



4. Japan - There aren't any particular cities in Japan I would like to go to but the country in general would be amazing to visit. I really like their culture, temples, cuisine and tea. Tristan speaks and understands some Japanese, so we would be quite safe travelling around.



5. Grand Canyon, Arizona - This looks like an incredible place to be - sitting up high on a rocky cliff surrounded by a beautiful view. I am not a big fan of hiking but I am willing to do it just to enjoy this! I would make another exception and camp there a few days but Tristan is not a big fan of outdoor-sleeping, so one whole day would have to do.



TRISTAN'S TOP 5

6. Antarctica - Tristan's biggest dream! He loves snow, cold weather and anything unique, which I can confirm Antarctica definitely is. Even though I am the opposite (for sun, hot weather and the beach), I don't think I would let him go alone - these penguins are too cute to miss.



7. Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia - the world's largest salt flat! The ground is covered with salt and other minerals which reflect the sky. Salar de Uyuni is also a breeding ground for pink South American flamingo, other bird species and animals. Salt for Tristan, pink flamingos for me!



8. Galápagos Islands - When I ask Tristan what is so interesting about the Galapagos Islands he says two things - big turtles and Charles Darwin. Well, this answers all of my questions.



9. Jellyfish Lake, Palau - Palau is an island country located in the western Pacific Ocean and is home to several jellyfish species. The lake is open to tourists - it is absolutely safe to snorkel with these cute little jellyfish.



10. Cuba - When I think about Cuba, this picture immediately pops into my head - I think it says more than words. I am sure this beautiful island with a long history, interesting culture, white-sand beaches and a colourful capital pulls almost everybody.

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

10 things to do in Rockhampton

I have still a couple more posts coming up about my Australian trip. I hope they are an interesting read! After Brisbane , we flew to Tristan's hometown Rockhampton where we spent the remaining 2 weeks of our holiday. Rockhampton is a small city in Queensland with a population of around 62,000 people. Rockhampton experiences over 300 days of sunshine each year, which means it is a good place for tourism and outdoor activities. Known as the "Beef Capital of Australia" there is much more to do than just sit in the pub and eat burgers! I have made a list of 10 things you can do around Rockhampton. 1. Rockhampton Kershaw Botanical Gardens are a well visited attraction in Rockhampton. The park has many paved walking paths, rest areas, drinking fountains and beautiful scenery with many palms and tropical flowers.   2. Quay Street in Rockhampton is full of beautiful architecture and old buildings. The city centre (main street) is not very big but I think we spent at ...
