Making memories :)

Sea is just hypnotising...It makes me feel free and inspirational. I was wandering around yesterday and I took few pics...Like always ;) photography relaxes me. What do you do in your free time? Photography is incredible for me because I can capture moment that will not be back...I capture what I see in a moment it's how it is. It makes me smile. I'm making memories for myself. Almost I can see that moment through photos. Photos are like small beautiful pieces that your eye caught...but only you! We all see things but from different perspective...This hobby is not just for professionals its for all of you/us :) As I said we all see things differently...

Enjoy !

Queen's Garden, Tranekær, Danmark

Hi lovelizzz! 

Here is new adventure of mine :) 

It's TICON (Art and Nature Center) Really lovely place and worth to visit. It's in Tranekaer Castle's garden which takes 60 acres of castle park. You can see the old and distinctive trees, lawns, meadow, and lake reside in the midst of fertile plough land. In former times the counts of Tranekaer created interaction between the man-made and the organic by planting and shaping the landscape. 

This was made by Alfio Bonanno (2001) 

The catch is here that you walk around with a map trying to find those gems. It is really interesting.

This is from Stuart Frost (Embla, 2008)

By walking around you see so many interesting things; there is more then just art installations. Nature is divine!

This is Diamond Mine (2011) by Dan Snow

My advice for you would be to come in spring or summer because there are more sunny days so you can be outside whole day and nature is more luxuriant. 

Surrounding is beautiful. We had lunch on wooden bench near the lake. Also there is a restaurant for those who like something more cozy.

There are just photos of three installations, but there are 19. I couldn't post all of them so I've chosen few just to show you what to expect if you decide to visit this amazing place. We spend 5hrs wondering around and yet we didn't see all. I'll probably visit it again. 

It's so fun to follow the map and find all those gems. It's almost childish feeling :)) 

I am really impressed!

So when you decide to visit this amazing Garden you should also visit Botanic Garden/ Medicine Garden. There are plants from all over the world. I was surprised to see for example Ginseng plant or chocolate flower. It really smells and tastes like chocolate lol. Garden is beautifully shaped and plants are selected for which organic system they're useful. 

That's all folks :))  Hope you enjoyed reading this post.

100 day challenge !!!

Hi guys hope you're having a great day :)

I started a 100 day challenge it's going good so far. In a week I've lost 1 kg but I suppose that's the extra water and little bit of fat lol. I love it!

Today is day 6 and it's leg day :)

I'm feeling like this pic lol I worked out for 50min. More I see the results; more I want to work out. 

Of course I'm taking care of what I'm eating, It's 100 day low carb challenge but I'm taking more fruit so making it healthy as much as I can. I love my body so I want to give it a good care :)

About training; I work out 2 days and have one day off  and so on... I use that day off to relax my muscles, It's recovery time. 

Have fun and make schedule for yourself; so it won't be boring to workout. You can try new things and it keeps you motivated. Of course we all have those lazy days but we move on. 

You can have upper/lower body workout, or just go for a run, or work out at home, gym where ever you want, or just go for a fast walking....Just make it fun. For me huge motivation is a good song list to keep my adrenalin up. It works for me..Try it! 

Also I wanted to update you about slow running thing that I've tried. It's good...REALLY!!! You can run more and just keeping up with fast walking and little running it really burns. I've put that on my list :)

Book Recommendation !

Hi lovelizzz ;) 

This book was recommended to me by the bookstore owner.  I was sceptical at first but after a two chapters it got my attention. 

From Barcelona, with Love

Here is tip in;

"From the Hollywood Hills to the streets of Barcelona, from lush vineyards and wineries to the most exclusive homes in Europe, let Elizabeth Adler take you on a journey with a story that will hold you spellbound. 

Bibi Fortunata was the hottest ticket in town: singer, actress, and celebrity. Two years ago she was arrested on suspicion of murdering her lover and his new mistress, who was also Bibi’s best friend.

Bibi was front-page news in a way her publicists had never dreamed of. But the police were never able to prove anything and she was set free, with the cloud of suspicion and murder still hanging over her. Bibi left for Barcelona where she quite simply disappeared.

But when Bibi’s daughter comes to private investigators Mac Reilly and Sunny Alvarez for help, they can’t resist the temptation to solve this mystery once and for all. Who really killed Bibi’s lover? Who would want to frame Bibi? And who is beckoning them from Barcelona?

Filled with Adler’s trademark lush descriptions, twisty plots, and decadent luxury, From Barcelona, with Love will transport you. "

Visiting Dubrovnik, Croatia

This was a great adventure even tho it was raining all the time. Dubrovnik (Italian Ragusa) is a Croatian city on the Adriatic sea. The city is beautiful and the food is fantastic. 

"The prosperity of the city of Dubrovnik was historically based on maritime trade. As the capital of the Republic of Ragusa, amaritime republic, the city achieved a high level of development, particularly during the 15th and 16th centuries. Dubrovnik became notable for its wealth and skilled diplomacy."

"After the fall of the Ostrogothic Kingdom, the town came under the protection of the Byzantine Empire. Dubrovnik in those medieval centuries had a population of Latinized Illyrians. After the Crusades, Dubrovnik came under the sovereignty of Venice (1205–1358), which would give its institutions to the Dalmatian city."

The Venice influence is almost touchable. I like that a lot. It is incredible how much this city reminds on Venice. I could imagine the parties and dresses, ladies in a boats, counts, masks etc. 

This city left me breathless. Even tho right now when I'm writing/remembering all things there my heart jumps.

Most of the monuments you can enter free and some of them you have to pay but its not expensive and its worth its 20-50kn (Croatian kuna). If you like to visit the wall which surrounds the city it costs 50kn. View is stunning!

Also there is small marked place with homemade stuff like jams, dry fruit,cheese, wine etc. I personally liked dried figs and oranges. 

The first photo is;  The Rector's Palace with a Gothic-Renaissance structure that displays finely carved capitals and an ornate staircase. It now houses a museum.

The second photo; Walls of Dubrovnik and small harbour

The third photo; The St. Saviour Church is another remnant of the Renaissance period, next to the much-visited Franciscan Monastery. The Franciscan monastery's library possesses 30,000 volumes, 216 incunabula, 1,500 valuable handwritten documents. Exhibits include a 15th-century silver-gilt cross and silver thurible, an 18th-century crucifix from Jerusalem, a martyrology (1541) by Bemardin Gucetic and illuminated psalters.

I hope you enjoyed in this written adventure because I really enjoyed in this trip !

Ammi xoxo

Skovsgård Manor

Hello, lovely people! I wanted to share with you this adventure from the other day. I went to visit Skovsgård Manor. Which is built in 1800. Very impressive building. For the most of you which are wondering where this place is; Its Danmark, Langeland to be precise. 

You can enter inside and see where the family lived and where were the service people and how they lived, butler pantry and all that stuff. Also you can wear historic clothes and take pictures for fun. 

Property is open so you can walk all over it except for few private parts. There is an organic cafe where you can eat delicious meals. Menu is changing every day. Whole place is very interesting.

You can check more on: www.danmarksnaturfond.dk

That's all from me today :)

Til next time !

Anxiety Battle

Hi lovely people ! 

I didn't know what to write but my thoughts brought me to anxiety again. I had a really stressful weekend so I've decided to write about anxiety battle. People feel anxious about lot of things in life but we all differently react on it. In previous anxiety post I wrote that for me the last drop was the antibiotic pill that I had to take and it really was scary. I had never had that kind of reaction on pills and lot of fear. I thought I'm going to die. Even one year and a half after that I still have small fear when I need to take something even if those are painkillers. I have to admit I am much better then that period but still I'm working on few things. I know lot of you are wondering how am I going to live with this and what is going on with me etc. I've been there and I know all those questions. 

First of all it's a slow process. You have to take step by step. Find something that makes you happy. Don't be afraid of life because the fear is only going to hamper you from life! 

Do you want that? NO!

Take time for yourself, do whatever you like and try not to think about all those "what if" questions. All those "what ifs" makes you tens and anxious. For example what if I faint on the street or what if I have panic attack outside etc. But YOU WON'T, and so what if you do...from the childhood you learn important lesson. When you fall down you just get up and move on!!!

This is the same. You start to feel anxious and like you're going to fell a part, you think I don't need this I want normal life without any limitations and you move forward. 

Every step feels like victory and it is. Every day is a victory and you are getting stronger!

Don't be afraid to explore the outside world! There are lot of beautiful things to see and to explore!

OK your heart is pounding hard, so what you're healthy and nothing is going to happen. At beginning for me was calming to measure the pulse. When I see it's normal and that body is trying to trick me into anxiety it makes me calm. I know it's just a feeling and nothing more. So when I ignore it, it passes and I feel better.So you will too. Don't be afraid it can and it will be better!!! 

Have a great week!

Anima Sana I Corpore Sano !

Hi lovelizzz :) Today I'm willing to try new method of working out; "Slow Running". It's something between fast walking and running.  As I said in one of the older posts I'm not a much of a runner, I'm more gym type. I want to enjoy in a beautiful weather while I can because winter is coming and there will be lot of gym time. 

So, my snickers are ready :) Also I'm going to try this Samsung App ( S Health ). I have never tried working out with the app; so there's first time for everything, right! 

It's windy today but I have to try it. Little bit wondering how will my body react to this kind of training. 

Okay, time for me to go. I'll let you know about details. 
If you have experience with slow running please leave a comment or write me on ammime77@gmail.com

Bye xoxo

Perception !

Hi guys! I didn't have any idea what am I going to write about and then I had this misunderstanding about what to do to get lean ?! And then I have realized that man see us differently then we are seeing ourselves. 

Mostly they see us as fragile beings but we see ourselves as strong. Why am I saying this. The misunderstanding was that the best workout is running because you are losing weight (and of course looking smaller) instead of working out at gym with weights (stronger and muscle defining). Most of us (woman) want to be strong and without fat. I prefer gym to be sincere. I'm not much of a runner. So I saw the difference between the perception. We don't want the same thing. So I really don't care as long as I'm healthy and fit. 

What can I say more you are strong either way. You are strong and you'll always be because it's in your nature. 

Before that I was thinking to try run more then 15min, because I always use it to warm up and then continuing the workouts but now I'm spite so I'm canceling til next day. Dammit feeling so furious!

Well, til next time :) xoxo

Markets day

The other day I went to see Ice sculpting. That man is incredible. That is a hard job to do, really. He worked 3h on 375kg of ice. I think he's the rare artist here who has specialised on ice. It was incredible to see.

Sorry for the photo if it's not good. It was the best that I can take. Can you believe it how hard is to catch the figure in the ice? Sun reflection, its like a glass, so delicate.

Healthy benefits from GRAPEFRUIT !

I wondered what am I going to write about today and then It clicked in my head when I saw my bottle of  grapefruit water :) I drink it almost every day because it gives me energy and I feel fresh inside. Sometimes I mix grapefruit and lemon or orange but mostly I drain one grapefruit in bottle (1 liter). It's kind of habit to drink at least 1 liter (pure) water per day.

The grapefruit is subtropical citrus which is first bred in Barbados. When its found it was named "forbidden fruit". Grapefruit is an excellent source of different nutrients. It's a good source of vitamin C, fiber pectin, antioxidants. Studies have shown that grapefruit helps lower cholesterol; its an effective antioxidant; also there are stories about Grapefruit diet which begins with fruit's low glycemic index which helps body to burn fat.

I read lot of studies about "boosting metabolism" but I think grapefruit helps, it helps to boost metabolism and 58.7% of vitamin C in one grapefruit helps with fat metabolism; also it contains lot of proteins and 90% water; So it makes your tummy feel full and you eat less. The studies showed that people who used grapefruit lose more weight then the group of people who didn't use anything of grapefruit (juices, salads, meals etc.)  

Even if you don't do dieting eating half of grapefruit before meal will help you lose the weight and it will start your metabolism. Grapefruit is also good for your skin, respiratory tract, arteries, hair, stress, headache etc. Some studies have been done on grapefruit effect on cancer. 

If you want more info about grapefruit studies and more about its benefits check here:  http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/5495.php 

I just want to warn you one thing!!!! The grapefruit has some interactions with some drugs. It's not for worry but it increases or decreases work of some of them. So if you use some you should check with your doctor before you start to use grapefruit in your diet.

Easy meal, healthy meal :)

I wanted to share this recipe with you... Rice can be fun #HealthyMeal

The Queen Rice :)

All you need is little bit of olive oil, and fry vegetable a little. You can use whatever you want. I have chosen for this meal one small onion, garlic, carrot, champignongs, red pepper (I grilled it before I put it with the rest of the ingredients because of its skin),corn about 100g, spices like parsley, dark pepper, salt, mix of spices, little of basil, powder of red pepper. I stewed vegetables for about 15min. You'll see when the vegetable is softened. Add the rice and water (little above the amount). Cover it and let it cook. After all water is evaporated try the rice. If its not cooked add little more water and cover it. This meal is done in 30min. Easy to prepare and healthy!

Enjoy!

Ammi
