As you can tell by the title, Xenia and I are in Portugal for a couple of days. To be exact: for 5,5 days. Originally, we were supposed to\u00a0<\/strong>stay in Lisboa for two days, before continuing our little Portugal trip to the Algarve close to Aljezur. The main reason of our little Portugal vacation was an invitation by the brand Brunotti<\/a>\u00a0to join them for a Stan Up Paddling and bootcamp weekend. Why I marked the word ‘supposed to’ fat? Well, you know Xenia and me.. I’m gonna tell you the full story now!<\/p>\n In case you’ve been watching X and my L.A. snaps or my German follow me around videos, you might already have an idea of our super fun, yet extremely chaotic and spontaneous life. If you think I’m chaotic and not the best organization talent – guess what: me AND Xenai = pure chaos \ud83d\ude42 But hey, life would be boring if it always went according to the plan, right \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Lets start from the beginning though. In January, I was contacted by the brand Brunotti, if I wanted to join them and a couple of Dutch and Belgium bloggers to a fun active SUP retreat somewhere in Portugal. Since I’ve never been in Portugal before my immediate answer was YES! New travel destinations and active trips always get me! Since my travel buddies Jay and Lina didn’t have time, I asked my favorite chaotic partner in crime: Xenia.<\/p>\n March came, but a plan where we would go, or where we should stay in Libsoa, was (obviosuly!) still lacking. X and I are very easy going when it comes to traveling: Why organize and plan everything weeks ahead, when deep down you already know, plans won’t help anyway \ud83d\ude09 I’m sure, for some of you this might sound scary and not understandable, but for us it’s our daily life. I stopped planning my life about two years ago, when I moved to L.A. Because you never know how things turn out and I learned to adapt to new situations quick and live in the moment, rather than wasting my time by planning out week and months ahead. I’m happy, if I can plan my next day \ud83d\ude09 Good (or bad) thing: X and I are the same when it comes to planning and our motto is: somehow it always works out \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n The ‘problem’ with this motto is: it works! You have no idea, how many chaotic mistakes we’ve already made together, but in the end they always seemed to work in favour for us. Plus, you know my over-all life motto is ‘Everything Happens For A Reason’ (short: EHFAR). If you’re spontaneous, open for new adventures, easy going and positive – life will work wonders for you.<\/p>\n![\"Lagos_Portugal_Strand_Bucht\"](\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSC08472.jpg\")
