Visiting Holland for 2 weeks was my plan but became 4 months🤍#covid

Done. WEEKEND! Have a good one🌻⁣
Packing my last things for Portugal, seeing friends and training for sure. ⁣
Last 1,5 month I wasn’t able to train much at all.. It all started with a bad hamstring injury and I could barely walk the first week. The following 2 weeks I was only able to walk short distances. Then I got my eyes surgery.. 2 weeks of completely training🤣. Yet I went⁣
for cheeky walks ~ still half blind at that time and didn’t recognized friends along the walk lol! ⁣
So surprised.. that month I lost 3KG by doing almost no exersize. For sure I lost muscles, I feel less strong but my body looks quite similar than before (this picture is from today). Only my hips got smaller from not training (great for some modeling jobs lol). I sticked to my healthy diet though. Just saying you won’t get fat by not training for 1 week or a massive food night..😆⁣
BALANCE is the key! Just normal constant training/healthy diet is what works. ⁣
⁣
Now after 1,5 month I am so glad to be able to train 3-4 times a week very light/stretching and 5-10k runs/walks (still hamstring pain but it’s getting better). ⁣
Back to surfing next week in Portugal and trying to build up my normal workouts again🔥⁣
Still motivated to feel my strongest version again!⁣

Back at the beach and surfing from next week on. I will be based in Portugal for the next period (Ericeira/Lisbon) and staying with old friends🌻⁣⁣⁣
Had 4 good months with family and friends back home in Holland but I am so missing my outdoor lifestyle I have had for the last 4 years... ⁣⁣⁣
Will continue my remote marketing and modeling jobs from there. ⁣⁣
The last 2 years I have been living in Australia/Bali (and before South Africa) so haven’t been in EU much at all. Portugal has been on my mind for so long.. to live in and explore. Now is the perfect time to go as I can’t travel back to Bali (was my plan) due covid. But so happy I can go to Portugal for the first time now!
It is going to be interesting, challenging and probably not easy in these weird times but excited for this adventure 🤍⁣

Never stop doing what you love🌻

After my Australian horse story I realized how happy it makes me to be with them outdoors. I wasn’t riding for years and then I started training horses in the outback and more.
After this ride at @natuurpoort_van_loon (recommend this!) with my dutch babes - I picked up getting private riding lessons myself - here back at home during the covid times in Holland.
Soon an new chapter will start for me in Portugal - for sure I will take my gear and passion with me🤍
