I dag er vi ankommet til Phi Phi hvor vi, indtil på mandag, skal bruge vores dage på det smukke Holiday Inn resort. Jeg gik total snapchat amok da jeg ankom, alt var så smukt og resortet er sindsygt instagram venligt (thank god!) – vandet er det smukkeste og solnedgangen var præcis som på film – er det ikke derfor så mange mennesker tager hertil? Vi er blevet placeret i en beach bungalow som ligger i første række ned til / på stranden, det er vild luksus! Jeg glæder mig til at udforske stedet i morgen, men en lille yoga time eller to skal der også presses ind! Stay tuned for flere updates omkring dette fantastiske sted.
english: Today we have arrived at Phi Phi island where we, until monday, will be spending our days at the beautiful Holiday Inn resort. I went total snapchat crazy when we arrived, everything is so beautiful here and the resort is so instagram friendly (thank god!) – the water is breathtaking and the sunset was excatly like in the movies – isn’t that why so many people come here? We have our own beach bungalow right on the beach, it’s very luxurious – I am very much looking forward to exploring the place tomorrow but a tiny yoga class or two wont hurt nobody! Stay tuned for more updates on this magical place.

Det er SÅ varmt her, i har ingen ide – og mit hår har det ‘super’ med det fugtige klima – afro everywhere. Lidt som da Monica (fra friends) var i Barbados og hendes hår blev gigantisk – det er mig, “it’s the humidity!” men jeg vidste godt det ville ske, bare en smule regnvejr i Danmark kan få mit hår til at slå ud som en oversize paraply. Indtil videre har vi ikke haft så meget sol men egentlig fungere det rigtig godt for billederne og de store regnskyl er sindsygt hyggelige, jeg er også ret vild med at her næsten ingen turister er lige nu – det er en anelse befriende. I morgen tager vi mod Phi Phi! Stay tuned.
english: It is SO hot here, you have no idea! And my hair is really taking in the humidity – afro everywhere. Just like when Monica (from friends) went to Barbados and her hair just got gigantic – thats me, “it’s the humidity!” but I knew this would happen, just a tiny bit of rain in Denmark makes my hair as big as an oversize umbrella. So far we haven’t had much sun but it actually works quite well (picture wise) and the giant rains are just so fascinating! Oh and I love how here is no tourists, it’s kinda liberating. Tomorrow we are headed for Phi Phi – stay tuned!
Så er vi her endelig, mange timers rejse og vi er fremme. Vi havde desværre en forsinkelse så stor i København at vi missede vores fly som ville have gjort at vi var her i mandags men efter nogle timer på hotel i Doha og en lur eller tre er vi nu her på Kata Beach, vores første stop. Selvom himlen er lidt grå så er humøret højt og vi glæder os helt vildt til at udforske og få taget en masse seje billeder, husk i kan følge med på snappen; mariajernov.
english: We are finally here, many hours of traveling and we have arrived. We got so delayed in Copenhagen that we missed our original flight to Phuket, so we had to spend some hours at a hotel in Doha and we just landed this morning, oh well shit happens, we are now at Kata Beach our first stop. Eventhough the sky is a little grey we are just so excited to explore and take a lot of photos, remember you can follow our day on snapchat; mariajernov.

Signe Heindorf clinique in Store Kongensgade, Copenhagen
“Blod, sved og tåre” kan linkes til mange ting her ikke livet og ikke kun til vejen til succes og dette ved du hvis du nogensinde har fået lavet en bikini wax, av. For at være hudløs ærlig (speaking of), så er smerte ikke lige min “ting” og jeg er lidt en tøsetøs så når jeg laver et indlæg som dette er jeg nødt til at virkelig skrive hvad jeg mener fordi hvad vil i ellers få ud af det? Jeg fik en brazillian wax for et par år siden, jeg var lige begyndt at se sex and the city og alle fik dem så jeg ville også! Det gjorde så ondt og var så slemt at jeg selv den dag i dag tager jeg skuldrene op om ørene og nærmest løber forbi klinikkerne. Så hørte jeg om det her “sugaring” og hvordan det “overhovedet ikke gjorde ondt” – og så tænkte jeg at det var tid at prøve igen, særligt nu når der er en ferie lige rundt om hjørnet. Jeg tog hen til Signe Heindorfs klinik i hjertet af København for at prøve lykken og blev mødt af Bianca som skulle hjælpe mig igennem behandlingen. Hun var sød og sjov og gjorde det hele meget mere komfortabelt, der er ærlig talt intet værre end den stille type når du ingen bukser har på. Awkward… Flip flap, ship shap og så var det hele væk, bare sådan. Og jo det gjorde ondt – jeg vil ikke bilde folk ind det slet ikke gør ondt for det gør det MEN det gjorde på ingen måde lige så ondt (og man bliver ikke forbrændt) som når man bliver vokset. Jeg fik lidt olie på og så var jeg good to go – ingen brændende fornemmelse, ingen blod og ingen dårlig oplevelse og det bedste ved det hele er at det nu er 3 dage siden at jeg fik det gjort og der er ingen rødme, ingen knopper eller anden reaktion, det er bare blødt og glat. Tænk engang! Hvis du går og tænker på at få det lavet her til sommer så gør det! Du bliver glad for det og det er den lille smule smerte værd.
english: “Blod, sweat and tears” apply to many things in life, not only success – and you would know this if you have ever had a bikini wax, ouch. To be honest, pain is not my thing, I am a bit of a wimp and when writing a review/comparison like this I must be honest, or else what will you get out of it? I got a brazillian wax a couple of years ago because I just started watching sex and the city and well..everybody got them and I wanted to be apart of the team. It was awful and to this day I still cringe every time I walk by a waxing place. So I suddenly had very big ears when I started to hear about “sugaring” and how it “didn’t hurt at all” – so I decided to try it as preparation for my upcoming vacation. I went to Signe Heindorfs clinique in the heart of Copenhagen and was met by Bianca who was going to get me through this experience. She was sweet and funny and made it all less uncomfortable, there is nothing worse than the silent type when you don’t have your pants on. Awkward… Flip flap, ship shap and the hair was gone, just like that. And yes it hurt – I won’t try telling people it doesn’t because it does hurt BUT not at much as waxing does, because that sh** will scar (and burn) you for life, it did me anyway. I got oiled up and then I was good to go – no burning, no bleeding and no horrible experience and the best part is that it is now 3 days since I got the treatment and there has been no redness, bumps or any other reaction – it’s just smooth! Thank god. If you are thinking about getting it done as a summer treat to yourself I would say do it, it’s worth the little pain and the result is beautiful, you will love it!
Hvordan min håndbaggage er pakket og hvad jeg husker at få med mig ombord er alfa og omega for en god flyvetur! Særligt når det kommer til beauty, jeg skal bruge nogle meget specifikke ting for at overleve lange flyture og her er nogle af mine must haves at have med ombord.
english: How my hand luggage is packed and what I remember to take with my aboard is kinda what makes or breaks the trip for me. Especially when it comes to beauty, I need some very specific items to survive a long flight – so here are my must haves aboard!
1. Hand sanitizer
Oh gosh ew! Everything in the airport and on the plane is ew, so many people touching everything that you touch all the time – I am not usually very focused on germs (my friends would actually call me quite the pig) but at the airport I am suddenly very aware of the amount of people present and therefore also the germs! Dr. Bronner, Hand sanitizer, shop here
2. Dry spots
What is up with these? Why do you suddenly get a dry patch on your face, arm or leg when you are on a plane? Sometimes my chin just dries up like a raisin so I always carry a very heavy cream to get me through these situations. Egyptian Magic, Skin cream, shop here
3. Clean mouth
If you are on a overnight flight it can be nice to brush your teeth in the “morning”, gives you that fresh feeling. Bamboo toothbrush, shop here
4. Care package
Cue tips, nail file and cotton pads – this little package is a life savor! How else are you going to remove mascara dust from under your eyes or fix a broken nail – I usually find these at hotels and bring them with me or I make a little care package from home with the essentials.
5. Sleep tight
Some people just don’t get that when it gets dark in the cabin you should turn your light off too! It’s nap time partner, take a hint! A sleep mask always saves my butt and this one is to die for! Yolke at Fulldisclosureluxe.com, Eyemask, shop here
6. Kiss me quick
Maybe the cabin pressure makes your lips dry or you sit next to a cute guy but whatever the reason a good lip balm is a must, this lavender scented beauty is my forever favorite! Badeanstalten, Lip balm, shop here
7. Dry clean
A greasy scalp can happen to anybody who is in and out of planes and airports so just take this little helper with you and you will be just fine, I promise. Colab, Dry shampoo, shop here
8. Bright eyes
The only makeup I bring with me aboard is a concealer, it can fix anything from tired eyes to a sudden pimple who appeared out of the blue (you know it was that plane food). Nars, Radiant creamy concealer, shop here
9. Hydration central
A good hand creme is great to use after you have sanitized all the germs away! Keep you soft and smooth for the whole flight and it smells great!
Psst.. Karmameju has a whole section on their website for travel size only! Karmameju, Chill hand and bodylotion, shop here
10. Bag it up
Last but certainly not least of course you need a pretty little cabin makeup bag to keep your emergency kit in place. Adax, Makeup clutch, shop here

Endnu en flyvetur er lige om hjørnet, denne gang for Sebastian og jeg. Vi rejser til Thailand på søndag i 10 dage for at tage en masse fede billeder og slikke en masse sol – vi skal for det meste opholde os på Phuket men har også nogle lækre dage at se frem til på smukke Phi Phi. Jeg glæder mig til at dele en masse pakketips, rejsetips, smukke billeder og hotel oplevelser med jer, hvis nogen af jer har været der og der er noget vi bare MÅ gøre, se eller spise så vil jeg elske at høre fra jer!
english: Another flight is around the corner, this time for Sebastian and me. We leave for Thailand on sunday for 10 days! We want to take alot of beautiful photos and soak up the sun – we are going to be located on Phuket most of the time but we also have a few days on Phi Phi to look forward to! I can’t wait to share all my packing tips, travel tips, beautiful photos and hotel experiences with you! If any of you have ever been there and have som tips of what to do, see or eat – I’d love to hear from you!
Stængerne er kommet frem! Man må suge varmen til sig så længe det vare, foråret er altid en besynderlig ting man ved aldrig hvornår det ligepludselig begynder at sne SÅ man skal udnytte man kan have bare ben mens man faktisk kan. Mit nyeste sommer påfund er denne patchwork denim kjole fra Diesel som jeg ærligtalt er ret forelsket i, den er modig på sin helt egen måde og så er jeg vild med de vaske de har blandet, det er de bedste blå nuancer, særligt til lange lyse aftner! I kan forresten finde de forskellige ting via link ovenfor.
english: The legs are out! One has to enjoy the heat while it’s here, spring is a weird time of year, one day you are wearing a tank top and then the next it’s effin snowing! SO get them out as long as you can. My newest summer addition is this beautiful patchwork denim dress from Diesel that I am honestly quite in love with. It’s bold, but in it’s own way and I love the different blues they have used, it just creates such a perfect combo, especially for long summer nights! You can find the products by following the links above!
Sommerstrikken er et lige så stort “go-to” item for mig når solen titter frem som en god denim jakke er for andre – jeg leder altid efter lækre, tynde strikbluser i alverdens farver og denne er min nye favorit. Jeg havde den på 4 ud af 7 dage i sidste uge (noget i måske lagde mærke til på snapchat) og jeg føler mig så godt tilpas i den! Både fordi den ikke er for varm og ikke er for kold men også fordi dens look er lige mig, tilpas gennemsigtig men stadig tilpas klassisk. Bukserne bliver også en sommer favorit kan jeg mærke, de passer til høje og flade sko og så er de nemme “lige at hoppe i” – jeg er fan. Jeg glæder mig til at vise jer flere sommer outfits på bloggen!
english: A summer knit is as big of a “must have” for me during the warmer months as the perfect denim jacket is for others – I am always looking for them in various colors and this one is a new favorite of mine. Last week I wore it 4 out of 7 days (maybe something you noticed on snapchat) and I felt great in it! Both because it’s perfectly warm and perfectly cool but also because it just looks great, it’s kinda see through but in a classy way. I also have a feeling that these pants are gonna be a summer favorite as well, they fit both highs and flats and they are so easy to “hop in” and just wear – I am a big fan! I look forward to showing you more summer outfits soon!
#THEPANDORATOUR I am wearing: Second Female top, 2nd Day culottes, Céline sunglasses, Pandora Jewelry and Adidas sneakers.
Sikke en smuk søndag, solen skinner, det er sindsygt varmt og så har jeg haft fornøjelsen af at være blevet kørt rundt i den fineste pandora cykel af en af mine bedste veninder. Jeg fangede mig selv, flere gange, i at tænke “hvor heldig har man lov at være!” I dag har jeg, sammen med Laura, hyldet mødre, bedstemødre, døtre – i det hele taget bare kvinder og det har været en vidunderlig oplevelse. Vi har kørt rundt i smukke København med en masse seje damer og skabt forvirring og spredt godt humør på vores vej! Tak til alle de dejlige mennesker som mødte op, tak til alle som vinkede til os rundt i København og tak til Pandora for en dejlig dag og et sejt event! Jeg glæder mig over at have fejret mors dag på sådan en smuk måde!
Pssst…der ligger stadig en masse video og billeder på min snapchat – ta et kig @mariajernov OG se også Laura’s historie om eventet her.
english: What a beautiful sunday, the sun is shining, it’s insanely hot and I have had the pleasure of being driven around in the nicest Pandora bike by one of my best friends! I caught my self thinking, multiple times, “how lucky can one be?” Today me and Laura have celebrated mothers, grandmothers, daughters – just amazing women in general and it has been an amazing experience. We have been biking around Copenhagen and created our share of confusion and spread the joy! Thanks to all the wonderful people who showed up, thanks to everyone who waved at us as we drove around Copenhagen and thanks to Pandora for such a nice day and a great event! It has been wonderful celebrating mothers day in such a beautiful manner. Pssst..there is still tons of pictures and video on my snapchat – have a peek @mariajernov AND see Laura’s blogpost about the event here.
