Escape to Langkawi Malaysia

A year ago a friend of mine posted stunning travel pics of white sandy beaches, breathtakingly beautiful sunsets, lush tropical forests, and crystal-clear blue seas she’d taken while visiting Langkawi in Malaysia. It was at that moment I knew I had to add this spot to my bucket list and I’m so glad I did, because my time in Langkawi has been filled with happiness-boosting vitamin D, some much-needed relaxation and experiences of paradise on earth that have left me feeling amazing!

Singapore The Ultimate Itinerary

Day 1
During the winter months in China, I’m always very eager to escape the cold and head to a spot where the sunshine warms my skin. My travel buddy, Rhea, and I decided on a weekend in Singapore before heading to Langkawi, Malaysia.

I’ve wanted to visit Singapore for ages because it’s such a beautiful, charismatic place that’s constantly reinventing itself and improving. The weather is superb all-year-round and despite its urban nature, it’s brimming with wonderfully-maintained green spaces.

So, what is a Health Coach anyway?

For as long as I can remember I have been interested in health and nutrition, so becoming a health coach felt OHHHH-so-right. When I tell people what I do, I sometimes get blank stares and the number one question I get asked is: “What exactly is a health coach?”

If you’ve heard the term “health coach” pop up online or in conversation and aren’t quite sure what a health coach is, let me tell you all the details and why you need one in your life.

Activities in Luang Prabang, Laos

Activities in Luang Prabang, Laos

Luang Prabang is where I fell in love with Laos. This charming town, located in the northern part of Laos, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There is a blend of Lao traditional architecture with European colonial style buildings. The streets are filled with restaurants, shops, and temples.

After a quick 55-minute flight from Vientiane, we arrived in Luang Prabang. My friends and I had such a great experience using Lao Airlines. I highly recommend Lao Airlines for your travels within Asia. Most accommodations are found in the downtown area. However, we opted for a private villa using Airbnb along the Mekong River just outside of town. If you are a solo traveler, I would recommend staying in town where you have easy access to everything.

Vientiane, Laos

Laos is one of those countries that has been on my travel bucket list for a while. When I found out my bestie Lauren and her husband Carlos were moving to Laos; I knew I had to visit. Initially, I thought traveling to Vientiane, Laos from Shanghai, China would be super easy. However, there is no direct flight to Laos from China. My first leg was a red-eye from the Hongqiao International Airport in Shanghai to Kunming Changshui International Airport in China. After a long night of sleeping on the floor in the Kunming Airport, I caught my next flight to Vientiane.

Five Steps For Showing Up For Your Workouts

This morning I woke up in Luang Prabang, Laos feeling a bit unmotivated to exercise. I was coming off a six week back injury, and my initial thought was to stay in my warm, cozy bed and skip my workout. Instead, I threw on my running shoes and headed out for a 6K run. I never have regrets for showing up for a workout. The endorphins after always remind me why I love moving my body.

Wondering how you can show up for your workouts???

Soul Travel Fitness has officially launched!!! I'm over here in Asia doing my happy dance and celebrating!! So how in the world did this all begin anyways??? Since as long as I can remember I've been obsessed with health + fitness. I love feeling strong, confident, healthy, and active. Being healthy is not about the body looking a certain way, but how your body moves, and eating foods that nourish you. I move my body because it feels good. I believe the goal is not a number on the scale, but that you feel beautiful in your skin.
