BOARDWALK HOTEL ARUBA

In a sea of big resorts, Boardwalk Hotel Aruba is one the most refreshing, cozy, private and charming hotels to stay at on the Island of Aruba. Boardwalk may not be the largest hotel on the island. But what it lacks in size, it certainly makes up for it with impeccable service and personalized attention. This boutique style hotel is a hidden gem on the island of Aruba. Perfect for honey mooners, couples, and families. If you’re goal is to disconnect from the world then this is the place. They’re located in Noord, at the end of the high rise strip, close to fishermen’s hut beach where you can sunbath or practice windsurfing or kite surfing. What other way is there to relax on a tropical island than swinging peacefully on a hammock? Luckly every single casita has a hammock. The hotel pool is surrounded by lush tropical plants and flowers and the water temperature is always just right. The casitas come fully equipped with comfy beds, hot water and a complete kitchen just in …

NEW WALLET – OGON DESIGNS

So.. Actually, when I saw this wallet or card case, whatever you wanna call it, I thought it was a practical and modern approach to the average, normal wallet. I’m a guy that likes to keep just the essentials in my wallet, you know? I avoid having my wallet filled with papers and stuff, it is uncomfortable to carry it in the pocket and it also looks not so good when is too fat. Anyways, I have a very expensive wallet from a very well known french brand, I love my wallet but in order to blog about Ogon, I decided I will use it for a week to get a feel of it and I could tell  what it feels to have one from experience, real experience. First, I would like to say it’s been over three weeks and I’m still using my Ogon Card Case. Why? It is comfortable, everything is on display so you can find whatever you are looking for just opening it, I even keep in the memory cards I use …

GYM CHALLENGE – EVL NUTRITION

So, I was approached by EVL Nutrition to collaborate and feature them, I decided to do something more than just post a picture with my new products, I had the bright idea of doing a 2-month experiment. I asked EVL Nutrition to send me products for me to take during the next 8 weeks and see how good they work on me. I usually take my protein shake and that’s it but for this blog post we went all the way and added a Pre-Workout engine, a Recovery product, the Lean BCAA, and Stacked Protein. So… here a few pictures of how I look now, not my best pictures, but you can see my body. I started taking these products a week ago and I am training 4 days a week. I am taking the Lean BCAA early in the morning when I wake up, then I take the pre workout 30min before I go to the gym, then right after my dumbbell sets, I take two scoops of the protein and before I go to …

SUMMER SHORTS | Boardies

Swim shorts by Boardies Apparel, sunglasses by Le Specs and Albert Kerbs. Location: Renaissance Island. Photographer: Isaiah Stomp. ____________________________________________________________ So… Boardies, these are really short shorts, they do have longer versions, but the ones I’m sporting here are really short. You know me, I love short shorts, they’re more fun. All their designs are cool, there’s no dull short. The “Living The Dream” short I’m sporting (yellow ith black lettering) has to be my favorite from them. They quick dry which is always important for me, they’re affordable, the price range goes from 45 to 50 British pounds. They have short shorts, mid-length and a longer version and too many prints, you have to visit their page. Why should you buy a pair? Because of their designs, their patterns, colors, they’re fun and whimsical, to me, that’s how a short should be… and they photograph beautifully.

Paul Evans NY High-top Sneakers, Mango Jeans, Brathwait watch and my Voss water. _________________________________________________________________ They say love at first sight is an overrated term, but when I first saw these sneakers… bang! I was browsing the Paul Evans website and I got fixated with these sneakers. The Legend high-top sneaker, that’s their full name,  they’re made from the finest Italian calfskin leather with extra padding for exceptional comfort. When they sent me the pair, I asked for a 12, I was afraid they woulnd’t fit, I always have this problem, I ask for a 12 and then it is too small, then I’m stuck with a pair of tight shoes that I can only wear once, cry and then never again. Not the case with Paul Evans, they run true to size. I ordered them Friday, Tuesday they were here in Aruba. They ship worldwide and if by any chance, that I doubt, they don’t fit they have an awesome return policy. You can get them in Blue and black. I am a Marrone guy, I love brown. Make …
