Living in Mexico - Week 6 Vlog

It's now week six since I've been here, obviously not in the flat, but just in generally. So I thought I will share some of the experiences I've done. To be honest, generally I've been working a lot and I have been working out, training. As you know, I'm doing my 12 week transformation challenge and I'm actually halfway through it and the results are actually pretty good. i'm very happy um and yeah i'm living in this apartment i love it it's it's very very nice i'm not swimming as much as i should and i want to in the pool so i really need to change that and um you know i've been here for so long and the time is literally just flying i am actually really enjoying mexico more than i ever thought i would i i don't know i just can't believe i'm here and i can't believe how much i love it um you know some friends are messaging me saying if i'm bored or i'm lonely and i generally i don't have time to do anything like i i am so busy i don't have time to be bored or lonely i mean it's mexico there's so much to do here so much to see i'm not even seeing or doing half of the things that i can mainly because i have so many projects going on and they are all super exciting and i have my courses running as well right now and it's all kind of amazing uh but i am planning to you know take more time off like tomorrow i'm actually going to Holbox it's um different island very very excited i'm going there for three days so it's like my mini vacation and uh last week i went to do a traditional mexican uh temazcal a temazcal if i'm saying it right uh experience where you go into a really really hot type of base sauna in darkness complete darkness um and you sing and scream inside there it's it's a bit of a weird one i'm not gonna lie and then you jump into really ice cold cenotes i have recorded the video to share with you um so you'll see it in the next minute or so uh but i just wanted to update you all i'm feeling a lot better mentally i'm not stressed but i am realizing that i have been really stressed in the last two years and just by being here i realized how much more relaxed i am and i still got a really long way to go to reach to that level where i would actually want to be at um you know just more relaxed and chilled and yeah so yeah i just thought i'll do a quick update i'm sorry it's late um but it's better than never i'm gonna just upload the video now for you guys and head to bed and of course update you in the coming weeks hi guys so i have just arrived in this super tiny village and it actually only has 40 people living here so it's like a really small village and um we're doing this full ceremony here today which i decided to do it's like um spiritual healing ceremony with like a mexican type of sauna and then um i don't know what you're gonna do and then uh we're gonna and then we're gonna uh we're gonna have like the traditional dinner which is like chicken and we're gonna jump from hot sauna like i don't think it's like a sauna into the cold cenotes like diving and we're gonna go um but i'll show you everything so guys this is where we're gonna dive cenotes over there underground at night so yeah and this is our local restaurant this is someone's flat where the whole family lives a local rolling pin meat grinder guys this is my first tortilla apparently it's made only with corn and water there is nothing else um the way she makes it looks really easy but the dough is actually super thin and easily breaks apart so it's quite challenging to work with this dough i would say uh we are is somewhere in the middle of a jungle so i'm making what this is a representative of a local culture he's actually mexican he's the only mexican here So, very unique individual, making tortillas and yeah, look this is the final product. There it is. Oh my god, this is my product by the way. It's actually smells really like nice. Guess who made it? This guy made it. Me made it. Is this muy bien? Muy bien. Hala, what do you think about this product? I'm gonna try it. It's very hot, one second. She's eating my food! Sorry, is this yours? Guys, so we just finished the ceremony. I'm not gonna lie, this was nothing I've ever done before. It was definitely quite intense. and it was basically like a stone type of you know sauna and it was in complete darkness so they closed the doors and um they would put like really hot stones in the middle and then put like water on top of there and then they would like sprinkle us with water and stuff like that and we were shouting and singing it was really really weird experience um but also kind of cool um it it was pretty tough it was 40 minutes long and um on the third round of singing i started to feel quite like i was like oh my god i don't think i can handle this because you you can kind of leave if you like clap if you can't like breathe anymore because and i was trying to like convince my brain that i can breathe and then we got sprayed with some some tea or something and then we had to jump into ice cold cenotes and the dark and swim with literally bats upstairs like if you want to say i was out of my comfort zone definitely um now we're going for dinner and yeah um i do have a bit of a headache and uh that was intense anyway i will show you what we're eating i think it's like traditional chicken dish and um yeah very crazy i just i've done so many experiences in my life and I've never done anything like this
