0:00:06.960 --> 0:00:09.520
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to have both, like relaxing time, but since

0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I was going with like a group of friends, I

0:00:11.560 --> 0:00:15.640
<v Speaker 1>wanted to have some fun. So I'm very happy to

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:18.079
<v Speaker 1>say that despite that there were so many of us,

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:23.239
<v Speaker 1>the trip was drama free, psich. We had like quiet time.

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.120
<v Speaker 1>We had our little teas in the morning, we were chilling.

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>It was like perfect because we had party, we had

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:30.640
<v Speaker 1>friend time, we had alone time.

0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:38.240
<v Speaker 2>It was nice.

0:00:38.920 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>What up y'all and happy Monday. I hope you all

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 1>are having a great summer so far, especially my fellow cancers.

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of cancers, I'm a cancer. I'm actually a jum cancer.

0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:50.920
<v Speaker 1>So my birthday was just a couple of weeks ago,

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 1>and guys, I spent it in Greece.

0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:54.840
<v Speaker 2>I had the best.

0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Time, and I can't wait to tell you guys all

0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:59.120
<v Speaker 1>about it on today's episode. So let's get to it.

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>This is cheek and chill. Every year I try to

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:11.480
<v Speaker 1>take a really memorable birthday trip. Last year I went

0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:14.440
<v Speaker 1>to the Dominican Republic with some friends. And this year

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to spend my thirty eighth birthday, Yes thirty eight,

0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:19.200
<v Speaker 1>you guys, I know, you can't believe it in Greece.

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I had been to Greece before, but to Athens, and

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to do, you know, either Santorini or Mykonos,

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted to do both, but I didn't have

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:33.039
<v Speaker 1>enough time because I had to come back because I

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.840
<v Speaker 1>got to work, you know. So we decided on Miconos

0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:40.560
<v Speaker 1>because it's almost like Vegas, Las Vegas of like Greece.

0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 2>And it is definitely a party town.

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:45.679
<v Speaker 1>And I wanted to have both like relaxing time, but

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:47.960
<v Speaker 1>also since I was going with like a group of friends,

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to have some fun, you know. And then

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I had taken like a rest from alcohol and you know, marijuana,

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>you guys, it is as you know, I'm from California,

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 1>so it is legoing can So I was taking a

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>huge break, and I did it for my birthday so

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I could just like really enjoy myself. So I really

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 1>wanted to like kind of party a little bit. So

0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:12.920
<v Speaker 1>I was already like mentally prepared to have fun. And

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 1>let me tell you, guys, I had so much fun.

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe a little bit too much fun, because now I'm

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 1>feeling it. The jet lag is real, y'all. It is

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>freaking real. So anyways, I am a procrastinator when it

0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>comes to packing.

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 2>I pack last minute travel vacation.

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I either pack of the day i'm leaving, like early

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:31.040
<v Speaker 1>in the morning.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what I do.

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Because I was about to say maybe the night before,

0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I like maybe pre pack or prepare a little bit,

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>but no, I'm a packer like the day of.

0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:42.919
<v Speaker 2>And I'm a heavy packer.

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I guess you could say I'm high maintenance because I

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:48.119
<v Speaker 1>take you know, I need my hair stuff, I need

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.480
<v Speaker 1>my skincare, I need my body stuff. I need like

0:02:50.600 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 1>extra stuff just in case you never know what will happen.

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:54.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:56.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, if I'm going to be there for eight days,

0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you better believe I'm gonna take fourteen pairs of underwear

0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:01.680
<v Speaker 1>because you just know you can poop on yourself or

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe your friend needs an underwear. So I always take

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 1>extra everything. And I told myself this time, I'm not

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.160
<v Speaker 1>going to overpack. I'm only gonna take what I need.

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:11.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna try on all my clothes and my outfits,

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm only going to take the amount of clothes

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>that I would need per day. And then I was

0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:19.320
<v Speaker 1>packing and all the outfits were so cute that I

0:03:19.360 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, I take this one too, this one

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 1>just in case, you guys, Just for myself, I took

0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, I took two large suitcases and a

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 1>carry on and a big ass bag and I even

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>got some space on Emilios. I was like, can you

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 1>take an extra like suitcase? So yeah, I am definitely

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>like a heavy packer. And I was only there for okay.

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 1>We left the twenty fourth of June and we didn't

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 1>get to Greece until the twenty fifth, because I mean,

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.000
<v Speaker 1>it's a long ass flat, you guys. So I was

0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:56.880
<v Speaker 1>there the twenty fifth, the twenty sixth, twenty seventh or

0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty six is my birthday, twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine.

0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 1>We came back on the thirtieth and then landed in

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:07.360
<v Speaker 1>La on the first. It was crazy, and my friend,

0:04:07.680 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 1>one of my really good friends, who had just gone

0:04:09.240 --> 0:04:11.600
<v Speaker 1>to Greece. I asked her for some tips because I

0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.480
<v Speaker 1>was like, you know, I don't want to be jet lagged.

0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I have a show on the second July second it's

0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:17.279
<v Speaker 1>my mom's birthday. I was like, can I have a show?

0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>And I cannot be tired? And the crazy thing is

0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 1>I was totally fine. We landed pretty early on July first,

0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.640
<v Speaker 1>and it was like around one. By the time we

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 1>got home, it was four and all I did was sleep.

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>I got home and I was like, I need a

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:34.240
<v Speaker 1>sleep because I have a show the next day.

0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Or tomorrow, and I was fine.

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it just I'm barely feeling it now, like

0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.680
<v Speaker 1>they say that jet lag like takes like two or

0:04:41.680 --> 0:04:43.279
<v Speaker 1>three days for you to fill it when you're back home,

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 1>and definitely I'm feeling it, but I'm happy because I

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.119
<v Speaker 1>got home. We celebrated my mom's birthday on the second.

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.400
<v Speaker 1>All my siblings were there at my concert. It was

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.440
<v Speaker 1>so awesome. And then on the third, my siblings did

0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:57.960
<v Speaker 1>like this little like surprise birthday party. Well not really surprised.

0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.120
<v Speaker 1>I knew that they were going to do something. I

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>just didn't know what. But when I got home, because

0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Emilio was like polted, like take me away for the day.

0:05:05.240 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>So we left the house and then when we got back,

0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:11.360
<v Speaker 1>everything was like decorated and Jenica was cooking because I

0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 1>love when she cooks for me, like it's my favorite.

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.120
<v Speaker 1>She made me some like green and chila las with

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:20.440
<v Speaker 1>you know aros Rojo, red Rice and my siblings were

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:21.719
<v Speaker 1>here and the kids were here and they got in

0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:23.240
<v Speaker 1>the pool and it was just so beautiful.

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 2>And then the next day it was July fourth, and we.

0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Partied and I partied really hard, so I think that's

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.880
<v Speaker 1>why now my body's filling it. But anyways, back to

0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Greece and Mikonos okay, so I went with It was

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>a total of ten of us. So it was Vanessa,

0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 1>Michael Madre, and business partner Rose, who used to be

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 1>my manager back in the days when I first kind

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 1>of started my career. One of our really good friends,

0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:50.480
<v Speaker 1>his name is Antonio. I don't know if you guys

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>have ever heard of the Estrato twins, but they are

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:57.840
<v Speaker 1>amazing designers. So one of the brothers, Antonio, went with us. Helen,

0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:00.000
<v Speaker 1>my friend Helen, who was also a singer we've had

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 1>here on the podcast before. Her husband Brianna and her husband,

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.800
<v Speaker 1>they were actually celebrating ten years of marriage, you guys,

0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>so it was their first time in Greece as well.

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 1>So they went for their wedding anniversary which was on

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:15.160
<v Speaker 1>June twenty ninth, so they were celebrating ten years. So

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>we were celebrating a lot, and then Helen and JP

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>they stayed and went to like I think Madrid. I

0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:23.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know where else they went. So a few of

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>them stayed, Vanessa stayed, a bunch of people stayed behind.

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 2>I had to come back and work. Oh in Oscar

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:29.359
<v Speaker 2>from nilos por la muska.

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>If you guys don't know, it's like an organization in

0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Riverside and yeah, so I think that was it. I

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 1>was not expecting you guys to completely disconnect. I had

0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:42.720
<v Speaker 1>told even my manager, mister Bowle. Richard Bull was like,

0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 1>don't worry, go ahead and send me a message, email me.

0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll be on my phone here and there. I'm not

0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>going to be on as much, but I will be on.

0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.520
<v Speaker 1>But no, it didn't work out like that. The time

0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 1>zone was so different obviously, so I think we're like,

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 1>what ten hours ahead over there? We were ten hours ahead.

0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I just said fit. I was like, you know what,

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 1>my phone went black. I was like, I'm going to

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:05.800
<v Speaker 1>leave it alone. By the end of the trip, you guys,

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I had over three hundred messages and like a thousand emails.

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:13.840
<v Speaker 1>It was insane. I was so overwhelmed. But I needed

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>to just be I just needed to be. We got

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>an airbnb and it was a beautiful big house. What

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 1>I love about Mikonos, you guys, is that everything is

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.720
<v Speaker 1>so close. I mean, you're on an island. Everything is

0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>pretty much walking distance. But I mean, of course we

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>took like shuttles everywhere. But it was so cool. The

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 1>food was amazing. The sunsets and the sunrises were great.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.640
<v Speaker 1>I meditated every day when I was out there. It

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 1>was just so nice and everyone had their own room

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:43.960
<v Speaker 1>and we had our own.

0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:45.800
<v Speaker 2>Space, and the pool was really nice.

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:48.120
<v Speaker 1>And I loved it because I even, you guys, I'm

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 1>not a huge runner, Like I don't really like to

0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.920
<v Speaker 1>run like at all actually or like jog but Emilio

0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:55.600
<v Speaker 1>and I took two jogs out there. I was like, okay,

0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I feel like I want to go run.

0:07:57.160 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 1>So it's like I feel like Mykonos made me want

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>to become like a jogger.

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 2>It's really weird, but I really enjoyed it.

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like in my little sports bra the sun,

0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:09.240
<v Speaker 1>like I got a little bit of a tan. You

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 1>can't really tell because I'm really like fair, but I

0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>got a little tan, and I don't know. It was

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>really nice and Gomtandrico. You guys, like the food is Mediterranean,

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:23.160
<v Speaker 1>so there's like a lot of yogurts and tomato and

0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.440
<v Speaker 1>goat cheese and it was just so delicious and the chicken.

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 1>Everything was just so good. When I went to the

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>American Republic, we had like a chef and that was awesome.

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.440
<v Speaker 1>The service was great. But this time we only had

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:37.160
<v Speaker 1>like a chef. I think the day of my birthday,

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:39.800
<v Speaker 1>on the twenty six, we had them make like a

0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 1>little bit of breakfast and then after that we would

0:08:41.600 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 1>just go out on the town and you know, have

0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:47.560
<v Speaker 1>lunch and have dinner and it was chill. We went

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.040
<v Speaker 1>to the grocery store. Of course, I went crazy and

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.360
<v Speaker 1>got all kinds of things and I cooked a little

0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:52.880
<v Speaker 1>bit out there.

0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I did.

0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I felt like for me in order to feel like

0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>on vacation. It's weird because like Vanessa said, what are

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you doing, Like why are you cooking? I'm like, it

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.440
<v Speaker 1>makes me feel good, like I want to feel like

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm at home. Like the only thing was I didn't

0:09:06.400 --> 0:09:08.320
<v Speaker 1>have all my spices. I just I had to work

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.959
<v Speaker 1>with pepper and salt. But I made it work and

0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 1>I made everyone like you know, pasta and then I

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 1>made burgers and what else did I make? I made

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 1>eggs one day, like you know, with turkey, some like

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:22.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, eggs, sangwiches. I don't know, it just I'm

0:09:22.200 --> 0:09:23.960
<v Speaker 1>on vacation and I want to cook, like I just

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I feel it made me feel good

0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>this time because in Dominican Republic, I was like, okay, yeah,

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>I want you know, they come and they would bring

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:32.560
<v Speaker 1>us out like little fruit plates while we were at

0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>the pool, and we didn't have that. But I didn't

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.600
<v Speaker 1>miss it either. It was like it was different. It

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.480
<v Speaker 1>was just this vacation was just different. And I don't

0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:41.280
<v Speaker 1>know if it was because like I said, we were

0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:43.960
<v Speaker 1>ten hours ahead over there that it was just so

0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.200
<v Speaker 1>weird for me to get on Instagram and do my

0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:49.319
<v Speaker 1>god mornings. I just felt like very I guess out

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>of my element in a way, you know, And I

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:55.160
<v Speaker 1>was like I couldn't like I couldn't find myself. So

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you know, I'm just going to stay off.

0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.439
<v Speaker 1>But then you stay off and it's great while you're there,

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and then you come and you're like, oh my god.

0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 1>I felt so like backed up with everything, but then

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 1>I had to remind myself.

0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:07.079
<v Speaker 2>I was like, just breathe.

0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I had to tell myself a lot of times out there,

0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:11.280
<v Speaker 1>you guys, well, I was meditating and it helped me

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.200
<v Speaker 1>so much that I was meditating and taking that time

0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 1>in the morning before I went and partied to just

0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>like breathe and remind myself everything can wait. If I

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.920
<v Speaker 1>don't have my phone right now, it's okay. If it's

0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:28.200
<v Speaker 1>an emergency, God forbid. I just would pray for my siblings,

0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 1>for their children, for everyone. I was like, I put

0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>them in your hands God, And I was like, if

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 1>they need me, they'll reach out to either to any

0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:39.200
<v Speaker 1>of us, to Emilio, you know. Like I had to

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 1>really work on just completely disconnecting, and I'm glad I did.

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:46.119
<v Speaker 2>And I had fun.

0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:55.480
<v Speaker 1>For my birthday. We went to this really cool, like

0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 1>low key bar. There was no one in there. We

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:03.840
<v Speaker 1>were like looking through like the whole little town, like

0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:07.040
<v Speaker 1>where are we gonna go? And we found this really small,

0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>chill ass bar. No one was in there. We got

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>some hookah and that's how I burned my finger with

0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 1>the hookah. Oh my god, I don't know what I

0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.480
<v Speaker 1>was doing. I don't know how my finger. Oh it

0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:21.600
<v Speaker 1>was like half a second and it burned. It hurts

0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 1>so bad. It still hurts. But anyways, that night was

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 1>so freaking fun. We danced all damn night. I don't

0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 1>Emilio dance. We were all having a great time. The

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 1>music was fabulous. I even tipped the DJ. He was

0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:35.920
<v Speaker 1>so damn good. But it was like the crazy part

0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 1>is like it wasn't like a place that was super

0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:40.520
<v Speaker 1>packed or like super happening. It was just the place

0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 1>that we needed to be. It was so magical. That

0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.679
<v Speaker 1>was one of my favorite nights. And you know, despite

0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 1>the fact that there were so many of us, I

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>can proudly and happily say that it was.

0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Drama free psych.

0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.800
<v Speaker 1>When there are so many people, of course they're gonna

0:11:58.840 --> 0:12:02.080
<v Speaker 1>be like little disagreement or little things, and especially when

0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:04.720
<v Speaker 1>there's alcohol involved. You guys, and I'm not gonna say names,

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:12.640
<v Speaker 1>but there was a little bit of maybe discomfort between

0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:15.960
<v Speaker 1>two people. It was fine when we first got there,

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and then one of the people, I'm gonna say a

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 1>guy or a girl had too much to drink and

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:23.680
<v Speaker 1>they were being a little bit too touchy and someone

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:28.400
<v Speaker 1>else didn't like it. So it you know, but two

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 1>days later the other person apologized and everything's fine now.

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:37.400
<v Speaker 1>But I was just I'm like, okay, what is happening here?

0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.839
<v Speaker 1>But everything I think was pretty chill for the most part.

0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:44.520
<v Speaker 1>And then Emilio and I, I'm trying to think, did

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 1>we argue? Oh my god, yes, okay, you guys, so

0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:48.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be honest. Okay, Emilio and I argued once

0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.840
<v Speaker 1>the entire trip. Okay, we argued because my crazy little

0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 1>buzzedass felt that he was too nice to the waitress

0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>at the hookah bar, you know, because she was really

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 1>sweet and she was very pretty. The girls there, Oh

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 1>my god, let me tell you, guys, the people that

0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 1>are very beautiful, respectfully, the women and the men muypatasilo,

0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:10.760
<v Speaker 1>mui wappos mu moherez like very beautiful people. So the

0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>girl that was helping us at the hookah bar, she

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>was cute, she was very nice, very friendly, you know,

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 1>she was sert like being really really like attentive with everyone.

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:21.959
<v Speaker 1>So we were leaving and Emilio I felt like Emilia

0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:24.200
<v Speaker 1>went like way at his way to say bye, like

0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:25.680
<v Speaker 1>he turned around and everything.

0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:26.839
<v Speaker 2>We were already leaving, and I was.

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Like, okay, like he was like bye, like I'm like, okay, okay,

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm like and I'm not gonna lie. I was like

0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 1>was that necessary? Was that really necessary? And we kind

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.560
<v Speaker 1>of got in like a little you know argument.

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:39.520
<v Speaker 2>He's like, what are you talking about?

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I was just and he's just very nice and polite,

0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 1>you guys, and usually I don't get like that. But

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it was just I hadn't drank in a while, okay,

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 1>in my defense, and you know, I was like, hmm,

0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 1>and she's cute, you know, but it's okay.

0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:56.040
<v Speaker 2>He just you know, he apologized, although.

0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:59.599
<v Speaker 1>You know, between you and I, I don't feel like

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:01.640
<v Speaker 1>he needed to really apologize because I think I was

0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:03.600
<v Speaker 1>just being silly, you know, and I think it was

0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.240
<v Speaker 1>just the alcohol because then after I was like the

0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 1>next morning, I'm like, Emelia, I'm so sorry, Like that's

0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:09.160
<v Speaker 1>just so dumb, like I don't know why, you know

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 1>what happened. And he's like, no, it's okay. I understand.

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.679
<v Speaker 1>He was really understanding and let me just have my moment.

0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:16.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't like to be like a jealous girl. I

0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:18.440
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be that type of girl, Like, even

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 1>if there are beautiful girls like, I don't want to

0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:23.360
<v Speaker 1>be that girl where I'm just like se Losa and

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:24.880
<v Speaker 1>like I don't want him to feel like he's walking

0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:26.480
<v Speaker 1>on eggshells. Like and I don't want to feel that

0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>way either, you know, because I'm friendly, you know, and

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 1>I say hello and like, you know, but I just

0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:33.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Like now that I think about it,

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>like it was just kind of like a little bit

0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:36.440
<v Speaker 1>too much, you.

0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Know, I'm like, okay, we're already leaving. But anyways, I

0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 2>got over it. We were fine.

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:45.120
<v Speaker 1>It was a little just a little argument, nothing crazy,

0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>but that was it didn't last too long.

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 2>We were just we got over it. We're like, okay,

0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 2>let's talk it out. And that was that.

0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:52.800
<v Speaker 1>The good thing is that we were all kind of

0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>like on the same page. Like the couples. We had

0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 1>a day where we were like, okay, let's just go

0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:00.680
<v Speaker 1>do a couple things and go eat and just have

0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:02.520
<v Speaker 1>more of like a chill time because I didn't want

0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 1>to party every single day too hard.

0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I needed a break in between.

0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.160
<v Speaker 1>And everyone just kind of did their thing, and it

0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:11.040
<v Speaker 1>was like That's what I like about my friendships.

0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 2>We're very mature and.

0:15:12.960 --> 0:15:15.200
<v Speaker 1>We're transparent and we're like, look, I don't feel like

0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 1>doing that y'all go ahead and no one gets hurt,

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, And that's what I liked. You have to

0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.120
<v Speaker 1>be really careful with the people that you travel with,

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.560
<v Speaker 1>like you have to know who you're traveling with. And

0:15:24.600 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I feel like everyone everything was cool, like there was

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 1>no pressure, no one felt left out, no one felt like.

0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it was good, you know what I mean.

0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.280
<v Speaker 1>And I think the amount of days together was enough,

0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, because maybe a few more days we probably

0:15:37.320 --> 0:15:38.880
<v Speaker 1>would have just choked each other out or something.

0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:46.360
<v Speaker 1>AnyWho, the night life in Mikono's amazing. You guys so

0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:49.600
<v Speaker 1>much fun. The bars are so cool. Like I didn't

0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 1>stay out till five in the morning. Some of my

0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 1>friends did, I did it. I honestly can't hang I

0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:56.560
<v Speaker 1>think I probably the latest I stayed up was like

0:15:56.680 --> 0:16:00.000
<v Speaker 1>three o'clock. Max, I was already kind of like by

0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.120
<v Speaker 1>or two. I'm like, I want to go lay down.

0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to like not wake up early tomorrow

0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:06.880
<v Speaker 1>because I want to see I wanted.

0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:08.800
<v Speaker 2>To like lay out in tan and enjoy.

0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And one of the mornings, Emilio and I everyone was

0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:13.840
<v Speaker 1>asleep because they stayed up till like really late. I

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:15.880
<v Speaker 1>think him and I were by the pool. We woke

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 1>up around I don't know, like nine am, and we

0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:23.920
<v Speaker 1>were out by the pool alone, just him and I

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.240
<v Speaker 1>till like two pm, till everyone woke up. And it

0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:28.640
<v Speaker 1>was nice because we had like quiet time. We had

0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:31.840
<v Speaker 1>our little teas in the morning, we were chilling, took

0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:34.920
<v Speaker 1>a nap. It was like perfect because we had party,

0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.240
<v Speaker 1>we had friend time, we had alone time.

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:41.280
<v Speaker 2>It was nice. It was just something.

0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:44.680
<v Speaker 1>I hadn't really like. I didn't know what it was

0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:47.720
<v Speaker 1>going to be like, but it was perfect. It was

0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of everything. Oh and then we went

0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:54.120
<v Speaker 1>on a yacht the day of Brianna and Rob's anniversary,

0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.680
<v Speaker 1>which was the twenty ninth. I got a yacht for us,

0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, you know what, she had never

0:16:57.920 --> 0:16:59.400
<v Speaker 1>been on a yacht, and I wanted her to like

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.800
<v Speaker 1>enjoy It was like my birthday trip, but I wanted

0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.320
<v Speaker 1>her to enjoy her anniversary because I feel like ten

0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:07.280
<v Speaker 1>years of marriage, that's a huge accomplishment, you guys. And

0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:09.640
<v Speaker 1>they're young, they're a young couple. They have three young,

0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:12.480
<v Speaker 1>beautiful little boys, one of them is my godson. And

0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I just want her to enjoy, you

0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:17.639
<v Speaker 1>know and oh my god to see her just so

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.720
<v Speaker 1>happy and so free. She kept saying, She's like, oh

0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 1>my god, I never want to leave. She's like, I

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.480
<v Speaker 1>missed my boys. I love them. But she felt like

0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I think like herself again, you know, like she's been

0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 1>in mom mode and wife mode, which is great, but

0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:32.040
<v Speaker 1>I think she came back to like herself. And we

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:34.400
<v Speaker 1>were on the yacht and we got in the ocean

0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:38.000
<v Speaker 1>and it was freaking The water was so clear. I

0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.359
<v Speaker 1>thought the most beautiful water I've ever seen was in

0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Boro Kai when we went to the Philippines, but I

0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:46.800
<v Speaker 1>think this, like it was just so much nicer. El

0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Maristaa Ramoso. It was so nice and cold. It was

0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.160
<v Speaker 1>like a cold plunge and it was nice. I only

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 1>got in it once. I was like, I'm going to

0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:55.359
<v Speaker 1>get in because then I start thinking of like what's

0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:56.960
<v Speaker 1>under me, and I just I get in my head.

0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, Okay, I'm going to get in for

0:17:58.080 --> 0:17:59.680
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. I want to touch the waters here

0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:01.320
<v Speaker 1>in great and then I'm gonna get back on the

0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:01.800
<v Speaker 1>damn yacht.

0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:03.480
<v Speaker 2>But it was fun.

0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:07.040
<v Speaker 1>We had a great time and she was like so happy.

0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:09.600
<v Speaker 1>So we did a little bit of everything, I'm telling you, like,

0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:13.200
<v Speaker 1>the only thing that I was thinking was I feel

0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:16.159
<v Speaker 1>like we didn't enjoy the house as much as I

0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 1>wish we would have, you know what I mean, because

0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:20.439
<v Speaker 1>we paid I feel like a lot of money to

0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:22.960
<v Speaker 1>stay there, although it worked out because we split it

0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:26.359
<v Speaker 1>amongst all of us. But I felt like maybe one

0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:28.480
<v Speaker 1>or two more days I would have been it would

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.040
<v Speaker 1>have been perfect, but I had to come back and work,

0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:33.719
<v Speaker 1>which is fine. I wanted to celebrate my mother. But

0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that's the only thing other than that it was. It

0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:46.639
<v Speaker 1>was freaking It was freaking amazing. So one of my

0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:51.159
<v Speaker 1>favorite memories of the entire trip was it was our

0:18:51.240 --> 0:18:53.960
<v Speaker 1>last night and I told everyone else, like, I don't

0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:58.200
<v Speaker 1>necessarily want to go out and like freaking get like plastered,

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 1>because again I have to go do a show. But

0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:02.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, let's do a nice dinner. I want

0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>us all to wear white. I wanted to take them

0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:07.399
<v Speaker 1>out to dinner because I was so grateful that everyone

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:11.440
<v Speaker 1>took the time to go so far to celebrate my birthday,

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:12.760
<v Speaker 1>you know. So I was like, now I want to

0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:15.520
<v Speaker 1>give back to you guys. So I think what we

0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.320
<v Speaker 1>did the yacht, that's the day of the yacht. We

0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:20.600
<v Speaker 1>did the yacht during the day and then got back

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:22.879
<v Speaker 1>to the house and rested a little bit, and then

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I was like, okay, let's do a nice dinner. And

0:19:25.119 --> 0:19:28.000
<v Speaker 1>after dinner, everyone's like, okay, should we go out. I'm like, honestly,

0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:30.040
<v Speaker 1>like I really don't feel like going out. Let's just

0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:33.479
<v Speaker 1>go back to the house. And we all sat like

0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:36.719
<v Speaker 1>by the pool and we were just talking and just

0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:39.760
<v Speaker 1>it was so cool because I was like, okay, guys,

0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I started off the questions. You know, I was like, Okay,

0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:45.280
<v Speaker 1>if God were to come down right now and tell

0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:48.040
<v Speaker 1>you X, Y or Z, and I don't necessarily want

0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:50.359
<v Speaker 1>to get into the details of like the questions I asked.

0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:53.280
<v Speaker 1>We all were going around the table and just asking questions,

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:55.880
<v Speaker 1>just random questions, you know, just getting to know each

0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 1>other a little bit more. And that's how you kind

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.040
<v Speaker 1>of start like picking at each other's brain and like

0:20:01.119 --> 0:20:03.920
<v Speaker 1>you get to know people you know. And I'm glad

0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:05.320
<v Speaker 1>that we did that because we were there I think

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 1>till like maybe I don't know, two in the morning,

0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:11.159
<v Speaker 1>just talking and being silly and laughing, and it was

0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:13.560
<v Speaker 1>like the perfect way to like close out the trip

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.760
<v Speaker 1>because some of them, like rose Antonio Vanessa. They left

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:18.399
<v Speaker 1>to like Abisa, I think, or they were going to

0:20:18.400 --> 0:20:20.680
<v Speaker 1>a Madrid, so they were going to leave early in

0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the morning. I wasn't going to see them in the morning.

0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Then the next day we were able to wake up

0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:26.800
<v Speaker 1>a little bit later and get ready because our checkout

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:29.199
<v Speaker 1>time was like at twelve, and then we had our

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:32.080
<v Speaker 1>last lunch there. The rest of us did a little

0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:34.959
<v Speaker 1>bit of shopping, which, you guys, what I love the

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:37.920
<v Speaker 1>most was that I was able to buy brand name

0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:39.560
<v Speaker 1>stuff over there because I haven't in a long time.

0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I had told myself, I was like, I'm not going

0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:43.919
<v Speaker 1>to spend my money on all this brand name stuff

0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:46.720
<v Speaker 1>because it's just you know, I'm like, I'm not there.

0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:49.399
<v Speaker 2>But it was like tax free, you guys.

0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:51.199
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, Okay, I felt a little bit

0:20:51.200 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>better about my purchase because then I went to the

0:20:54.680 --> 0:20:56.960
<v Speaker 1>airport and then you give them like this form and

0:20:56.960 --> 0:20:58.480
<v Speaker 1>then they give you money back. So I was like,

0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:00.560
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, okay, it was a good It was

0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.639
<v Speaker 1>like my birthday gift to myself, so that was cool.

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:06.399
<v Speaker 1>And then we went to the airport and yeah, that

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:08.640
<v Speaker 1>was I feel like the way back, I wasn't able

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to sleep on the way there because it was like

0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:14.560
<v Speaker 1>a fourteen hour trip total. On the way back, we

0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:18.119
<v Speaker 1>had like a thirteen hour layover in London. I had

0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:20.720
<v Speaker 1>never been to London and we were there for thirteen hours.

0:21:20.720 --> 0:21:22.920
<v Speaker 1>We just got there at night, went to go eat,

0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:25.320
<v Speaker 1>went to a hotel, fell asleep, and.

0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:27.280
<v Speaker 2>It was a little bit like, I don't know.

0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what I think messed me up because

0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't able to sleep on the longer flight, which

0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:35.160
<v Speaker 1>is ten hours from London to la I wasn't able

0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:36.560
<v Speaker 1>to sleep, and I was like, Okay, I'm going to

0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:38.760
<v Speaker 1>keep myself up and then when I get home, hopefully

0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:40.959
<v Speaker 1>I can like really sleep throughout the night and get

0:21:41.000 --> 0:21:41.640
<v Speaker 1>a good night's rest.

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:42.199
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know.

0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 1>I thought I was going to be completely fine, but

0:21:45.520 --> 0:21:48.520
<v Speaker 1>now I'm feeling it. Like I said, the jetlag is real. AnyWho,

0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:53.120
<v Speaker 1>I would definitely go back. I want to go back.

0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Actually I thought we were going to be able to

0:21:56.040 --> 0:22:00.400
<v Speaker 1>go on the ferry to Santorini, but people that had

0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 1>been said, you know what, it's not really worth it.

0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Just maybe when we go back to Greece, take a

0:22:08.000 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 1>few more days to be there. It's more of like

0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 1>more mellow. I guess in Santorini and Mikons is more party.

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:18.200
<v Speaker 1>But I definitely loved it. I would go back for sure.

0:22:18.920 --> 0:22:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Emilia was showing me a picture the other day. He's like, look,

0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:23.359
<v Speaker 1>don't you wish we can go back there. It was

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:26.520
<v Speaker 1>like a picture of our balcony, like from our balcony,

0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:29.000
<v Speaker 1>like it was I think, I don't know if it

0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:30.600
<v Speaker 1>was the moon. I'm assuming yeah it was the moon.

0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:32.960
<v Speaker 1>It must have been the moon because it wasn't the sun.

0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:35.600
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, it was like a picture of just like

0:22:35.720 --> 0:22:38.679
<v Speaker 1>the outside of the home, like from the balcony, and

0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:40.440
<v Speaker 1>it was I'm like, oh my god, like.

0:22:40.400 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 2>I kind of I don't know it was.

0:22:43.480 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 1>You guys, if you ever have the chance, I think

0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:51.560
<v Speaker 1>that definitely Greece's is a good place. And while we

0:22:51.560 --> 0:22:54.600
<v Speaker 1>were in Greece, we were talking about where else do

0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>we want to go? And I really want to go

0:22:57.640 --> 0:22:59.639
<v Speaker 1>to Bali, you guys, I want to go to Bali.

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I want to go to Jamaica. I want to go

0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 1>to Egypt, Thailand, like I love anywhere Asia. And also

0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:10.440
<v Speaker 1>we talked about the Maldives. We talked about Bora, Bora,

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:13.560
<v Speaker 1>like there are so many places in the world that

0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to see, and I just pray that God

0:23:16.200 --> 0:23:18.960
<v Speaker 1>gives me work so I can continue to do these

0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:22.199
<v Speaker 1>things and health because when I was sitting on the

0:23:22.200 --> 0:23:25.240
<v Speaker 1>balcony meditating every single morning, and I would open up

0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 1>my eyes because like I was like in such deep

0:23:27.760 --> 0:23:30.800
<v Speaker 1>state of meditation that when I would open my eyes,

0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:33.359
<v Speaker 1>it's almost like, oh shoot, I forgot where I was at.

0:23:33.440 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>And then it just takes you back into this moment

0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:38.639
<v Speaker 1>of like thank you God, thank you that I'm able

0:23:38.680 --> 0:23:41.239
<v Speaker 1>to take these trips, that I'm able to see the

0:23:41.280 --> 0:23:44.720
<v Speaker 1>sunset here, to smell and feel the air, you know

0:23:44.760 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 1>what I mean.

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:47.359
<v Speaker 2>Like it's just you can't.

0:23:47.680 --> 0:23:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't like to take those moments and those things

0:23:49.800 --> 0:23:52.399
<v Speaker 1>for granted because and that's what we kept saying, like

0:23:52.440 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 1>how grateful we need to be while we were there

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 1>at dinner and stuff. It's like, you guys, like we

0:23:55.600 --> 0:23:58.160
<v Speaker 1>have to stop and really just think and live and

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:01.920
<v Speaker 1>be in the present because there are people that aren't

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:03.640
<v Speaker 1>able to do that, you know what I mean, aren't

0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:06.040
<v Speaker 1>able to travel or you know what I mean. So

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 1>it's just like a part of me wishes that I

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:11.280
<v Speaker 1>could have because I didn't take a lot of pictures

0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:13.320
<v Speaker 1>or video at all. There were times that I would

0:24:13.359 --> 0:24:16.080
<v Speaker 1>just leave my phone at the house or I wouldn't

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:17.959
<v Speaker 1>take it out of my purse. It was crazy. It's

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the first time I do that, like really do that,

0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Like mind you. I've taken trips with the media to

0:24:23.160 --> 0:24:25.680
<v Speaker 1>like Zion or to Yosemite or whatever, and I don't

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:28.000
<v Speaker 1>really am not on my phone, but when I'm on.

0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Vacation and with my friends, I like to like.

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Capture and take videos and take a bunch of pictures,

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Like I have very few pictures, and I just had

0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 1>them send me stuff. I'm like, you, guys, send me

0:24:39.760 --> 0:24:41.639
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is that you took, because I just feel

0:24:41.640 --> 0:24:43.480
<v Speaker 1>like I didn't capture enough of it.

0:24:43.520 --> 0:24:44.400
<v Speaker 2>And I wish I would have been.

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Able to like show a little bit more through social

0:24:47.200 --> 0:24:50.159
<v Speaker 1>media and what we were eating and stuff, because I didn't,

0:24:50.200 --> 0:24:51.680
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know how to explain it.

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:53.479
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why.

0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:54.960
<v Speaker 1>So a part of me is kind of like, damn,

0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:56.719
<v Speaker 1>I wish I would have been able to show you

0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>guys a little more through through social media, through like Instagram,

0:24:59.720 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>but I was just in the moment. I don't even

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:03.840
<v Speaker 1>know how to explain it, and it was so unexpected.

0:25:04.359 --> 0:25:07.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, well, guys, that was my trip. I wanted

0:25:07.280 --> 0:25:10.080
<v Speaker 1>to just share it with you guys and apologize as well,

0:25:10.119 --> 0:25:14.440
<v Speaker 1>because I was just completely disconnected and didn't share enough.

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.360
<v Speaker 1>I feel I wish I would have shown you guys

0:25:16.400 --> 0:25:18.719
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more like the water and the sky

0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:22.080
<v Speaker 1>and the nighttime and the bars out there, because it

0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>was just so magical. But I think I'm going back

0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:27.600
<v Speaker 1>to Miko nos and Santrini. I don't know when, but

0:25:28.119 --> 0:25:31.840
<v Speaker 1>very soon, god willing, and I will show you guys more. So.

0:25:32.600 --> 0:25:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I am just grateful for a new year of life,

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:39.200
<v Speaker 1>and I came back ready to kick some mass and

0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 1>work because the rest of the year is going to

0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:45.320
<v Speaker 1>be very busy, and I am grateful. I'm grateful for

0:25:45.359 --> 0:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>those days that I had to rest and now at

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:52.800
<v Speaker 1>ravaja and yeah, I'm really looking forward to this next

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:55.960
<v Speaker 1>chapter in my life and I'm happy. So let's go

0:25:56.000 --> 0:25:58.560
<v Speaker 1>ahead and cue the music for this week's quote before

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:07.120
<v Speaker 1>we close out this episode. The quote is trust the weight,

0:26:07.760 --> 0:26:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Embrace the uncertainty, Enjoy the beauty of becoming when nothing

0:26:13.160 --> 0:26:16.960
