Workout Anywhere with Ladder

This post is sponsored by Ladder, but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.
You guys know that my schedule is very hectic and every month is different. That's the reason why I love my life - you never get bored! But there are downsides to it, like inability to join a gym or commit to a workout schedule long term. Luckily though, I found this app called Ladder, and it solved my problems so easy. It's like the Uber of workouts. You match with a trainer according to your needs and he or she trains you regardless of where you are with a personalized plan - all via the app! So easy!
I love the idea that I can workout anytime anywhere! From my gym to any travel location, or simply a local beach in my neighborhood. All I need is my phone with me. Moreover, I have a personal trainer available at a click of a button at a fraction of a price. Not only does he train me, but provides accountability, motivation and consistency, everything that I lack with such a hectic lifestyle!

Casa Velas - A Luxury All Inclusive Adults-Only Resort in Puerto Vallarta

It's time to tell you about my ultimate favorite stay in Puerto Vallarta. You guys know from my Instagram that Puerto Vallarta trip was one of my favorites this year, not only due to the people I met, the variety of activities we did, but also for the perfect hotel, where we stayed - Casa Velas. Casa Velas is an exclusive adults only all inclusive resort in Mexico's Pacific Riviera, awarded 4 stars by Forbes Travel Guide and a member of Small Luxury Hotel Group. It has been in the top 5 on Trip Advisor for Puerto Vallarta since 2010! It feels like you are living in a tropical oasis with onsite golf course, luxurious swimming pool and organic garden. The pool is never crowded, somehow it feels that that you are visiting family or friends. Dining on site is fantastic, and room service food is equally as incredible. But if all of the above is not enough luxury for you, you can head out to a private beach club which is located 2 minutes away from the hotel. It features a pool, a jacuzzi, full-bar service and fine dining restaurant.
