Take me back

Hey There!

Take me back to Mexico!

It has been over a year now since I took a week long trip to Mexico with my best friend, and it's all I can think about.  This was by far the biggest and most memorable trip I have ever taken in my life so far.  

I want to go back so bad!

As you know, I am from Duluth, Minnesota and it's winter right now.  I traveled to Mexico back in November of 2013, so you can only imagine my excitment to get out of the cold weather!  I went to the Barcelo Maya Palace Deluxe Resort in The Riviera Maya Mexico and it was incredible!  

The resort!

We flew into Cancun then took a shuttle roughly 35 minutes to our all inclusive resort.  If anyone is thinking about taking a trip, I would highly recommend an all inclusive resort in Mexico.  This specific resort was huge! It would take you hours to walk around the entire resort.  There is so much to do inside of it, plus you have endless choices for excursions.  Excursions are little trips you can take outside of the resort.  For example, me and my friend did a dolphin excursion so we went to go swim with dolphins :)  One of my favorite memories from Mexico.   

Such an amazing experience!

It was a great time to just relax and lay out by the ocean, and let me tell you that swimming in the ocean is simply amazing.



  The hotel we stayed in was pretty amazing too.  I believe we stayed in one of the newest hotels in the resort and your basically inside and outside at the same time.  It's crazy! 

This was the view right outside our room!

Taking nice long walks around the resort was great too! :) 





 And you can't go to Mexico without a specific swimsuit dedicated to the trip!

Doesn't it just scream Mexico??

Alright, well thats all I have to say about my trip to Mexico.  It was absolutely amazing and I will definitely plan to go back in the future!

Thanks again, and stick around for more! :)

Smoothie Time!

 Hey There!


On this beautiful 26° winter day in Duluth, I thought it was a perfect time for a smoothie!! So I decided to share my favorite fruit smoothie recipe with you.
  
Lets get to it!

To start out, you'll need:

• blender
• 1 banana
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup apple sauce
• roughly 10 ice cubes
• handful of black berries
•handful of raspberries
• handful of chopped strawberries
(You can choose how much fruit and what kind you want)


After you get all your ingredients, take out your blender and add everything in.  Liquids first, then the fruit, and then add the ice.  

Blend Blend Blend :)
Once you have all the ingredients, make sure the lid is secure and blend it up!

Looks Delicious!


Once it's blended to your liking, pour in a cup and then, enjoy!! :)



If you want to save some, you can put the rest in a cup and freeze it.  When you're ready to drink it again, take it out, let it thaw, and it's still delicious!!


Well that's it!  I hope you try this out, and let me know what you think! :)

About Me

Hey There!


My name is Gina Glowacki, I am 20 years young from Minnesota, and I am a college student, blogger, adventurist, and a hardcore dreamer.  
but first..let me take a selfie ;)
I enjoy the adventures and memories I take/make in my life no matter how big, small, short, or long they are because I will carry those memories with me the rest of my life.  I am a full blown dreamer and have a very large imagination.  Dreaming for the future gets me happy, excited, and at peace with this crazy world.  It gets me motivated to plan and reach goals in my life.  I consider myself to be a very creative person, as I am an avid pinner on Pinterest (which you should go follow me so we can be pinners together) :)  I love writing in my journal, drawing, and being crafty.  

I have a wonderful boyfriend named Dustin.  He has been in my life for many years now and we have been dating since September 2010.  He is an incredible young man, who surprises me everyday with what he can accomplish.  Both of us are at that point in life where we don't know what we want to do.  I decided to start my own blog, and he recently started a YouTube channel.  This is new to him, but you should definitely go check it out and subscribe.  He has so many interesting and fun ideas for videos, he just needs the audience for them!  Show him some support and click here to subscribe! You won't regret it(:
Me and Dustin(:
 I love everything girly.  Beauty, fashion, makeup, design, shopping, writing, DIYS, and more.  You name it, I love it, but I also love the outdoors!  Exploring, adventures, traveling, camping, snowboarding, swimming, biking, eating, sports, select video games(thanks to Dustin), and more.  


Blogging has always interested me, I just never acted on it until now.  I am excited for this new blog, and to see where it will take me.  Like I said above, I am just trying to figure out my life right now.  I am currently in college for Business Management, but it doesn't feel right to me.  I have been looking into Fashion Merchandising careers because it sounds very interesting to me.  I would love to do online school for that degree, but I don't know where to start with that.  I just know I need to make some changes in my life, and this blog is the first thing. 

I plan on writing about anything and everything.  I think most girls would love my blog once I get more posts up, and I think I have a lot to say that people can relate to.  I will blog about beauty, fashion, thoughts, life, school, questions, music, food, youtube, my likes or dislikes, reviews on products, traveling, fitness, and the list will go on and on.  Whatever I feel like writing down that day, will end up on here, so stick around to see more! 

Thank you guys so much, I can't wait to get into this more and see what happens!
