New Travel Product Essential for Women Who Adventure!

To my ladies who love a great adventure but not always the sweat and stink that comes with it — I have a new travel product essential to tell you about that’s going to make you look forward to those rigorous activities! Secret deodorant has created the first ever product that’s designed with us in mind when it comes to needing some freshness on the fly!

Hence the name of the new product; Freshies! An amazing little ball of fresh goodness that easily fits in your purse, backpack, camera bag, etc., but won’t accidentally open and cause a mess, or embarrassing accidental public appearance!

As someone who has on more than one occasion discovered my travel sized deodorant’s top popped off and contents mushed around the bottom of my purse, I definitely appreciate this design! Not to mention, also as someone who lives out of a suitcase and loves all products that help me feel clean and elegant on the go!

For more than 60 years, Secret has worked hard for one reason; to champion feminine strength, and they definitely nailed it with their new Freshies! Here is some more specific information about the amazing new product:

Inconspicuous (and Cute!) Design

secret freshies mylifesamovie.com

Did you know that one in three of us women reapply deodorant throughout the day? Plus probably all of us traveling women apply it on the go, which makes the inconspicuous design of the new Freshies so ideal! Instead of having to pull out that obvious design of a stick of deodorant, the new Freshies disguises its contents in a cute, colorful little ball!

Even if someone else did realize it was deodorant, they’d probably be too distracted with how cute it is, and ask you where to get one (hint – they’re available at Walmart – you can buy yours here!)

Super Functional and Fresh

Designed with you in mind, the new Freshies deodorant has a reassuring click-lock that prevents messes while it’s being tossed and tucked into whatever bag you’re currently exploring with! That means no more reaching into the inside pocket of your purse and pulling out a nail full of white deodorant chunks!

The new Freshies also are designed with finger-gripping grooves, and they fit perfectly in the palm of your hand, for quick and precise applications every time!

Not to mention, a super fresh feeling every time too! Freshies not only protect from wetness and odor, but they come in delicious premium scents like Cool Waterlily, Luxe Lavender, Paris Rose, and Chill Ocean!

Immediate Confidence Boost

According to science (lol) you feel more confident when you’re not self-conscious about body odors! Whether you forgot to put deodorant on, or you tend to sweat more like I do (Cubana plus chronic adventurer equals a lot of sweat!), Freshies will always have you covered with an on the fly confidence boost!

For me personally, I do a lot of activities that involve water then sun, which means my deodorant always gets washed off, then I immediately start sweating. That’s when Freshies comes in handy, because I can just nonchalantly swipe it on after a dive or waterfall dip, and continue with the rest of the adventures!

 

Get yours online by clicking the scent/color options below, or in participating stores!

  • Samarkand the second time was even more magical! Since I went here last year, they’ve now started doing these “flying dress” photoshoots at Registan Square for around $67, which was definitely worth it!

Go super early (6:30-8) to avoid anyone in your photos AND to avoid annoying other travelers trying to take photos 😬

We also got a few group pics with the Travel Tribe! It’s definitely been extremely fun being here a second time with them!!

  • Kyrgyzstan is rising in popularity as a unique travel destination and its easy to see why!

From the beautiful nature to the well preserved culture, plus being extremely safe, it really makes it an ideal destination, but definitely expect some logistical hurdles 😁

Horseback riding in Chon Kemin and visiting Ala Archa National Park are a must! That's also where we learned about the Golden Eagles, a centuries old tradition practiced by their nomad culture that is still done today, mostly to continue keeping the traditions alive and teaching visitors about it.

Do you want to visit Kyrgyzstan?

I'm currently hosting a custom created "luxe-adventure" through the 5 Stans of Central Asia with my group adventure community @mylifesatraveltribe! This trip is in high demand so if youd'd to join one of them, please follow there and sign up for our notifications email list linked on the bio, as we dont publicly announce or send out our itineraries. 😁

  • I was one of the last foreigners permitted in Virunga National Park in D.R. Congo before it was closed due to many armed and dangerous groups occupying it. 

That experience was one of the most memorable ones in my life, and part of why I’ll always say DRC is one of my favorite destinations I’ve been to (4 times).

But DRC is also one of the most corrupt countries, with some of the most horrific ongoing atrocities committed on the local Congolese people, the environment, and the animals by greedy, heartless humans.

Deforestation, illegal mining for minerals used to make your electronics, and destruction (plus human abuse) are a part of why the animals there suffer.

Poaching for bushmeat and to steal baby primates to sell as pets is another.

If you’ve ever seen a primate, especially chimpanzees, kept as a personal pet or on display, its parents were likely killed so it could be kidnapped. UAE and Gulf countries, Thailand, China, Eastern EU countries, and even people in the USA are all guilty of this.

That’s why one of the organizations I’ve become an ambassador for in D.R.Congo is @lwiro_primates . 

Lwiro Primates take in injured, abandoned, and smuggled primates, and they rehabilitate and care for them, even during a time when their own homeland is a very scary please.

So I am kindly asking today on World Giving Day for Apes, to send them a donation, or at least share their story or the info in this post. Anything helps, nothing does not.

And if you ever see a chimp as a pet, please ask the owner if they’re aware that its parents were likely killed just for it to be kidnapped and forced to be a pet. 😡

The link to the fundraiser is on Lwiro’s page and I’ll share on my Stories!

I’ve brought about 100 travelers to D.R.Congo, and they all can attest to what a beautiful and unique place it is. I pray and dream for the day that we can safely return there and bring tourism back.

  • The highlight reel of Skardu, Pakistan! If you'd like the behind the scenes, see my previous posts or the story highlight! But also, yes, it really is this beautiful!

Do you like pretty highlight reels or do you prefer the struggle clips? 

Asking for a friend...who has a lot of both... 😬
  • The Photo VS the Moment in Skardu, Pakistan (wait for the videos after the photo) for anyone who thinks getting photos is easy, behold, freezing water, climbing on rocks, and magical geese who apparently want to be featured in the pics.!

(Comment "Skardu" and ill DM you my full travel guide plus how to get notifications for the group trip next year!)

What's the wildest thing you've done for a photo??

Thank you Destination Pakistan for the offer to work together and for helping get this footage so I didn't have to always use my tripod or selfie stick!
  • Just confirming that Haveli restaurant has the best rooftop view in Lahore! Make a reservation because it's always busy and ask to sit closest to the mosque!

The entire building of Haveli is beautiful and fascinating! A former mansion that's ornately decorated, and located in an area that was formerly infamous for..brothels!

Now, largely thanks to tourism demand, this area of Lahore is a lot cleaner and safer than it used to be, and it offers some of the most spectacular sites to see, both from above and below!

What would you rate this view from 1 to 10??
  • Made it to Skardu without any flight issues! Flights to and from the mountain region of Pakistan have a pretty high rate of cancellation due to unpredictable weather...

And speaking of unpredictable weather, the reports said it would be really cold, but it was warm, so i "had to" go shopping for shalwar kameez as soon as I arrived 😍

Then it was off to the Shangri La Lake for some pink tea before making the drive to Shigar cold desert for a sunset horseback riding session, before settling into a beautiful riverfront boutique resort!

Everyone says you have to go to the northern mountains of Pakistan, and now I see why! This place is magical and I only have a few days to explore!

PS did you know that this region has the highest number of world's tallest mountain peaks, it has has both deserts and lakes at extremely high altitudes, and also the largest glaciers in the world aside from the polar regions??

More coming soon! Do you want to visit Skardu??

KYRGYZSTAN! A destination many travelers are talking about this year, especially with the recent World Nomad Games happening here recently!

This is country 1 of 5 of my custom created 5 'Stans Group Adventure itinerary for my Travel Tribe, and it has already been an incredible journey so far (albeit, extremely difficult logistically)

Kyrgyzstan is a gem for those who love pristine nature and unique well preserved cultures! 

The Golden Eagles are a staple of ancient nomadic culture here, and today are showcased in the National Parks and other areas to keep their culture alive and educated about! These giant birds were used to hunt and as status symbols, and are like family members to the owners!

Is Kyrgyzstan on your to-go list?
