The Locksmith Dream

The Locksmith’s Dream is a one of a kind and critically acclaimed series of luxury immersive overnight experiences. You will step into a 17th Century manor house seemingly trapped in the 1920, and unravel its narrative mysteries, solve puzzles and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the house and its grounds. You’ll join fellow guests in sifting through the history of the house and its previous inhabitants, supported by the curious staff who seem deeply connected to the house. You’ll dine by candlelight in opulent oak-clad halls and as night falls, you’ll don your unique mask to wander in the strangeness of ‘The House of the Moon’. An experience so good Neil Patrick Harris has personally visited it! There are tickets available for September 26th to 27th and 29th to 30th. If those dates don’t work you can pay a deposit for a later date. Book now.

The Key of Dreams

Key of Dreams

Following the success of The Locksmith Dream, Key of Dreams was born. The Key of Dreams is an immersive Lovecraftian experience like no other. The Key of Dreams is a new luxury, overnight experience combining immersive theatre, narrative puzzles, and fine dining in an interactive macabre world which you help shape. It is an event spread over twenty four hours in a historic manor house where fact and fiction rub shoulders over sumptuous meals in the oak clad banqueting hall. You will take it in your own time – racing to uncover all the answers, luxuriating in one story at depth or anything in between. And for the brave or curious, you can opt in to stay overnight in the house itself to see what dreams may come. This new experience is already available to book in various dates in 2024. Book now.

ULTIMATE ISTANBUL BUCKET LIST & TRAVEL GUIDE

As I stepped foot in Istanbul, I instantly fell under the enchanting spell of this vibrant city that bridges Europe and Asia. Istanbul, with its rich history, diverse culture, and breathtaking architecture, offers an immersive travel experience like no other. From the bustling markets to the majestic mosques, every corner reveals a story waiting to be discovered.

Although it may not seem like it when you arrive, Istanbul has so much to see and enjoy. It’s a lot bigger than meets the eye, anddefinitely bigger than Sultanahmet (Old Town) where most tourists limit themselves to.

WONDERFUL THINGS TO DO IN ISTANBUL

Get acquainted to the city with a walking tour

I usually start all my big city trips with a walking tour so I can plan my remaining time more efficiently, and have an local in hand to ask all the really important questions, like how to get around or better where do I buy the best Turkish Delight?!

BUENOS AIRES BUCKET LIST

Buenos Aires Bucket List

Buenos Aires Bucket List – Shop my look: Dress

Buenos Aires is my city! I was born and lived 23 years in Buenos Aires. Without much further ado, these are the 20 best things to do and see in Buenos Aires. I also include detail on some of the things you must eat when in Buenos Aires and where. Welcome to my Buenos Aires bucket list!

Buenos Aires Bucket List

Have “asado” in a “parilla”

You might find it weird that I’m including this first, specially given that I am now a vegan. But our asado (barbecue) is just such a big part of our culture and it would be stupid to not suggest this to meat eaters. Asado brings Argentina’s friends and families together, and it is done so much differently from anywhere in the world. Argentineans eat most of the cow in asados, not only the meat, but what we call “achuras”. Chinchulines (intestines), chorizo (thick sausage), molleja (gizzard), morcilla (blood sausage) are some of them. If you are visiting Buenos Aires for one day only, make a point of having asado. It’s definitely one of the main attractions in Buenos Aires. The best places for asado are La Cabrera followed by Don Julio both in the neighborhood of Palermo and then La Brigada in San Telmo.

Are you vegan or vegetarian? Then I have you covered! These are the best vegan restaurants in Buenos Aires.

FANKA: BODY SCULPT LEGGINGS REVIEW

VIVAIA ELVIA


WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS REVIEW?

Hi, I’m Paula! I’m a travel blogger, and also a gym aficionado. I mostly lift heavy weights, but love all forms of exercise. Fanka is related to Vivaia which I did a review for after receiving their items and they are my favourite shoes. So I decided to give Fanka a try. Photos below are from the exact leggings I bought.

WHAT IS FANKA?

Fanka, a brand deeply committed to fabricnology, takes activewear to a whole new level. As I explore the essence of Fanka, it becomes evident that this is a brand with a vision, a mission, and a passion for empowering women through fabricnology – a term coined by Fanka to describe their unique approach.

A Fusion of Fabric and Technology

Fanka is more than just an activewear brand; it’s a fusion of fabric and technology, a marriage between comfort and style, and a commitment to quality that shines through its products. The team at Fanka is described as “maniacs” for quality fabric and design, which immediately sets the tone for the level of dedication they bring to their craft. They dive headfirst into extensive research and development, ensuring that each product, including the “Body Sculpt Leggings – Reversible Wear,” is carefully and patiently produced with their own stories woven into them. This level of attention to detail is promising, suggesting that every piece of activewear carries a piece of the brand’s soul.

Performance as a Guiding Principle

Performance is the cornerstone of Fanka’s philosophy. They believe that performance makes everything better, and this belief is embedded in their innovation processes. Each step in the development of their activewear is dedicated to finding the best fabric performance, with a clear aim to make women feel comfortable, convenient, versatile, and radiant in every aspect of their lives. This approach is refreshing; it’s not just about looking good but also about feeling confident and empowered.

Quality Fabrics That Feel Like a Second Skin

One of the standout features of Fanka activewear, including the “Body Sculpt Leggings – Reversible Wear,” is the emphasis on comfort. These leggings offer a skin-like texture and high elasticity, ensuring that you can move freely and confidently. Whether you’re wearing them to the gym or as part of your daily routine, you’ll appreciate the comfort and flexibility they provide.

Functional and Flattering Design

Fanka‘s commitment to creating functional and flattering activewear is evident in the “Body Sculpt Leggings.” These leggings are designed to provide a proper fit and a shaping effect that enhances your confidence. With Fanka’s high-quality fabric, you not only look good but also feel good while wearing these leggings. The reversible design adds versatility to your activewear collection, allowing you to switch up your style effortlessly.

Booty Lift and Tummy Control

The “Body Sculpt Leggings – Reversible Wear” are not just leggings; they’re a confidence booster. Fanka‘s SensELAST 3D technology gives your booty an instant 15° lift and ensures they stay in the right position all the time. Additionally, these leggings offer 360° tummy control, thanks to the high elastic and durable fabric with compression. You can look and feel fantastic while wearing them, whether you’re hitting the gym or going about your daily activities.

Revolutionary Training Support

Fanka‘s commitment to supporting your fitness journey goes beyond aesthetics. The 3D Tech used in these leggings provides muscle support by facilitating specific muscle circulation, minimising muscle soreness. They also offer knee support, reducing joint impact and knee pain while enhancing balance and stability. So not only do you look great, but you also get the support you need during your workouts.

Fast Recovery and Advanced Fabric Technology

The 4-way stretch fabric used in the “Body Sculpt Leggings” provides an impressive 85-95% recovery rate compared to the standard 65-75% recovery rate of typical leggings fabrics. This means that your leggings maintain their shape and performance even after intense use. Fanka’s SensELAST 3D Sculpting Tech combines polymers and elastomers to offer precise control of elasticity and adhesion while maintaining excellent resilience and resistance.

Reversible Wear for Versatility

The “Body Sculpt Leggings – Reversible Wear” feature a 2-in-1 design with a print side and a solid side, making them reversible and perfect for comfortable wear. Both sides are designed to fit snugly on your legs, allowing you to focus on your activities without any distractions.

WHAT ELSE DID YOU GET IN FANKA?

I got the matching top to the leggings and a lose t-shirt. Both are excellent! I don’t like to work out in a sports bra so the t-shirt was a great acquisition.

WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT FANKA?

Fanka‘s “Body Sculpt Leggings – Reversible Wear” have garnered positive feedback from customers worldwide. Isabella from the US loves living in her new leggings, Sofia notes that they fit like a glove, and Shae from Australia praises the incredible support and comfort.
