I'm Going on a Holiday!

Nope, this is not a shot from an after ski -party (I don't ski), but me announcing where I'm going soon. This is a total clickbait because I'm going to ramble enough that you'll have to open the post if you want to know where I'm going. Sometimes I think I'm like super clever and funny.

I'm hauling myself under the hot Thailand sun,

which has to be a different sun than we have here in the North.

Two weeks from now, I'll be switching this arctic proof down jacket and all the wool layers for sun dresses and bikinis.

At the moment I'm so pale than you can literally see through my skin, it's not a good look in my opinion. I can't wait to get a little tanned, get tan lines and have my freckles back! And for the love of god, please don't start preaching me about skin cancer, before you try living in Finland with severe vitamin D deficiency and number of skin concerns that all get better as soon as my skin sees the sun. It's not like I could start looking like an old leather handbag in two weeks.

Even though I really like winter too, I've been dying to go somewhere warm for ages! We even missed summer here in Finland last year, I think I got sun on maybe two days, that is not enough. I finally have the time, and money, to go for a proper tropical holiday! Finnish people are crazy about Thailand, so I'm finally going to see what the fuss is all about.

I think this is the outfit I'm going to wear on the plane, because it's always so fucking cold in there, and when I arrive to Bangkok airport, I'll just throw off the jacket and I'm ready to go. Smart, huh?

From -15 degrees Celsius to +30, I'm prepared for it all!

Are YOU prepared to see me in a bikini for two weeks straight?

I have probably ten pairs of them ready...

PS. There is proof in the first picture that I really do take my pictures on my own.

Best of luck for the tour.
Yeah when I read the title and saw picture I was like is she going to Antarctica 😁
By the way wearing this less dress how did you manage to survive in the snow?

What tour? Do I have a band and we are going on a tour? Why was I not informed?

Wow you are really white!! You will be a huge hit in Asia and especially Thailand. Asians value light skin as a reflection of a privileged lifestyle and that you do not have to toil and work in the sun. Lighter skinned people are perceived as more wealthy and are held in higher regards. You also have red hair but I do not know why they love red heads as much as they do but I am sure your beauty, white skin, and red hair will make you a celebrity!!

Have fun and take lots of pix!

I do not intend to be "hit" or "celebrity" in Thailand, that is just weird. I'm a tourist in there and the people serve me only because I pay them, not because I have light skin. And I do not have red hair!

In Thailand I did not find people treating me like a "celebrity" at all or looking at my skin color, there are a ton of tourists there and I don't think it's unusual for them.

Well said. I think it's important to hold in mind those things that unite us rather than external factors which can be used to buy into this illusion that we're all divided into an "us versus them" social dynamic.

I wouldn't expect it in Thailand, but if you make it to Vietnam, and I highly suggest that you go to Vietnam, it's an amazing country, you may get a bit of... weird celebrity type stuff there. I'm pretty tall, and VERY white. I have been around SE Asia twice and when I am in Vietnam I quite often get asked by local kids in villages if they can take a picture with me, seriously. Also lots of older ladies, especially in markets, will grab my hands and tell me how beautiful my skin is. It's a strange thing but I think it is more common in Vietnam. I was confused the first few times it happened because I think Vietnamese people have freakin gorgeous skin, and so I eventually asked one of the ladies why they all say my hands are so beautiful, and she told me "Your skin is so white! We looooove white skin!!" haha, I was so embarrassed.

MOST OF THE WHITES THAT CANT GET A GF OR HAVE AN UGLY GF, GO TO THAILAND AND VIETMAN...LOL..

STAYED IN THAILAND FOR 2 YEARS. RUSSIANS ARE THE MOST SOBER AND WONDERFUL WHITES IV EVER COME ACROSS, ALSO KNOW A FEW AND ONE OF MY FRIEND MARRIED ONE RECENTLY.

HOWEVER MY RECENT FIRST EVER TRIP TO USA, I FACED ALOT OF RACISM. ALSO WENT TO MEXICO, AND FELT MORE SAFER IN MEXICO EVEN BY THE WHITE MEXICANS/LATINOS. DIDNT FEEL LIKE ALIENATED IN MEXICO. ALSO MADE A POST ON IT.

Yesssss! Thailand is amazing, but be sure to check out Malaysia too if you have the time - the food there is the best you can get in South East Asia!

Disclaimer: I'm from Malaysia so this comment might be a little biased. :P

Vaya que si estoy preparado jejeje, eres hermosa, también prefiero los climas cálidos y tropicales que esos climas hostiles fríos, que disfrutes tus vacaciones

Love the snow and the green shades :) Thailand sounds like tons of fun!! Hope to make there in the near future. Best wishes to you. Steem on :D

Wow, amazing.....

I also want to go to Thailand... so no spoilers Eve! Or at least put SPOILER ALERT in the title when you post Thailand content xD

Maybe I'll only post bikini bum pictures!

Bikini bum pictures! that's just clickbait! You are using powerfull weapons against me! How do you know my weakness!? Who told you?

Couple nights going through your search history and interviewing other males, and then I just took a good guess!

You going through my search history? And you are still talking with me xD? Don't tell me you also like bums and "the other stuff in my search history " :P

You transfered me for a while to the summer with the post ;) wanna see more😅 i mean from your work or maybe bowth :p

beautifull

Wish I could go with you....hahahah
Actually live vacations, really an interesting period coupled with the experiences one gathers.
Have fun dear., you deserve it.
Happy weekend

Muy hermosa ooooooooh yesssss

I have upvoted and resteemed your post. I have also started following you to see more of your work!

I loved reading this feel good post, you have a strong voice, and do well in encouraging motivation. This is definitely inspiring, especially for people, like myself, that have a disability, and get regularly discouraged. And treated differently. I cant wait to read more!
i follow and upvote to your post ,, so kindly follow me back and upvote at given link ,, then i will upvote to your thanks.

Have a great warm vacation !

Thank you, I will!

Dont shoot what it looks like.... Shoot what it feels like :)

Hope you'll have the best of fun as you holiday. Everyone is looking forward to having a holiday. But most persons are stuck in the shackles of work and boss. Congratulations @eveuncovered

Yeah, I thought that someone else took these pictures before you said so and I noticed the viewfinder thing on your phone.

Have fun in the sun... I'm not even jealous... like not at all... definitely not at all... who needs sun anyways...

I don't know why you all think I don't take my pictures myself, I talk about it all the time and put camera details and shit on my posts :D

You shouldn't be jealous, it's probably too hot and humid in there and of course the food sucks and the flight is long and all that!

I would say that in the last photo

There is the proof that you actually take your pictures on your own :)

But Thailand, really? That is so far away!

Well, that too.

So? It's not like there is much warmth anywhere closer :D

Yep, I would have suggested Greece or South of Spain, but that is still not warm enough I guess. Anyway, no matter where you go, it is important to have fun and take care of yourself!

Wow... amazing this traveling... i appreciate this post. best of luck

wwooowww wonderfull picture @eveuncovered

beautiful and high quality photos )

Great sunglasses.

Thanks, they are my faves.

Amazing go catch those rays @eveuncovered 💯🐒

You're not warm enough? I can see snow melting around you in a 100 meter radius. :/

Sorry for causing the global warming.

I have been to Thailand and you are going to love it. Cop khun cup

So cool! I am also going to Thailand in August along with Japan! I think August is going to be the best month ever this year for me! :)

wow! HAVE a wonderful tour dear. But did you really wear that and survived the snow?

No, didn’t survive. Ded now.

Good luck on your trip dear. Superb pictures by the way 😍...smiles, I wish I can come with you. Have fun

Nice, Thailand is fantastic. If you have time, head to the north of Vietnam too, it's pretty amazing. I was there for 6 weeks last year with my kids, had a brilliant adventure
Drop by and check out my blog about it if you're interested
Enjoy your trip
Cheers @goldiemrIMG_1583.JPG

Aaaah I'm so jealous haha, makes me want to travel the world even more! Hope you will have a Wonderfull time in Thailand babe, looking forward following your travel journey :) Greetings from Amsterdam

Brrr... Yeah, go somewhere warm - I moved to Italy last Autumn, and my freckles are still showing!

I'm actually Bangkok and I can assure you that you would become addicted to the food here by the end of your trip. I would highly recommend you to explore and visit the islands in the south of Thailand if you have the chance to do so (clear waters, amazing beaches and very friendly locals ) I do have a few posts about what to do in Bangkok as well as the islands, feel free to check it out if you are interested. Hope you enjoy Thailand! :)

have fun :)

Oooooh where in Thailand do you plan to go? If you need any tips hit me up! I love to travel :-)

A lovely places..

I really like snow, but here in my country there's no winter season, and what are doing that is very crazy dear, did'nt you feel cold there??

Probably not since we (Finns) literally go swim in frozen lakes and roll around naked in the snow :D

I put on the jacket just for show, I was rolling in the snow in my bikini for the rest of the day, very relaxing, not cold at all...

have a wonderful time! :) i know you will.

Two weeks of bikini Eve... hmm tough one but I think I'm okay with that.

I know it will be a bit of a stretch, a week, fine, but two! Try to hang in there!

I just came back from Singapore myself.. average temp 32C. The difference is crazy, but soooo good! Have an amazing time! And don't forget to actually enjoy a bit of holiday time in between all your photoshoots!
Is that a smartphone shutter trigger in your hand on the first shot? If so, what app are you using?

wow. We need more steemit models!

soo hypnotizing

Hope you enjoy Thailand!

And skin cancer...not as big of an issue with the sun as people make it out to be. While part of the UV spectrum does cause skin cancer, getting out in the sun causes your body to produce vitamin D to fight it off. The results in a sort of balancing act, such that those who have exposure to the sun through normal glass actually have a higher incidence of cancer than those who go out in it regularly. So, just make sure you use UV blocking sun screen to make sure you don't burn, and you'll be fine!

YEA, U ALREADY MADE MONEY POSTING NAKED PICS FOR UR TRIP... NO WONDER THESE DAY PEOPLE DO ANYTHING FOR MONEY..
