Let's Get To Know Each Other
My name is Naila Matloub. I’m a true lover of life and I embrace all that this world has to offer. I created this blog as a place to dump all things I learn along my journey in this lifetime. From petite fashion, to travel guides, to self-care, and even my favorite brands and products, my blog is my place to share it all!
I am a Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance and I teach in Phoenix, Arizona! As someone who has a wide variety of interests, it has always been hard to pinpoint just one passion. However, it has boiled down to a few major things, two being a passion for sharing my knowledge and offering a helping hand however I can.
I have always loved writing and I used to dream about creating a blog. Now that it has come to life, I’m committed to sharing all the things I love and doing everything that makes my soul happy, and I will forever encourage you to do the same.
With a soul that’s eager to learn and explore, this lifestyle blog is dedicated to sharing my adventures, tips & tricks, life, and the people that inspire me along the way.
I can’t wait for you to explore and grow with me, xo!
F A Q:
♥ What do you use to take your photos?
-I use a Nikon D3200, Canon G7X Mark II, or an iPhone!
♥ What do you use to edit your photos?
-I mainly edit on Lightroom and via iPhone’s photo editor. Sometimes I’ll use Facetune to perfect/add detail on my pictures.
♥ Where was your first trip to?
-My first ever solo trip started with a beautiful week long trip along the Pacific Coast Highway. I drove from Arizona, to California, through Oregon, and finally ended in Seattle. Then, my first solo out of the country trip was an iconic Costa Rica adventure.
♥ Advice for saving money when traveling?
-Personally, the first piece of advice is to book everything in advance overtime while saving for the trip itself. Make sure to do your research on pricing for everything you book and plan! I also recommend to eat locally, stay in Airbnb’s, hostels, or less fancy hotels, and don’t splurge on too many souvenirs/unnecessary things. Make sure to book tours in person, get tips from locals, and steer clear of touristy spots.
♥ Do you ever book through agencies or buy tour packages?
-No, I prefer to do my own research and book everything myself. From flights and transportation to activities and places to stay, I choose it all. I find that it saves me more money and time while having the freedom to explore each destination on my own terms. More tips are found in each travel post.
♥ Where do you like to shop?
-I love shopping anywhere that has fun, unique pieces for less! My favorite regular priced retailers are Zara, Nordstrom, and TopShop. Online boutiques I adore are SKIMS, Naked Wardrobe, PrettyLittleThing, House of CB, and Jluxlabel. As for unique pieces for less, I shop at Last Chance, Buffalo Exchange, and Plato’s Closet often!
