{Interview} Exploring Exotic Unknowns with Dani of GlobetrotterGirls Posted on 4 Nov 19:21 , 0 comments

unnamed (1) If you are familiar with us at Nomaterra then you know that we are absolutely enthralled with traveling and exploring the unknown. Being immersed into an unfamiliar culture transmits an indescribable experience, one that allows you to step outside your comfort zone and truly discover yourself. In addition, we also enjoy reading and discovering adventurists who share  the same passion and thirst for wanderlust. Which is why we were thrilled when Dani Heinrich of GlobetrotterGirls.com agreed to an interview. Dani Heinrich has traveled to over 50 countries - from Asia to the Middle East to India - just to name a few! Her fabulous blog showcases a variety of topics such as information on specific destinations, food recommendations, travel tips and more. Read on below as Dani shares her globetrotting adventures! 1. What's your favorite, most exotic location you've traveled to? The most exotic location were the Corn Islands in the Caribbean. They consist of two islands, Big Corn and Little Corn Island, and they belong to Nicaragua. They are little known and truly feel like Robinson Crusoe islands, especially Little Corn. You can only reach them via a small propeller plane from Managua or take a 9-hour boat ride from Nicaragua's east coast.   2. Best hotel pool you've lounged at? [caption id="attachment_2784" align="alignleft" width="300"]unnamed (3) Temple Tree Hotel in Langkawi, Malaysia[/caption] I loved the pool at the Temple Tree Hotel on the island of Langkawi, Malaysia. Everything about the boutique hotel was super stylish, including the long-stretched, super narrow pool. It was such an usual pool, and together with the tropical surroundings, it made for a gorgeous experience. The luxury resort has won several design prizes and is one of my favorite boutique hotels in the world, by the way.   3. Best meal you've had? A tasting menu at the Oddfellow Boutique Hotel in Chester, England. It came complete with a wine pairing, absolutely perfect. One of the most memorable evenings of my life.   4. Most important thing you've learned on your travels? Travel has shown me that experiences are worth so much more than material things. An incredible experience means so much more to me than anything I could ever buy for myself, like a painting, piece of furniture or jewelry. An experience like a special meal in an exotic place, a cooking class in the Middle East or a street art tour in a hip neighborhood of Buenos Aires, the welcoming family in Mexico, or a cycle tour through northern Thailand - things like these mean so much more to me. It's all about the memories!   5. Favorite novel to read on a plane? It's not really a novel but my guilty pleasure in the airport news stand: Vanity Fair. I look forward to flying just because of that :)   6. Biggest fear you overcame while traveling? The fear of the unknown. I used to worry about everything before, and now I am the most laid back person on the planet. Okay, maybe not on the planet, but the most laid back person I know :) I used to over plan everything, and now I barely plan anything. Instead I go with the flow. And all works out in the end; there's nothing to worry about.   About Dani Heinrich: [caption id="attachment_2785" align="alignleft" width="300"]Dani of GlobetrotterGirls.com Dani of GlobetrotterGirls.com[/caption] Dani Heinrich is the vagabonding writer and photographer behind GlobetrotterGirls.com.

Travel Shot Tuesday: Trafalgar Square Edition Posted on 7 May 12:08 , 0 comments

Trafalgar Square As many of you may know, our founders Ben and Aggie have been jet-setting quite a bit lately, spreading the Nomaterra love domestically and abroad! A few weeks back they were in London, where they held an event at Fenwick Department Store's Bond Street location to introduce Nomaterra overseas. They took so many great photos while over there, that we couldn't help but share one more of their own travel shots this week! Be sure to stop by our table at Fenwick's Bond Street store to pick up your favorite Nomaterra scents!

Nomaterra's Fenwick Event Posted on 22 Apr 13:46 , 0 comments

Happy Monday, everyone! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend; our founders, Ben and Aggie, certainly did! They spent the weekend in London, and held an event to introduce our fragrances to the United Kingdom on Saturday, April 20th. photo-1

Saturday was a beautiful, sunny day, and the event took place from 12pm-5pm. We were located on the 1st floor of the store in the beauty and fragrance sections, among a ton of other fragrance brands from Guerlain to Creed and beyond! We introduced our scents to local Brits and tourists alike; one woman visiting from Washington, D.C., absolutely loved our D.C. fragrance! Our scents were so successful that Ben and Aggie ended up staying an hour late to keep mingling and telling the stories behind each of our scents.  photo-2   Many thanks to everyone who came by and explored Nomaterra's fragrances with us! Cheers!
