I Am Leaving Already...

Alright guys, I'm leaving already. No clickbait, it's the goddamn truth. We are going to Dubai later today. So on this episode of Home Improvement, what's going on is first we're making some turkey burgers and then an electrician is coming to sort all the lights because as you can see, like, these don't work and the outdoor ones don't work. So it's just something to do with the fuse box. So it should be really simple. So he'll be here in a second. But yeah, the house is slowly coming together. Training's going great. Off on an amazing trip now for my birthday. Life is good, people. Let's just keep this going. I'm just like waiting for disaster to happen. These are some turkey burgers and I put Nando's seasoning on them. And then we're gonna have some bacon with that as well. I'm gonna wash my hands. And then we're going to get in today's vlog. Give the video a thumbs up so it pleases the YouTube algorithm gods, and let's have a great day. I just want to do my best to be the best that I can be. Is that too much to ask for, God? I mean, you the great Elohim, and I can't find a melody to go along with. Right, people, so this morning's breakfast is looking very keto. I'm keto up until lunchtime, so not really keto. You know I don't like to eat carbs in the morning when cutting down, and this is like an ideal cutting putting breakfast for me. So obviously it's not all for me. Linda behind the camera, my videographer, she gets some too. Put that down the middle. Then I'm probably gonna have like 3 pieces of bacon, 1, 2, 3 turkey burgers. So yeah, this looks absolutely delicious. And I'll be going to— fuck's sake— probably gonna add some ketchup to it. Now this is the happiest I've ever been. I'm gonna get like dressed and showered in a minute, but I just have to record my reaction. Okay, so we're getting the outdoor like power spray. Get a zoom in on that. And like, I've like slight OCD, like actually got like diagnosed with OCD and ADHD when I was in school, like younger. And so like this, like I could watch this all day. You wanna watch Love Island? I wanna watch steam cleaning on my back garden. Like, this is, this is my jam. Look at that! Oh my God, he's going to do the walls and everything. Is anyone else like this? So I'll see you guys in an hour. I'm just going to stare at this guy just hosing away for the next while, and then we're going to go to the gym. The bed was removed. We're putting big desk in there, nice lamp, just plants and shit. It's going to be really good. I'm going to do like whiteboard videos here. And then in the summer, how fresh will this be? We'll have the desk here, open working space, really high ceilings, and then just like a really nice outdoor area coming in. And so we're gonna do, we're gonna do a little before and after on this space right here. That is way better. There's a few stains over there. They said it's iron that they couldn't get rid of, so that's quite annoying, but it's still 100 times better. This is my new project. This is my back garden life, working on the lawn. Just need to dry up a little bit. Yeah, it's not much, but it's honest work. So now the back garden's starting to take shape, so I'm delighted with that. And now, um, as I said, we're going to Dubai later, and I've got someone who's actually a personal shopper here in London, and we connected on Instagram. Said he's actually been following the channel for ages. So he's gonna come over, we're gonna pick out some items to pack for my trip to Dubai. So it'll be really cool 'cause I do like to incorporate some fashion stuff onto this channel. It's a lifestyle channel, you know. We're hitting the gym, we're making meals, we're wearing clothes. Yeah, yeah, Rob, nice one, 'cause you know, wearing clothes is just so original. So he's gonna come over now, then I'm gonna have a little bit of lunch and then get in a quick gym session before I fly out. Flight's at 9, so we're gonna train around 4 or 5 and then go straight to the airport. On travel days, I think working out is even more important because, you know, you're going to be sitting on a plane for like 8 hours feeling gross. And then hopefully this vlog's gonna be epic. Actually, we're gonna start in London and then we're gonna— it's gonna finish in Dubai. It is truly a worldwide adventure. It's the Adventures of Rob. So he's gonna come over, we're gonna pick out some outfits, we're gonna pack, gym, airport, and then Dubai. Sick one. Let's go! I'm leaving already. Clickbait. Look at how dead this fridge is. When I go away, I try to like time it so there's no food in the fridge that's gonna go off, so timed it pretty well. This is gonna help me hit my protein intake today along with— right, you melt a protein bar in the microwave, okay? Then big scoop of vanilla yogurt on top of it. Obviously super high in protein and it kind of gives you that hit, like, to take care of cravings. It's not Froyo, but we can pretend it is. And it's kind of like a good little snack and obviously takes 10 seconds to make. Literally, literally 10 seconds. That's what I'm gonna have for a snack. And yeah, I have that when I'm cutting, bulking, whatever. And yeah, really high in protein. So that's me. Jack, how you doing? Wait, what a place to live! You've got a few Chinese stuff. Oh, absolutely. So we're getting kitted out for Dubai. This is the man right here. Do you want to introduce yourself? Yeah, I own a page called LS Personal Shopper. Yeah, yeah, of course. I'm gonna link that all down in the description box. And if you want to get kitted out, top designer wear, go hit that up. But yes, let's we got. Business is something that we talk about a lot on this channel, so be great to like sit down one day and probably go through the business of selling designer goods. Only recently, so I left my job about 3 months ago. So I started this when I was at university. Yeah, we first worked together. Oh yeah, I remember that. Yeah, and then, um, about 3 months ago it's grown, so there's now 3 of us. Got 2 people to help me out with the orders and everything. There you go, you're not here, man. That's unbelievable. I love that. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah, that's perfect. Of course, definitely 5-star, and also on YouTube as well. There you go. Awesome, man. Have a good day. That was a sick Uber. It was beautiful Mercedes. 5 stars for sure. We are gonna go in and, um, Running a little bit late today, so I'm gonna hit a very quick full body workout. And the reason I'm doing a full body workout is one, because I like them, I enjoy them. One, I like them, I enjoy them. And if I know or think I might miss a training session the day after, I kind of double up on sessions to get in that frequency per week. But so anyways, in we go, let's get it done. All right, people, this is probably the most Rob Lipsett update ever. I'm updating the vlog while pumping out some curls. So pretty much Didn't have time to do a workout today because we got a flight to catch. So I'm going to finish off this set and then we are going to run and pack as fast as we can and get to Heathrow Airport. Taking the tube there. So I'll see you guys in the airport. We are finally going to the airport and I'm going, but first we got to drop off the keys to the property company because I'm giving my mum and my sister a nice little weekend in London. So let them stay stay here. Be a shame to waste this place, especially when I'm paying what I'm paying for it. Anyways, right, let's go. All right, so quick update on the flight. We made it. We actually had the best experience with British Airways ever. Not sponsored, they were just super nice. We had seats— we got a little upgrade. We got seats like beside each other because we were like booked separately, and they're just super nice, really cool. And yeah, next time you see me, we will be in Dubai. So let's go! Alright people, so we've landed. I got about 5 hours sleep, which is alright. It is coming up to 10 AM in Dubai, so we're gonna grab a quick coffee and then we're gonna go to the hotel. Hopefully they can check us in early. If not, it's cool. Just delighted to be here. And also, like I was thinking on the plane, like, just how appreciative I am of everything, how appreciative I am of anyone who likes the video, watches the video, leaves comment, interacts with me on social media. Like, this journey is just so insane to me, and I was having a good think about that on the plane. So thank you guys. But anyway, so, um, you need to hydrate as well. I'm thirsty. So yeah, we're gonna chill here for a little bit, order an Uber, and then let's go to the hotel. We're in Dubai now. It is 25 degrees. Sorry for the avatar, by the way. It's 25 degrees, so we're switching over from the regular skinny cappuccinos, the hot ones, to the ice ones. Much needed. It's going to be a great week. All right, so we made it to the hotel, staying in Rixos Premium Dubai. Just about to go check in and then I'll give you guys a quick room tour. I'm super excited, we got the suite so should be amazing. And yeah, this is like a little birthday treat, so yeah, very excited. So we made it to the hotel, we're just waiting for our room to get ready. And like, this, this is my heaven, like this is my actual heaven. Outdoor wooden gym on the beach, like it's just paradise. So I can't believe like the weights, like these are 20 kg plates, so crazy. I think the last video was finding London's best gym. This is a bit of a level up from it. Okay, let's see how this feels. So nice little beach workout done. Buffet is absolutely insane, but on the first day, trying not to overdo it. Easier said than done. But so just filled my plate up full of veggies, chicken breasts, Sneaky little pizza in there. Let's just pretend that's not even there. Let's pretend that doesn't exist. It's my birthday weekend. Yeah, this is plate number 1, and then hopefully our room will be ready soon enough. So yeah, show you guys eventually the room. It's gonna be sick. Second slice of pizza. It's my birthday. All right, plate number 2. This pizza looks unbelievable. Mmm, good barbecue dip. I'm in my happy place. All right, I promise this is the last plate or bowl that I'm gonna eat. It's my birthday weekend, I'll do what I want. It says baklava, ice cream, variations of baklava. So we just got the keys. Oh hey, how's it going? Hello, very nice to meet you. What's up? Hello, how's it going? This is amazing! Oh my God! Oh, whoa! Check this! Wow! Oh my God! What? Oh my God! Oh my God! Martin, that's your tour. Fuck! What the fuck? Oh my God, I'm in shock. It's amazing. Best birthday weekend ever, right? Room tour, just— I just can't get over the view. Insane. So it's right on Jumeirah Beach. Look at that. First of all, the view is the best view I've, I've ever seen in Dubai. I cannot believe this. Okay, let's go in here. Whoa! Oh my God, what the hell? I actually— I'm actually in shock. It's huge. We've got a huge party here. This is the bathroom. Again, absolutely massive bathtub jacuzzi thing. Oh, it's 23010. Yeah, look, there's a number there. Oh my God, trio. It's literally 3 rooms in one. The size, like, we've got a bathroom and a bedroom each. And the TV, I just— more views for days. Like, I just can't get over this. I just feel so grateful. Fuck me. Man, I just keep thinking of like fucking starting out. It's crazy. Jesus, mad. Third bathroom just in case. Nice. Yeah, so this is it, Rixos Jumeirah Beach. I'll absolutely link the hotel in the description box. This is Absolutely insane. Got a kitchen over here, didn't even see that. You can order breakfast in bed. Okay, random room here. Okay. Oh, goes in a circle. Okay, I get it. Oh, we can play like chasing. Be an interesting vlog to look back on the last 24 hours, just like, what? Anyways, I'm gonna finish up this vlog here. Um, like I was saying earlier, I had like some time to reflect on the plane there, and as you do around your birthday, you know, you can review the years, you have to think back, and just the last 5 years have just been so insane, and it's even hard to believe. Like, this is all just surreal to me. It's crazy. And if anyone's watching this video, and you know, if I want to put like one message in this video, is that if you're thinking about doing something, pursuing a passion, setting goals and going after them, then hopefully this is, you know, just, just the kickstart you need because you won't regret it. And you'll be shocked at what you can do if you're actually doing something that you love and that you're passionate about. For me, that is creating content, travel, fitness, business, everything. And I'm just so grateful for how the past couple of years have gone. So what an amazing way to finish 27. Gonna wake up, I'm gonna be 28 tomorrow, on the way to 30. But, uh, thank you so much. Crazy. And yeah, we're gonna finish the vlog here, go meet Mike and Louie and do some shopping, just have a nice day. So thanks so much, guys. See you in the next one. Kind of lost for words here, but yeah, keep it real. See ya, peace.
