Beauty pageant Diary | Miss Netherlands (Miss World) finale

21/07/2021 | 2 Reacties

After an intensive year, the final of Miss World Netherlands is a fact. I’ve grown a lot as a woman and often stepped out of my comfort zone (I love). I didn’t win myself, but my good friend Dilay Willemstein was allowed to take home the beautiful crown, which Brenda Muste handed over to her. I am grateful that because of something ‘negative’ like corona, I was able to take a chance next to my beautiful, irregular job. Because we were all temporarily on the ground due to the freeze and travel ban, I was able to make this period something else special. Where one door closes, another door opens. This post is to share the last pictures of the final evening and as a short summary.

To summarize the day: early in the morning, Wednesday, June 31, 2021, we gathered at the Koning in Amsterdam – a beautiful bridal hall, perfectly suited for this evening. After a year the time had come, the final evening was there. From a trajectory of a few months, it became a year-long trajectory due to corona. It has also bridged the ‘gap’ that has arisen in my full-time career as a flight attendant (numerous lockdowns and few to no flights). Was I nervous for the final? Hell yes! You’ve been working towards this for a full year, of course. One of us will be the new Miss Netherlands for the Miss World pageant. (And one of us will also be chosen as Miss Netherlands for the Miss International pageant after some time after this final..). In the morning we practiced our dances several times, our evening gown round, and it was time for a space time for make-up and hair. My make-up was taken care of by Looks by Latife, a great support for me this evening. She made sure that my makeup was beautiful and stayed all night. My make-up was really beautiful thanks to her and I couldn’t have asked for a nicer make-up look! My beautiful curls are made by Team Indola – Kim Kim Haaridee.

Na een intensief jaar is de finale van Miss World Nederland een feit. Ik ben enorm gegroeid als vrouw en vaak uit mijn comfort zone gestapt (houd ik van). Zelf heb ik niet gewonnen, maar mijn goede vriendin Dilay Willemstein mocht met de mooie kroon naar huis, die Brenda Muste aan haar heeft overgedragen. Ik ben dankbaar dat ik door iets ‘negatiefs’ als corona, een kans heb kunnen nemen naast mijn mooie, onregelmatige baan. Door dat wij allen door de freeze en travel ban tijdelijk op de grond kwamen te staan, heb ik van deze periode iets anders bijzonders kunnen maken. Waar een deur sluit, gaat een andere deur open. Deze post is om de laatste foto’s van de finale avond te delen en als korte samenvatting.

Om de dag samen te vatten: vroeg in de ochtend, woensdag 31 juni 2021, verzamelden we in de Koning in Amsterdam – een prachtige bruidszaal, perfect geschikt voor deze avond. Na een jaar was het dan zo ver, de finaleavond was daar. Van een traject van enkele maanden, werd het een jaar lang traject door corona. Het heeft ook het ‘gat’ dat ontstaan is in mijn fulltime carrière als stewardess (talloze lockdowns en weinig tot geen vluchten), doen overbruggen. Was ik zenuwachtig voor de finale? Ja zeker! Je bent hier een vol jaar naar toe aan het werken natuurlijk. Een van ons wordt de nieuwe Miss Nederland voor de Miss World verkiezing. (En een van ons zal later ook, over een tijd na deze finale, verkozen worden als Miss Nederland voor de Miss International verkiezing..). In de ochtend hebben we diverse keren onze dansen geoefend, onze gala ronde, en werd het tijd voor een ruimte tijd voor make-up en haar. Mijn make-up was verzorgd door Looks by Latife, een grote ‘steun en toeverlaat’ voor mij deze avond. Ze had de hele avond gezorgd dat mijn make-up prachtig was en bleef. Mijn make-up zat echt prachtig dankzij haar en ik had geen leukere make-up look kunnen wensen! Mijn prachtige krullen zijn gemaakt door Team Indola – Kim Kim Haaridee.

It was also very nice to have support this evening from my father and mother, good friend Anne-Sophie, Mey, Iris (whom I got to know through Miss World) and dear Hilda, who came especially for me. We did a total of 4 dances, talent round, various ceremonies of the different challenges, a gala round, bridal round and then the announcement of the winner. And that’s my sweet, beautiful and talented friend Dilay. I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the process. A lot of people, and the post is getting too long to list them all! But if someone hasn’t been named, it’s definitely not meant to be skipped!
Het was ook ontzettend fijn deze avond ook support te hebben van mijn vader en moeder, goede vriendin Anne-Sophie, Mey, Iris (Die ik door Miss World heb leren kennen) en lieve Hilda, die allen speciaal voor mij zijn gekomen. We hebben in totaal 4 dansen gedaan, talentenronde, diverse uitreikingen van de verschillende challenges, een gala ronde, bruids ronde en daarna de bekendmaking van de winnaar. En dat is mijn lieve, mooie en getalenteerde vriendin Dilay. Ik wil iedereen bedanken die heeft bijgedragen aan het traject. Een hoop personen, en de post wordt te lang om ze allen op te noemen! Maar mocht iemand niet zijn benoemd, is dat absoluut niet bedoeld om iemand over te slaan!
I’m very convinced that even though I didn’t win, I’m sure beautiful things will come my way and a beautiful door will open to something else great ;), if I just keep believing and do my best. My biggest gains for me are a lot of beautiful people, connections and friendships that I made and got to know during this year. That because of corona, I was able to do something else very special and still had a full agenda. Lock down or not. That I have been able to do things that are not for everyone. That I have been able to inspire people with my pest project and story. That I have been able to attend various masterclasses and workshops. And most importantly, that I have become the more confident, stronger woman that I came into this trajectory for. In addition and combination to my work as a flight attendant and blogger, I can now also expand my old dreams (Pageants and Modeling work). And I am 100x stronger and more confident than before I started.
Ik ben er erg van overtuigd, dat ondanks ik niet gewonnen heb, er vast hele mooie dingen op mijn pad komen en een mooie deur opent naar iets anders groots ;), als ik maar blijf geloven en mijn best blijf doen. Mijn grootste winsten zijn voor mij een hoop mooie mensen, connecties en vriendschappen die ik heb gemaakt en leren kennen tijdens dit jaar. Dat ik door corona, iets anders heel bijzonders heb kunnen doen en alsnog een volle agenda had. Lockdown of niet. Dat ik dingen heb kunnen doen die niet voor iedereen zijn weg gelegd. Dat ik mensen heb kunnen inspireren met mijn pest project en verhaal. Dat ik zelf diverse masterclasses en workshops heb gedaan en kunnen doen. En voornamelijk, dat ik de zelfverzekerdere, sterkere vrouw geworden waar ik hier het traject voor binnen kwam. Naast mijn werk als stewardess en blogger, kan ik mijn oude dromen (Miss verkiezingen en modellenwerk), nu ook verder uitbreiden. En sta ik nog 100x sterker in mijn schoenen dan voor ik er aan begon.

POV: You get to stay at your dream villa in Tulum 🌴
Villa Hunab-Ku @villa_hunab_ku 🍃

Imagine having your own dream villa at your favorite place in the world! 

I had an amazing 4 night stay at this incredible villa. A villa perfect for a bachelorette, family visit, party or lucky me - for myself!

This beautiful place has 5 bedrooms. My personal favorite was the Bali master bedroom - which I chose to sleep in - and the Zen bathroom - A Japanese style bathroom with a yoga garden.

Would you stay here with your friends?

(Swipe) The Souls of Guatemala & Mexico Nov/Dec 2025 🪽🐦‍🔥 I’m beyond grateful to have a lot of close and also new friends and acquaintances from around the world and can call Tulum my second home.

If I didn’t go to México on my own back in May 2022, my life would have been completely different. 

I’m extremely grateful (and privileged) to be able to travel the world as a WOMAN on my own. Although I still live with my parents as in my country it’s hard to afford housing as a single person - I count my blessings and use that form of ‘space’ in my favor as a form of freedom.

The more I travel, the more gratitude I preach and feel, but also realize how only a small group of people (mainly women) is able to go out and explore. 

I started solo travelling back in 2017, and after 8 years, I and have a big worldwide group of close friends and lifechanging experiences. 

One of the first things I have learned from travelling is that your soulmates don’t need to have a similar zipcode. 

Thank you all for existing 🤍🪽

Haven’t been able to take pics with everyone or tag them! Still love you equally x

(Swipe) The Souls of Guatemala & Mexico Nov/Dec 2025 🪽🐦‍🔥 I’m beyond grateful to have a lot of close and also new friends and acquaintances from around the world and can call Tulum my second home.

If I didn’t go to México on my own back in May 2022, my life would have been completely different. 

I’m extremely grateful (and privileged) to be able to travel the world as a WOMAN on my own. Although I still live with my parents as in my country it’s hard to afford housing as a single person - I count my blessings and use that form of ‘space’ in my favor as a form of freedom.

UNESCO world heritage surrounded by Volcanoes 🌋🇬🇹 Antigua - Guatemala

Solo in Guatemala 🇬🇹✨
I started my journey in the beautiful colonial city of Antigua, and it instantly stole my heart.

After a one-hour flight from Cancún and a short drive from Guatemala City, I arrived in a place full of colorful streets, historic architecture, lush gardens and the cutest coffee spots.

It felt surprisingly social for solo travellers, with boutique hotels and hostels everywhere. I felt safe walking around on my own, even early in the mornings and evenings, and everything is close enough to explore on foot.

I spent about three days here, spread out over my trip. Two nights at the beginning and one night at the end. The perfect place to slow down, recharge, and meet people along the way.

Would you add Antigua to your solo travel list? 🤍 #guatemala #antigua #laantigua #solotravel

I almost gave up during the first hour of this volcano hike, but what I saw at the top changed everything 🌋 90 second vlog! ⏰

One of the hardest yet most rewarding things I’ve ever done while traveling.
A few weeks ago, I hiked a volcano, and it pushed me far outside my comfort zone, physically and mentally.

We started the day slow, with breakfast in beautiful Antigua, before being transported to the headquarters to gear up and mentally prepare. The first hour was brutal: steep, cold, and way less oxygen. I was close to quitting. But with lots of breaks, support from the group, and a porter for my backpack, it slowly got better.

This hike is no joke. Bring plenty of water, snacks, layers, walking sticks, and altitude pills; the climate and altitude differences really test you. At basecamp there was no water or electricity, so you truly go back to basics. Cold nights, thin air, and warm cacao shared with people from all around the world after a 4–5 hour climb.

I was completely exhausted, so the only extra hike I did was a short 20-minute climb to the viewpoint, and it was more than worth it. Seeing the volcano erupt every 10 minutes was unreal. One of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life. Even at night, waking up in our shared cabin, we could see it glowing in the dark.

The next morning, after coffee and breakfast, we started the descent. About 2.5 hours down - fast, music in my ears, and honestly… pure fun.

This hike reminded me that the hardest paths often lead to the most unforgettable moments.

Would you try this? 🌋✨
Let me know in the comments.

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

Most incredible moment of 2025, and actually one of the most incredible of my life. Hiking the Acatenago volcano in Guatemala was one of the most challenging things I have ever done in my life, but the reward of pushing my own limits felt unreal. This climb and activity was on top of my bucketlist and for sure one of the most rewarding things of the year! 🌋

80 second solo travel vlog of Lake Atitlan in Guatemala - I had an incredible 3 night stay at @freecerveza - the best place to stay if you search for a social place around Lake Atitlan. 🇬🇹

Waking up to volcanoes on the horizon, vibrant villages by the water, and mist slowly rising from the lake… was pure magic 🌋

Every boat ride felt like a dream, every sunset a reminder to slow down. Guatemala surprised me, but Atitlán left a mark on my soul. 🌋💙

Dutch version below – Hello everyone, I would like to share my truth, vision, and story with all of you, including the beliefs I stand for.

The truths and misconceptions about me and my participation in the pageant and standing up for my personal narrative and story. – Celebrate Your Authenticity: My Core Value, Standing up against Bullying, and Self-empowerment. “I signed a contract that does not allow me to be completely open about my experiences with ‘MWNL’.
