Yesterday I went to take pictures in Amsterdam with Laura, a friend within my Miss World Netherlands group. We had planned this together for a long time! It was great fun together! Cafรฉ’s and Restaurants are still closed, but there is still a lot of life and things to do in Amsterdam. Amsterdam is less than a 45-50 minute drive for me from Den Bosch, so in principle I am there pretty quickly. By the way, I am here on the dam, which is normally very crowded. [Lees meer…]

I bought this jacket at Primark in the summer of last year. I often wear pink shades and I also personally like the suede look of this jacket. The suede-look is a trend that has been around for a long time already. I bought the flared pants at My Jewellery and it feels very comfortable to wear in my opinion. I find that flared pants generally seem to make my legs look longer and slimmer and I can style it with many outfits. I like wearing it with both heels and sneakers. The shirt and the eye necklace are from Boohoo and I own them for quite some time already. [Lees meer…]

It changed my life.

Not because of the beaches, the sunsets, or the endless tacos.

Mexico taught me that life can be bigger than the version I was settling for.

It was the first place that showed me freedom doesnโ€™t come from having everything figured out, it comes from trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable adventures, confidence I didnโ€™t know I had, and the courage to build a life that feels like mine.

I arrived as someone looking for a holiday.

I left with a completely different perspective on what was possible.

And honestly?

A part of me never really came back. ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝโœจ

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

People see the gowns, the crowns, the photos and the stage.

What they donโ€™t see are the early mornings, the self-doubt, the courage it takes to keep showing up, and the growth that happens long after the spotlight fades.

My twenties taught me that beauty competitions were never really about beauty.

They were about finding my voice.
About learning confidence.
About standing on a stage when I was terrified.
About representing causes I care about.
About inspiring others to embrace who they are.

I had the honor of competing in:

โœจ Miss World
โœจ Miss Universe
โœจ Miss Grand International
โœจ Miss Cosmo
โœจ Miss International (selected to represent the Netherlands internationally, later cancelled due to COVID)

The titles were never the biggest reward.

The friendships, lessons, resilience, opportunities, and the woman I became along the way will always mean more than any crown ever could.

To the younger version of me who dreamed of standing on those stages: we did it. ๐Ÿ’ซ

Gone (solo) travelling ๐Ÿ˜œ

One day theyโ€™ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, youโ€™ll be gone.

Whatโ€™s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?

Beautiful villa @villa_hunab_ku ๐ŸŒด

One day I realized:

I wasnโ€™t afraid of being and travelling alone.

I was afraid of losing my life while waiting for someone else.

So I booked the flight. โœˆ๏ธ

Whatโ€™s something youโ€™ve been waiting for?

Based on facts ๐ŸŒดโœˆ๏ธ Can you relate?

"What do you like to do for fun?"

Leave the country.

New places, new people, new stories.
Every single time.

At what point does it stop being a hobby and become a personality trait? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Mini cut from last weekend in Marbella

Embracing Authenticity | Defending Truth on my Miss World (Netherlands) journey in 2021, my core values and mission

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.
