Archief voor november 2019

Outfit | Osaka

27/11/2019 | 1 Reactie

The place where I am standing here is called Dotonbori. This place is known for the large “Glico Man” that you can see behind me. This is probably also the most touristic photo spot of Osaka, haha. Together with Yuka and her mother, I started exploring Osaka about halfway through my 14-day Japan trip this year. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Tokyo

Hi everyone! Japan was really a wonderful solo trip. I experienced so many great things, got wonderful new memories and met many people. I will place a lot of travel diaries from my last 3 trips soon. Where I stand here is on a high viewpoint in Shibuya. I am really happy with how the pictures have turned out. These photos were taken by Anita, with whom I went to have lunch this day. [Lees meer…]

Portugal Travel Diary | 4 day Lisbon girls trip

07/11/2019 | Reageer

At the end of October I had been to Lisbon with a friend from my former study International Business (IBS). We were planning to visit a friend of ours who is studying there for a few months. Yanneke and I flew (standby) to Lisbon. This 4 day trip is for me number 4 of 2019 and my 3rd time in Lisbon. As I have said in many posts, Lisbon is my favorite city trip destination in Europe so far. The many colorful streets with sweet little restaurants keep surprising me. The follow up cities are Valencia and Porto for me. In 2015 I went there as a study trip (and during that time, my “cabin crew dreams” started). In 2017 I went there solo. [Lees meer…]

(ChatGPT pic) Should I give pageantry one more chance? 👑 As the first Dutch Miss and Flight Attendant in Dutch history ✈️ 

After competing in most of the biggest pageants in The Netherlands, I honestly thought I was done.

Not because I stopped loving the stage…
But because after years of competing, I had seen enough behind the scenes to make me question whether I still belonged there or in this world ;) 

In 2021 I was supposed to represent my country in Japan. Like so many dreams that year, Covid had other plans.

Since then, I’ve experienced incredible highs, heartbreaking disappointments and moments of injustice (😉) that made me wonder if it was finally time to close this chapter.

But something has changed.

As I’m approaching my 30s, pageantry is finally opening its doors to women beyond their early twenties. And perhaps that’s exactly where my story truly begins.

I’m no longer interested in proving that I’m the prettiest woman in the room.

I want to prove that authenticity is powerful.
That resilience is beautiful.
That using your voice matters.

For years my mission has been standing up against bullying and encouraging others to embrace who they truly are. A project I have seen a lot of other pageant queens do afterwards as well ;)

Maybe that’s the crown I was always meant to wear.

So… should I step onto that stage one more time? 👑

Curious about your thoughts on my pageant veteran period!

The best things that ever happened to me started when;

I stopped waiting. 🌍✨

Some of the most beautiful memories of my life began with a table for one.

What’s one place you’ve always wanted to visit on your own? 🤍

Life moves so fast. These photos aren’t for algorithms - they’re little pieces of a life I never want to forget. If they inspire someone along the way, that’s just a bonus. 🤍✨

One day you’ll realize you were never “too much”. You were just in the wrong place, around the wrong people.

What’s one thing you’ve been told you’re “too much” for? 👇

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. Why I’ve been blogging for 10 years, using Instagram to share my story, and why I decided to participate in beauty pageants like Miss World for my country. 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’. Nevertheless, I want to […]
