Archief voor augustus 2022

Outfit | Lime

30/08/2022 | Reageer

I recently had another super fun collaboration with Tess V. I chose these two super nice items from a range of items and I’m really happy with them! This pair of ‘skorts’ goes straight into my suitcase for my next trip and goes with everything. I really love wearing bright colors. This blouse is quite timeless and can be worn in many ways. I’m going on vacation in a week from now. I hope I can get on the flight and I’m really looking forward to it. Can’t wait to take you on my next travel adventures! I’ve been selecting some outfits for days haha. The last few days have also been really fun. I’ve had a lot of great flights with many special and new people and had drinks with a large group until late into the night. I hope there will be many more fun days like the past few days!

Outfit | Seventies

23/08/2022 | Reageer

Hi everyone! This outfit is from a few weeks ago. This jumpsuit is really fantastic. Unfortunately, I don’t often have the opportunity to wear my favorite outfits lately. Due to the busy summer season, I wear my uniform at least 5 days a week, and I often take it easy at home during 2-3 days off. I’ve been buying and receiving (in terms of collaborations) a lot of new items lately. Little time to wear it unfortunately, but oh so nice! I hope that during the next winter season, all the cheerful colors will be carried on. Plus, I’m planning to make a lot of fun trips for the rest of this year, which all new outfits are super handy for! I got this cool 70’s look jumpsuit from a collaboration with NA-KD. [Lees meer…]

Being a stewardess | Layovers in Brussels

18/08/2022 | Reageer

Hi everyone! It’s been a while since I last wrote a flight attendant post. I thought it would be fun to make one again, especially now that I’ve had two nice ‘layovers’. I created this post for all flight attendants-to-be, or people who are simply very interested in taking a look ‘in the kitchen’ of life in aviation. With my airline you hardly ever stay in another place, because we mainly only do ’turnarounds’ (at least, especially in my case as someone who is Eindhoven based), but recently we fly from Brussels Airport. I really enjoy staying in a different place occasionally for my work. This year I also loved this during my modeling assignments back in spring, when I often stayed in a hotel with a nice group of girls. In a short time I had two layovers and I personally really liked that. I had a short one night layover from my standby, then about two weeks later a 3 night layover scheduled on my roster. In this post I’ll show you what we’ve been up to on these stops. Despite being not far from home in principle, I had never been to Brussels before. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary (Extra long) | Solo trip to Mexico part 2

04/08/2022 | Reageer

Hello everyone! Great that you are reading my second part of my solo Mexico travel diary. This post is extra long because I didn’t want to split it into two more parts. So I would say, take your time with this! haha. I try to describe my diaries extensively, but some things are left out and I also find it unnecessary to share. Moreover, otherwise the text becomes too long, and I try to describe it broadly. During my travels, I also try to keep a general diary here and there in order to expand this later with the photos. I will continue this second part in Tulum. I would like to take you with me in this sequel! Full of tips and experiences. [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 doesn’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 didn’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. πŸ‡²πŸ‡½βœ¨

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

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

What they don’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:

✨ Miss World
✨ Miss Universe
✨ Miss Grand International
✨ Miss Cosmo
✨ 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. πŸ’«

Gone (solo) travelling 😜

One day they’ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, you’ll be gone.

What’s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?

One day I realized:

I wasn’t afraid of being and travelling alone.

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

So I booked the flight. ✈️

What’s something you’ve been waiting for?
