UAE mini travel diary | 4 day best friend visit in Abu Dhabi

16/11/2024 | Reageer

Hi everyone! Earlier this month, I flew to Abu Dhabi for less than 4 days to visit my best friend. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates, and together with Dubai the largest city in the country. Our friendship is rock solid, despite all the distance. I believe that distance only separates us physically, but not in heart and soul. Abu Dhabi is a place I had never visited before, except for 12 hours between two flights. That was also the last time I saw Roos. Even though I planned to spend this trip less on content and we didn’t have any big plans, I still wanted to make a little travel diary – so I could always watch it again.
Hi allemaal! Begin deze maand, ben ik voor minder dan 4 dagen naar Abu Dhabi gevlogen om mijn beste vriendin op te zoeken. Abu Dhabi is de hoofdstad van de Verenigde Arabische Emiraten, en samen met Dubai de grootste stad van het land. Onze vriendschap is ijzersterk, ondanks alle afstand. Ik geloof dat afstand ons mensen alleen fysiek scheid, maar niet qua hart en ziel. Abu Dhabi is een plek die ik zelf nog nooit eerder had bezocht, op 12 uur na tussen twee vluchten door. Dat was ook de laatste keer dat ik Roos zag. Ondanks ik deze reis van plan was minder met content bezig te zijn en we geen grootse plannen hadden, wilde ik toch graag een kleine reisdiary maken – om het toch altijd opnieuw te kunnen bekijken.

Day 2 – 4-11-2024 – Abu Dhabi

I arrived early in the morning after a 6.5 hour night flight – which left the Netherlands late on day 1, after which Roos picked me up from the airport after a flight (with my crew ticket arrangement) with Etihad. It was still exciting at the airport, because I only got a seat at the very last moment. Instead of sleeping after arriving due to our broken night, we actually started the day right away, had some coffee despite the broken night and went out straight away.

The day started at the Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Mosque. The mosque is one of the largest in the world, with a capacity to accommodate 40,000 people at the same time. Women are requested to cover themselves in the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi out of respect for Islamic guidelines, which emphasize modesty and reverence in holy places. That is why I wear modest clothing here. Some hair may be visible, but most of it is neatly covered. I was allowed to borrow this beautiful abaya from my sister. This place is beautiful and definitely worth a visit! Furthermore, it is connected to a large shopping mall, where you can also visit various shops. We also had a Lebanese meal here – one of my favourite cuisines.

Then we went to the Louvre, and you heard it right – there is also one in Abu Dhabi. Unfortunately it was closed on Mondays, so a tip to keep an eye on the opening days and times in advance. It was nice to see it from the outside! Later that day we went shopping, where I found a spray from Lush that I had been looking for for ages, but inadvertently paid 60 euros because it was imported of course and the prices are a lot more expensive (I didn’t pay attention to the price) while it is twice as cheap in the Netherlands, without asking for the receipt.. But hey, lesson learned to convert the currency in my head a bit better! That evening we had a movie night together at home.

Ik kwam s’ochtends vroeg aan na een nacht vlucht van 6,5 uur – die laat in Nederland vertrok op dag 1, waarna Roos me na een vlucht (met mijn crew ticket regeling) met Etihad van de luchthaven ophaalde. Het was op de airport nog even spannend, omdat ik pas op het allerlaatste moment een stoel kreeg. In plaats van te slapen na aankomst door onze gebroken nacht, zijn we eigenlijk gelijk met de dag begonnen, wat koffie gaan drinken ondanks de gebroken nacht en direct op pad gegaan.

De dag begon bij de Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Moskee. De moskee is een van de grootste ter wereld, met een capaciteit om tegelijkertijd 40.000 gelovigen te huisvesten. Vrouwen worden verzocht zich te bedekken in de Grote Moskee in Abu Dhabi uit respect voor de islamitische richtlijnen, die bescheidenheid en eerbied op heilige plaatsen benadrukken. Daarom draag ik hier modest kleding. Er mag wat haar zichtbaar zijn, maar het grootste deel wel netjes bedekt. Deze mooie abaya heb ik mogen lenen van mijn zus. Deze plek is prachtig en ook zeker een aanraden te bezoeken! Verder zit het gekoppeld aan een groot winkelcentrum, waar je ook diverse winkels kunt bezoeken. Wij hebben hier dan ook ergens Libanees gegeten – een van mijn favoriete keukens.

Vervolgens zijn we naar het Louvre gegaan, en je hoort het goed – er is er óók een in Abu Dhabi. Helaas was het op maandag gesloten, dus een tip om de openingsdagen en tijden van te voren in de gaten te houden. Het was wel mooi om het van buiten te zien!  Later die dag zijn we nog gaan winkelen, waar ik een spray vond van Lush die ik al super lang zocht, maar onoplettend 60 euro heb betaald omdat het natuurlijk ingevoerd is en de prijzen een stuk duurder liggen (ik lette niet goed op de prijs) terwijl hij in Nederland 2x zo goedkoop is, zonder het bonnetje te vragen.. Maar goed, les geleerd om toch wat beter de valuta in mijn hoofd om te rekenen! Die avond hebben we samen nog een filmavond gedaan thuis.


Day 3 – 5-11-2024 – Abu Dhabi

The next day we went to a super nice beach spot that reminds me of La Mer in Dubai. This spot is called Marsana Beach, a really nice and quiet spot where you can enjoy the sea and nice restaurants. I think the safety in Abu Dhabi is fantastic. Although I would normally never do this anywhere – you can leave your stuff here. At Marsana beach, we had lunch at Drvn Coffee – to eventually cook at Roos’s house.
De dag erna zijn we naar een super leuke strand plek gegaan die me doet denken aan La Mer in Dubai. Deze plek heet Marsana Beach, een hele leuke en rustige plek waar je van de zee en leuke horeca kan genieten. Ik vind de veiligheid in Abu Dhabi trouwens fantastisch. Al zou ik dit normaal nooit ergens doen – kun je hier prima je spullen laten liggen. Bij Marsana beach, hebben we nog gelunched bij Drvn Coffee – om uiteindelijk bij Roos thuis zelf te koken.
Day 4 – 6-11-2024 – Abu Dhabi

After an extensive breakfast together at Roos’s house, we finally left for the airport at the beginning of the afternoon, I was quickly offered a seat at Etihad ‘ipb’, so I could go home again in peace. It was nice to be with her again, and to spend some time with her for a while.
Na uitgebreid samen ontbijten bij Roos thuis, zijn we uiteindelijk aan het begin van de middag rustig richting de luchthaven vertrokken, ik kreeg al snel een stoel aangeboden bij Etihad ‘ipb’, waardoor ik weer rustig naar huis kon. Het was fijn weer bij haar te zijn, en kort wat tijd met haar door te brengen.

Thank you for reading my travel diary!

Tips for Visiting Abu Dhabi

  1. Visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
    • Women must dress modestly; an abaya is required.
  2. Check Louvre Abu Dhabi’s Opening Hours
    • The museum is closed on Mondays, so check ahead.
  3. Relax at Marsana Beach
    • A safe, peaceful spot with great cafes like Drvn Coffee.
  4. Watch out for currency conversion when shopping
    • Imported products can be more expensive.
  5. Explore Dubai, just 1.5 hours away
    • Easily make a day trip to Dubai for more attractions.

Clips from the finale of @miss_grand_netherlands @missgrandinternational 
Let them laugh because I didn’t win. Let them whisper and mock my presence. It’s always the ones too afraid to step into the light who throw shade from the shadows. I am not the one boiling in insecurity, hiding behind sarcasm and gossip, skipping every room that might expose their own irrelevance. I show up — boldly, visibly, authentically. And even without their applause, I’ve already walked miles ahead. Because when you’re truly building a life, you don’t have time to tear others down. So laugh all you want. I’m still everything you’ll never be brave enough to become.”

BaroQco Challenge – Mandy Victoria, Miss Grand Den Bosch 

I would love to take you into a world I’ve dreamed of since I was a little girl, the world of modeling.
10 years ago, At 18, I got my first chance: becoming the face of a show that celebrated women in all shapes and sizes. A world I fell in love with, but one I had to fight to belong to.

For years, I was told I wasn’t enough. Too different. Too much. But I never gave up.

That’s why BaroQco speaks to my soul. Their delicate, handcrafted pieces, created with passion and Swarovski crystals, are more than fashion, they’re a celebration of uniqueness and empowerment.

BaroQco helps women shine in their own powerful light, and that’s exactly what I stand for.

Being Miss BaroQco would be a dream come true. A chance to show that resilience, elegance, and authenticity are the real jewels we wear.

Thank you.

7+ years as a flight attendant ✈️ As the first Dutch miss & stewardess, I’ve not only worked in the sky, but used my journey as a platform — to share my story, to inspire others, and to speak up for authenticity. From overcoming bullying to transforming COVID into a time of change, my experience became more than a job: it became my mission. Through my pageant journey, that mission reached even further — including within aviation. Here are some of my proudest highlights:

7+ years as a flight attendant ✈️ As the first Dutch miss & stewardess, I’ve not only worked in the sky, but used my journey as a platform — to share my story, to inspire others, and to speak up for authenticity. From overcoming bullying to transforming COVID into a time of change, my experience became more than a job: it became my mission. Through my pageant journey, that mission reached even further — including within aviation. Here are some of my proudest highlights:

📍 Host of the charity gala for @peterpanvakantieclub & @ester_fonds (2021) — raising a record amount for holidays for vulnerable children
📍 My personal bullying story featured on Transavia’s official blog ‘People at Transavia’ and their socials (2020/2021)
📍 Featured in the Transavia newsletter for all passengers with my city guide to Den Bosch (2021) @transaviadichtbij 
📍 Interviewed for an in-house documentary about COVID, my aviation career, pageantry and transformation — filmed in (2021) (yet to be released)
📍 Volunteering at schools to teach teenagers about the aviation industry (2021) @jincnederland 
📍 Guest at the Peter Pan x Ester Fonds charity dinner (2023) @peterpanvakantieclub @esterfonds_ 
📍 Received fan art (2021)
📍 Published in the Peter Pan foundation book with my story on bullying and empowerment (2021/2022) @charles_kint_48 
📍 Travel article published in @vriendin_nl (2022)
📍 My story on COVID, pageants, bullying and authenticity featured in @luchtvaartnieuwsnl & @reisbizz (2021 & 2024) 
📍 Coverage in national newspapers, regional television and online platforms/newspages (2021 until 2025), too many to (re)post @brabants_dagblad @omroepbrabant @dtvnieuws @indebuurtdenbosch @ad_nl 
📍 Took my sister @msmore_claudia to work during Christmas — a memory we’ll never forget (2022)
📍 A pageant friend followed her dream to become ground staff @latifelatifey (2024)
📍 Made new flying friends and met other incredible people @cheyxliberty @janinewillemke @yours.brenda

From the sky to the one and only @missgrandinternational @miss_grand_netherlands Miss Grand - Den Bosch 🇳🇱 

This incredible summer make-up & hair look with a natural finish has been created by @timac.beauty and her talents in her studio💄 Later we did a glam look shoot and I’ll post that soon! 

I was never born to fit in. Standing in your own authenticity can be challenging, but it’s worth it.
