Greece Travel diary | 4 day holiday to Zakynthos

| Reageer


I can’t believe how fast time goes. Zakynthos has been seriously almost 2-3 months since I post this (Early September)! I will already tell you that Zakynthos is one of the most beautiful places I have visited in Europe and I highly recommend it! The flight distance is around 2.5 hours, so also quite close. This trip was a total of 4 days. You can do a lot more in such a short time than you might think. I like to go on an adventure or discovery. A complete “beach vacation” or “party vacation” is not for an adventurous and curious person like me. So I have to tell you that I really can’t spend whole days just lying on a beach. I prefer to travel (around the island (with or without a plan) with a car), sightseeing, discovering a nice new city and old streets, eating and drinking deliciously, trying local food, drinking coffee on terraces, taking lots of pictures with my camera, exploring the local culture of a place (for example, my Japan trips), visit viewpoints over the city or landscapes, get to know new people from all over the world, see beautiful places, do lots of cycling and walking, or on adventure/discovery… you name it.

Outfit | Alicante

| Reageer

Hi everyone, this was my first outfit in Alicante. Recieved a lot of positive reactions, so time to list all the details here. I ordered the skirt and the blouse almost a year ago, and only now made an outfit post out of them despite I often wear them both with a different combination. The weather in Alicante was still well around 25 degrees when I was there with a friend, so totally great! I really like the neutral colors of the outfit, also because autumn is here. It’s a 70’s look in 2021 style. By the way, this skirt has a nice sparkle and I also wear it a lot during autumn/winter with over-the-knee boots and a turtle neck top. The blouse is made of a satin-look fabric and also very beautiful with black trousers and high heels. By the way, where I am here in Alicante is a surprising place. When we started wandering around the city without a plan, we soon arrived at a very old neighborhood, which is also where the place where I am standing in the pictures is located. [Lees meer…]

In between all the Alicante and other travel posts, here’s a throwback outfit post from my Zakynthos trip from last September. I got a lot of positive reactions from you ladies about this set, and I collected all the photos I could find from my upcoming travel post and processed them in a separate outfit post. This dreamy set is fantastic for a fun summer trip to an island like Zakynthos, Ibiza, Curaçao, you name it! I think it’s so cute and it’s lovely to wear with high temperatures. By the way, I received a lot of items from my long term collaboration that will soon be on my instagram: By Dash Beauty & Fashion. At the bottom of the post you can find a link to the set and website.

Hi everyone, I now have a wonderful 17 days holiday from work, but I’m still very busy with mainly fun things, an interview, 3 day trip to Alicante, my friends and 2 shoots in one week. I like to plan my days full, but also keep a lot of days completely empty. I have a lot of time to relax. In the meantime, I have also started ‘floating’ and did it twice already, a really great recommendation if you want to completely relax on your own.

Solo Travel diary | 5 day May solo trip to Dubai

| Reageer

Hi everyone. I made a very ‘special’ blog post about my Dubai trip at the beginning of May. I want to say in advance that this is a journey in corona time, so you can certainly have an opinion about this. But published negative opinions are not welcome on my platform. Nor do I mean to ‘motivate’ people with this to travel to a risk area and not to stick to the ‘urgent advice’. And, I would like to mention here, that traveling to (orange areas) is discouraged, but not prohibited. (Holiday to an orange area is therefore not prohibited, and the quarantine is not mandatory either) And I have been tested both there and back (3x in total). I have to tell you that this was a pretty pricey trip, because of the very expensive corona tests. The shared apartment, the crew airline tickets (IPB) and everything around it were not even that expensive.

Outfit | Azur

| Reageer

Hellooooo, welcome back to my blog, or welcome if you’re new! To get straight to the point; I think I haven’t worn this dress for an hour in the heat of Zakynthos. I had to take pictures of this cool outfit. I’ve had this dress hanging at home for at least one or a one and a half years, and I really wanted to photograph it on vacation. All outfits on my blog are also complete outfits that I actually wear and have worn on a trip. But I wore this purely for the photo because I no longer had the opportunity on vacation to wear it for dinner. I did intend to wear it when Iris and I went out to dinner, so I would honestly wear it too! But I didn’t have the chance because of our busy schedule in Greece. We didn’t come back to the hotel in between to change. So it was on and off with this nice outfit unfortunately. And oh, there are a lot of Zakynthos posts coming up! And the Dubai post is still on its way, haha! I’m excited to take you with me on the rest of my 4-day Zakynthos adventure. [Lees meer…]

Croatia Travel diary | 3 day trip to Split

| 1 Reactie

At the beginning of this month, I went on a short trip to Split in Croatia. The country started to light up to me more and more, so I decided to take a short trip with a friend. The schedule was 4 days, but due to certain circumstances I unfortunately couldn’t get time off. It turned into 3 days last minute. Anyway, it was great! And that’s why I like to share my travel diary with recommendations with you.
