Guatemala Travel Diary | Solo trip to Guatemala (Antigua)

05/01/2026 | 1 Reactie

Hi everyone 🤍Welcome back to a new travel diary. This time I’m taking you with me to a destination that had been high on my list for a very long time: Guatemala. And honestly? Now that I’ve been there, I don’t understand why it took me so long. Antigua is also a UNESCO World Heritage city, and you really feel that when you’re there. The colorful colonial buildings, cobblestone streets, historic churches, and the surrounding volcanoes give the city a timeless atmosphere, as if the past and present exist side by side. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, look around, and really take it all in. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! About a month ago, I visited Guatemala, a place that had been high on my list for a very long time. During my annual longer stay in Mexico, I decided to fly from Cancún to Guatemala for about eight days. After all, it’s only a 1 hour and 15 minute flight. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! Less than 72 hours ago, I returned from 30 days in Mexico and Guatemala – I’m so grateful that I was able to offer this to myself and experience it. These two beautiful destinations have taught me so much, given me so much, and left me with an immense sense of gratitude. That’s why I’m so excited to share my new (solo) travel diaries soon, plus a travel diary from before this wonderful, very recent trip. [Lees meer…]

You’d almost think I’m in Rome in these photos, but this is a lovely spot in beautiful Valencia! Besides my visit to Madrid, I went to Valencia for the 5th (!) time last week. I have friends living here and would love to live there someday. Even now, in early November, it was still above 20 degrees Celsius – so I could still go barefoot! I recently put this outfit together in the middle of the night on a whim, haha, and packed it immediately. I bought this blazer at Zara in 2021 or 2022, and I bought this outfit last summer along with these heels. I do have this amazing new bag, though. What do you think? The photos were taken by my dear Brazilian friend Tay, who I was visiting. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! This week I went on a trip to Madrid, a place that had been calling me for a long time and was high on my list. I started the trip in Valencia, visiting a nearby village because one of my best travel friends, Mathilde, recently moved there with her boyfriend. The trip was fun, but also challenging. I traveled long distances every day to see everyone, plus because of a friend in South America who I let go of at a film festival (no gatekeeping here, lol) – but despite that, I had a great trip. As a surprise, another friend of mine was in the city, and I met some new, fun people in Madrid. I can’t wait to tell you more about it soon! [Lees meer…]

Being a stewardess | Layover in Pisa

12/10/2025 | Reageer

Lately, I’ve been taking a bit more time for myself. My mind has been busy with so many things, and as a result, I’ve been less active on social media. But a few weeks ago, something rare happened — I got to go on a work trip! At my airline, we almost never stay overnight at destinations. Most of my travels are done using staff tickets during my free time, so whenever I actually get to stay somewhere, I try to make the most of it. [Lees meer…]

Hungary travel diary | 3 day solo trip to Budapest

17/09/2025 | Reageer

Welcome back to a new travel post! It’s been a while since my last update, but more are coming soon. I’m traveling a bit less this year, which makes the trips I do take feel even more special. Budapest had been high on my list for ages. I’d heard it’s one of the best solo travel destinations – safe, fun, and full of things to explore – and everyone I knew who’d been there had nothing but good things to say. So when I found a one-way ticket from Eindhoven Airport for just €55, I couldn’t resist. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! I’m seeing yellow a lot this season, and I love it! I received this super cool dress from The Pretty Dress Company. I often collaborate with them and have received so many lovely things from them. What I love is that these dresses are all handmade in England, just like another brand I work with. The dresses are all timeless, so I’ll practically still have them in my wardrobe in 10 years. I think it’s truly one of the most fun colors to wear! How about you?

A tribute to timeless elegance: my favorite dress from The Pretty Dress Company. Hi everyone! If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ve probably seen my collaborations with The Pretty Dress Company. And honestly, I keep coming back to them for a reason. Their designs are the definition of timeless – the kind of pieces you’ll treasure in your wardrobe for years.

One decision changed the entire direction of my life..

What started as one scary solo trip became a completely different life. 🌍✨

Nine years ago, I had every excuse not to go.

“What if I’m lonely?”
“What if something happens?”
“What if I’m not brave enough?”

Now I’ve explored dozens of countries on my own, met incredible people from all over the world, discovered places I never knew existed, and most importantly… I discovered a version of myself I never would have met if I had stayed home.

Solo travel isn’t about proving you’re independent.

It’s about realizing you’re capable of so much more than you ever imagined.

If my journey encourages even one woman to book that flight she’s been dreaming about, then every adventure has been worth it.

Be the reason another woman believes she can do it too. 🤍

✈️ Would you ever travel solo? Tell me where you’d go first.

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? 🤍

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? 👇
