This was officially my shortest trip to Mexico ever — just 5 nights over the span of 6.5 days. And yet… it felt like coming home. I know what you’re thinking: “You flew across the world for just a few days?” But for me, Mexico isn’t just a destination. It’s a feeling. A memory. A part of me. [Lees meer…]
Hi everyone! This look is from last month when my good friend Demi came to Amsterdam for a day on her Emirates layover. It was so much fun to see her, and even though she lives in Dubai and I live in the Netherlands – we still see each other regularly every x amount of months. That day we went to lunch together at the ‘nine streets’ at a place called Pluk Amsterdam – great recommendation! Afterwards we walked around together and took some nice pictures. If you are looking for a nice place in Amsterdam, I definitely recommend the ‘negen straatjes’!
When I found out that, due to the new organization and my age, I had one last chance to compete in Miss Universe Netherlands (Miss Universe Noord-Brabant), I knew I had to take it. After two incredibly challenging years, I had promised myself that 2025 would be the year I took the leap—grabbing every opportunity that brings me closer to my dreams and to change my life. What made this competition extra special was that I once again achieved a milestone. I became the first-ever active Dutch flight attendant to compete as a finalist for an international beauty pageant crown—and in 2020/2021, I did the same at the Dutch Miss World. As the only and first active flight attendant (in the Netherlands and at my airline) to accomplish this, I proudly broke barriers in the industry, paving the way for those who may follow in my footsteps. I am officially the first Miss and Stewardess in the Netherlands.[Lees meer…]

At the time of my stay, I happened to be the only guest, which meant I spent a lot of time with Rodrigo, Diana, her husband, and their kids, practicing some Spanish with them. Watching the stars from the beach every night was one of the most special moments of my stay.[Lees meer…]
Hola everyone! This is already my sixth solo trip to Mexico, and yet this country continues to captivate me in ways that are hard to describe. The first time I came here in 2022, I instantly fell in love. Since then, I’ve returned time and time again, and now I’m embarking on another Mexican adventure. The last time I stayed here for such a long period was in 2022. Back then, I spent over 3.5 weeks, but for a different reason—I was with someone from Mexico. From that moment on, everything changed. My trips after that were solo, but never truly alone, as over the years, I’ve made incredible friends here. And even after six visits, this country still feels magical. [Lees meer…]
Hey everyone! This outfit was definitely my favorite look during my last trip to Mexico, and I even have it in coral red. It gave me major Princess Jasmine vibes, and I got that comment from people a lot! My color palette is a ‘bright spring,’ so bright colors like this one suit me perfectly. I love pairing them with shades like hot pink, orange, red, yellow, and green – and you’ll often see these colors in my outfits. [Lees meer…]
Last week, I returned from my sixth trip to Mexico, and what a special experience it was once again! Tulum remains my favorite destination, a place that continuously captures my heart. This time, I want to share one of my all-time favorite spots: Pancho Villa. [Lees meer…]
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. [Lees meer…]
