Outfit | Madrid

07/11/2025 | Reageer

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…]

Outfit | Lemon

11/08/2025 | Reageer

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.

Italy travel diary | 4 day Friend visit in Rome

23/07/2025 | Reageer

Hi everyone! Earlier this month, I went on a spontaneous trip to Rome with my dear friend Aline. We met back in 2022 during my second trip to Mexico — a deeply emotional journey that turned out to be one of the most transformative experiences of my life. Meeting Aline at such a meaningful moment instantly created a deep bond between us. Ever since, we’ve stayed incredibly close. Even though she’s originally from Brazil, I honestly see her more often than some of my friends in the Netherlands. We’ve reunited in Mexico twice this year, I visited her in Florianópolis, and now… in Rome. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Rome

22/07/2025 | Reageer

Hi everyone. This outfit post is extra special to me, because it was taken at the fourth world wonder I’ve checked off my list: the Colosseum in Rome. A place that radiates power, history, and beauty. I feel incredibly grateful to have visited four world wonders in just three years – something only a small part of the world’s population ever experiences. And that makes me pause and truly appreciate it. [Lees meer…]

Below you’ll find a heartfelt summary of my experience, along with some of my favorite photo highlights that capture the magic, growth, and power of this adventure. Let’s take it from the sky… to the GRAND. [Lees meer…]

Hi loves, It’s been a little while since my last blog post. Medellín is still waiting behind the scenes (I promise it’s coming!), but first I wanted to share a little life update. Since a while, I’m not posting travel content as regularly — because I’m fully focusing on something very special: Miss Grand Netherlands.

No one is more alive than the girl making up for the years she lost in survival mode. ✨

I turned 30 knowing exactly what I want from life - I’m just not there yet. I was there years ago, but the bar changed. 

I’ve worked since I was 21, my dream job at that time, but haven’t landed my long-haul dream yet. I’ve never had the long, safe love I want. I still live at home during a housing crisis.

And yes, my Instagram is a highlight reel. Every beautiful moment I share is real - but so are the parts you don’t see.

People sometimes tell me not to share the struggles because “people enjoy seeing you fail.” But those people occupy so little space in my mind that I genuinely forget they exist.

I’d rather be real.

So while I’m building the life I actually want, I’m not waiting to start living. I travel the world alone, chase experiences, meet people, create, dream and collect memories along the way.

I know where I want to go. I’m just not there yet.
And I refuse to call the journey there a failure. 🤍🌎

Embracing Authenticity | Defending Truth on my Miss World (Netherlands) journey in 2021, my core values and mission

Dutch version below – Hello everyone, I would like to share my truth, vision, and story with all of you, including the beliefs I stand for.
