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’!

Beauty Pageant Diary | Finalist at Miss Universe Netherlands (Noord-Brabant)

01/03/2025 | Reageer

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…]

Mexico travel diary | 6th (Partial) Solo trip of 3 weeks to Mexico – part 2

21/02/2025 | Reageer

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…]

Mexico travel diary | 6th (Partial) Solo trip of 3 weeks to Mexico – part 1

17/02/2025 | Reageer

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…]

Outfit | Jasmine

18/12/2024 | Reageer

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.

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. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Louvre

14/11/2024 | Reageer

Hi everyone! I bought this bandage dress in 2018, from one of my very first stewardess salaries I remember. I always wanted a dress that reminded me of Margot Robbie’s blue dress in The Wolf of Wall Street, and I thought this one came close at the time. By the way, I don’t have any pictures of the back, but the back is a corset. The store where I bought it is unfortunately bankrupt. I have to admit that it is not a dress that you can wear comfortably all day.

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? 👇
