Despite the presence of seaweed, Tulum remains an enchanting destination to explore. Although seaweed sometimes washes along the coastline, this does not detract from the natural beauty of the beaches and crystal clear waters. Even with this natural challenge, Tulum remains a paradise worth exploring. Soon I will tell you more about my recent 5th trip to Mexico. [Lees meer…]

In Tulum, amidst the sun-drenched beaches and lush jungles, I love embracing the relaxed elegance of Tulum style with my favorite outfits. From airy maxi dresses to flowy silhouettes, each choice feels like an extension of the natural beauty surrounding me. Here, where every day feels like an endless summer dream, I find my ultimate style paradise. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! I returned from the trip shown in the photos on the 26th. I traveled to Jordan last minute with an Emirates friend. I was actually going to leave back to Mexico on the same day as I flew to Amman, but due to personal circumstances I unfortunately decided not to go on the trip. When Demi – the Emirates friend in question – and I spent hours on the phone – we decided to fly to Jordan last minute. We both really wanted to go to Petra, which would be my 3rd of the 7 wonders of the world. I made a huge mistake about the climate there and took with me the outfits – such as this dress – that I had originally bought for my return to Mexico. The outfits I brought with me were way too cold and in my own opinion not very neat during Ramadan in the country, so I combined my outfits with shawls or kimonos. The way I wear the dress was only for the photos, because I wore a shawl over my upper body before and after. I wear it like in these pictures during trips to sunny places such as Mexico.

Mexico travel diary (Extra long) | Friend reunion in Tulum & Playa del Carmen – part 2

01/03/2024 | Reageer

Hi everyone! Welcome to the second part of my travel diary! In this part, I will mainly share with you my days in Tulum, and a few days in Playa del Carmen. My travel diaries are a personal diary and travel portfolio to read for you and for myself to read back and remember everything better. Once again, I would like to share that due to personal circumstances, I kept certain things personal and did not write them in my travel diary. Some memories are for the heart only, too personal or too emotional to share with the world online. This is the case in a few past travel diaries. In this travel diary, I will share my tips and experiences with you from my last trip, I hope you enjoy reading this! Under the tab ‘Travel – Mexico’ you can find all of my previous Mexico trips.

Mexico travel diary (Extra long) | Friend reunion in Tulum & Playa del Carmen – part 1

27/02/2024 | Reageer

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another travel diary. I’ve been catching up a lot with my blogging because I didn’t want to be too far behind with my travels and uploads. In this travel post, I am going to share all my experiences from last trip. I would like to say that this trip was the best of all 4 trips to Mexico. That’s why I can’t wait to share my tips and experiences with you. Mexico has become my favorite travel destination after visiting 20 countries. What used to be Japan is now Mexico – and years ago I really didn’t expect that I could love a country almost more than Japan. Mexico is an amazing country for solo travel, delicious food, beautiful nature, meeting international people, working remote and a rich culture. No day of my trip is the same! When I first came to Mexico in May 2022 without expectations, I did not expect that I would be there at least 4 times in just over 1.5 years! Are you reading this story along? First of all, I would like to say that due to personal reasons, I have kept certain things personal and have not written them in my travel diary. Some memories are only for the heart, too personal or too emotional to share online with the world  ♥ [Lees meer…]

I have worn this jumpsuit dozens of times for years – in Outfit Puerto I also wear it in a different way. I think this outfit is super suitable for Tulum, the gold accessories complete it in my opinion. By the way, this is my last Tulum outfit post from this past trip. In any case, there will be 1-2 more travel diaries online from this trip and a travel diary soon from my 2nd foreign layover – Hurgada. I can’t wait to take you along in my travel stories!

Hi everyone! I have had this super cute dress for almost 3 years – but unfortunately it has often hung in the closet because I didn’t have many occasions to wear it. This beautiful dress from Diva Catwalk in size M often went with me in my suitcase, but was often too warm to wear. This time the climate in Tulum was a lot cooler than the normal seasons I go, so I finally had the chance to wear it now. The dress gives me the same idea of the iconic dress of Margot Robbie (Naomi) in The Wolf of Wallstreet. I liked her style in that film so much for years that I wanted to have some of the same looks. The photos were again, taken at Meteora – who I often work with. I received this dress in 2021/22 as a collaboration with Diva Catwalk. In case you want to buy the same dress, it is now hugely discounted! [Lees meer…]

Jewellery Haul | Personalized Finaste jewelry

14/02/2024 | Reageer

Hi everyone! This time, a special post. I have a super fun collaboration with Finaste! I regularly buy items from this beautiful jewelry brand – so this time a nice collaboration with them. I chose from the following items in this post – linked at the bottom – because I like luxury/delicate jewelry, and not too many heavy details. These beautiful items are timeless and scream luxury – which I really like. In addition to the luxurious appearance of these beautiful items, the prices are very competitive. I have to say that my preference is often pearls and gold, as this creates a very classy look and suits my skintone best. I’m not into rose, bronze or silver jewelry – only gold and white gold. Of course, Finaste has various colors of jewelry that you can choose from. [Lees meer…]

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

People see the gowns, the crowns, the photos and the stage.

What they don’t see are the early mornings, the self-doubt, the courage it takes to keep showing up, and the growth that happens long after the spotlight fades.

My twenties taught me that beauty competitions were never really about beauty.

They were about finding my voice.
About learning confidence.
About standing on a stage when I was terrified.
About representing causes I care about.
About inspiring others to embrace who they are.

I had the honor of competing in:

✨ Miss World
✨ Miss Universe
✨ Miss Grand International
✨ Miss Cosmo
✨ Miss International (selected to represent the Netherlands internationally, later cancelled due to COVID)

The titles were never the biggest reward.

The friendships, lessons, resilience, opportunities, and the woman I became along the way will always mean more than any crown ever could.

To the younger version of me who dreamed of standing on those stages: we did it. 💫

Gone (solo) travelling 😜

One day they’ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, you’ll be gone.

What’s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?

One day I realized:

I wasn’t afraid of being and travelling alone.

I was afraid of losing my life while waiting for someone else.

So I booked the flight. ✈️

What’s something you’ve been waiting for?

Based on facts 🌴✈️ Can you relate?

"What do you like to do for fun?"

Leave the country.

New places, new people, new stories.
Every single time.

At what point does it stop being a hobby and become a personality trait? 😂

Guatemala, one of the most heartwarming places I’ve experienced so far. A destination that still crosses my mind almost daily. And now in my top 5 favorites.

After being lucky enough to solo travel to so many beautiful places around the world, Guatemala instantly became one of the places that touched me the most.

The people, the atmosphere, the volcanoes, Lake Atitlán, the coffee, the food, UNESCO Antigua… this country has a soul that is difficult to describe unless you’ve experienced it yourself.

I met beautiful humans I still speak to from time to time, and I’m grateful to now call some incredible Guatemalans my friends.

I travelled here with my new camera, and I’m so thankful I was able to capture parts of this beautiful country through my own eyes, while also collaborating with amazing companies along the way.

I remember my eyes being teary while being on a boat at Lake Atitlan, and the moment I saw the Volcano erupt during the hike - one of the most challenging things I have ever done. 

Some places impress you.
Others stay with you.
Guatemala did both. 🌋🇬🇹

Pictures by me using my Sony Alpha A6100 + portrait lens, and @luzd_23 📸

Gracias @freecerveza for the awesome stay! & @lavatrails.gt for the AMAZING hike!

Wait for the end! ✈️ 
Some women wait for love to start living.
I booked the ticket anyway. 

Some of the most beautiful moments of my life happened because I stopped waiting, for permission, for certainty, for someone to come with me.

Solo travelling taught me that freedom can be lonely sometimes, but also deeply empowering. It gave me sunsets in countries I once only dreamed about, strangers that became memories, confidence I never learned at home, and versions of myself I would’ve never met if I stayed safe.

I may not have everything figured out yet, but I’ve lived. Deeply. Wildly. Internationally.
And honestly? That already makes me rich in life.

I know it’s not a possibility for every woman in the world to do this. Something travel also showed me over and over again.
