Special (Outfit) Shoot | Luz

30/12/2025 | Reageer

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…]

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.

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…]

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.

Special (outfit) shoot | Vesica

10/05/2025 | Reageer

This special shoot took place at the magical Vesica Cenote — a hidden gem in the jungle where water, light, and stillness come together. I felt deeply connected to myself and nature in this place. I’m wearing a beautiful bikini from Berlook, gifted to me through a lovely collaboration. I’m not posting this as a formal portfolio shoot, but more as a look, a feeling, a captured moment.

I almost gave up during the first hour of this volcano hike, but what I saw at the top changed everything 🌋 90 second vlog! ⏰

One of the hardest yet most rewarding things I’ve ever done while traveling.
A few weeks ago, I hiked a volcano, and it pushed me far outside my comfort zone, physically and mentally.

We started the day slow, with breakfast in beautiful Antigua, before being transported to the headquarters to gear up and mentally prepare. The first hour was brutal: steep, cold, and way less oxygen. I was close to quitting. But with lots of breaks, support from the group, and a porter for my backpack, it slowly got better.

This hike is no joke. Bring plenty of water, snacks, layers, walking sticks, and altitude pills; the climate and altitude differences really test you. At basecamp there was no water or electricity, so you truly go back to basics. Cold nights, thin air, and warm cacao shared with people from all around the world after a 4–5 hour climb.

I was completely exhausted, so the only extra hike I did was a short 20-minute climb to the viewpoint, and it was more than worth it. Seeing the volcano erupt every 10 minutes was unreal. One of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life. Even at night, waking up in our shared cabin, we could see it glowing in the dark.

The next morning, after coffee and breakfast, we started the descent. About 2.5 hours down - fast, music in my ears, and honestly… pure fun.

This hike reminded me that the hardest paths often lead to the most unforgettable moments.

Would you try this? 🌋✨
Let me know in the comments.

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks.

2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 

2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. 

I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much)

But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. 

I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞

May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿

(Swipe and read) This took me hours to create today ⏰ - 2025 in monthly flashbacks. 2025 was a year of growth, a year where I told myself after a big setback in 2024, to do everything I love. And even though it did not give me the results I wished for. I am proud of the things I did and those who I met along the way. 2025 was a year that looks perfect on the instagram feed (and nothing I post is fake!) - but never forget instagram is a highlight reel. Beyond a lot of beautiful highlights, there were a lot of equally deep lows. I am far from where I want to be in life. I am still not out of a very toxic environment, I still don’t have my dreamjob, and I still live with my parents - single (which I enjoy very much) But one day it will reveal why life happened this way. Setbacks are often stepping stones for bigger things coming. I learned that the environments I was in, are not the ones I should be in. Pageantry and carreer wise - it opened my eyes in how hard it is to fight a system which is politic and not made to be beaten. I deserve to thrive in an environment with people that appreciate authenticity, people are respectful to each other and want to see each other win, instead of trying to destroy everything that mirrors their inner insecurities 🪞 May 2026 - a Leo year ♌️ - bring the change I am praying for. 🧿 . . . . #stewardess #flightattendant #cabincrew #cabinattendant #pageantqueen #guatemala #antigua #model #missnetherlandsfinalist #beautypageant #travelblogger #solotravel #solotravelblog #femaletravel

Most incredible moment of 2025, and actually one of the most incredible of my life. Hiking the Acatenago volcano in Guatemala was one of the most challenging things I have ever done in my life, but the reward of pushing my own limits felt unreal. This climb and activity was on top of my bucketlist and for sure one of the most rewarding things of the year! 🌋

80 second solo travel vlog of Lake Atitlan in Guatemala - I had an incredible 3 night stay at @freecerveza - the best place to stay if you search for a social place around Lake Atitlan. 🇬🇹

Waking up to volcanoes on the horizon, vibrant villages by the water, and mist slowly rising from the lake… was pure magic 🌋

Every boat ride felt like a dream, every sunset a reminder to slow down. Guatemala surprised me, but Atitlán left a mark on my soul. 🌋💙

Missing my morning coffee’s in Mexico ☕️ One thing I love very much about Tulum - is the great amount of good brunch and coffee places. A lot of people think Tulum only exists of the city centre ‘Pueblo’, Tulum Beach and the hotel zone. While there are so many more places to explore like La Veleta and Aldea Zama - where you can find some of the cutest spots in town.
