Hi everyone! For the first time in 4 years, I had an airline layover abroad. So far, in 6 years as a flight attendant, I have only stayed abroad twice for work (I don’t count Brussels). Many people think that all the travelling, as seen on my Instagram – is travelling as a flight attendant. The trips I post are trips that I mainly do because of the discount I get on tickets, but not for work. And secretly, I think staying abroad is the best part of flying – so it was great that it was on my roster for once. By the way, I crossed my 20th country off my list! I do not include the destinations that I only fly to/open for work, so 18 of the 20 countries are countries that I have not visited for work. [Lees meer…]
Last week I returned from Florianópolis – Brazil. Actually, immediately after the trip I became very ill. So sick that I checked with the doctor. I haven’t been as sick as I was last week in years. Apparently I had already developed stomach flu in Brazil, which manifested itself in the Netherlands. Fortunately, I have now almost recovered. Just in time for the holidays! I am very much looking forward to taking you along in my stories about Floripa soon. An incredibly safe, clean, fun and adventurous landscape in Brazil. I took the photos of this outfit around the Selina where I stayed for a few days. I also wore this nice outfit a few times in Tulum last year, but I only now took the time to take enough nice photos for an outfit post. [Lees meer…]
I received this dress as a gift from The Pretty Dress Company – a brand that I love working with for over two years already. The dresses are timeless, of good quality and beautiful for many occasions. Plus, they’re made and designed in England. I mainly wear Size 8 – EU 36 from this lovely British brand. The price of the dresses (separate from sale) varies from 150 to 285 euros per dress. [Lees meer…]
Earlier this month, I went to visit one of my best friends in Valencia. At that moment it was the 4th time that I visit Valencia. I have been thinking about moving to Valencia for years, because it is easier as a flight attendant, and I am still in the Netherlands a lot at that point. But let’s see what the future brings! I will soon tell you about this and my 2022 trip to Valencia in a new blog. In those travel diaries, you will also find my tips about the destination. [Lees meer…]
Hi everyone! This beautiful place is Parque Lage in Rio de Janeiro. I thought this place was definitely worth a visit, although you do have to queue if you want a photo by the water. Aline and I took most of the photos on the top floor. You must have bought something in the souvenir shop to gain access to the roof – by the way. [Lees meer…]
I love Lavish Alice so much! Unfortunately, not a single item in my huge wardrobe of their items is a collaboration. I have been loyally buying items from them for over 4 years, and mainly at a discount, on sale or via vinted! I also got this beauty in the sale. Since the weather was going to be nice in Brussels during my layover, I decided to pack it! Never miss a chance to dress nicely, right? :-). By the way, I was finally – for the 6th time in 6 years as a flight attendant – on a layover. So far I have been to Groningen once, Dubai once and Brussels 4 times, including these 3 days.

Hi everyone! In between all the travel posts, a new outfit post. This time again in the Netherlands! These photos were taken in Amsterdam, I had my Turkish aunt visiting with her best friend, and they wanted to discover Amsterdam with me. It’s been 4 years since I visited her in Istanbul! So it was nice to see them both again. For those who didn’t know, I am 1/4th Turkish on my father’s side and 3/4th Dutch. [Lees meer…]
Hi everyone! After many travel posts finally another outfit post at my trusted place in my hometown. Jeremy, my regular photographer and good friend has been busy so I haven’t been able to shoot many outfits unfortunately. This super cool outfit was sponsored by Meahdore. A Dutch brand new webshop with classy clothing. I really liked this set, and I also wanted to have it. I can also combine the pants with many things. In winter, I can wear this set with a turtleneck top and pantyhose, and in summer as in these posts or with a nice blouse for example. [Lees meer…]
I thought this outfit was perfect for Croatia. I bought this super cute dress in the sale at Lof Boutique. I’m wearing a size S and I’m really sold! This outfit would be even cooler with a nice pair of red heels, but I refuse to do an entire city walk in stiletto heels from now on. That is also why I often go for block heels during my travels. This way you still wear heels, but comfortably and so that you don’t die of pain at the end of the day. [Lees meer…]
