This post is the last outfit post I upload from Colombia. With my next trip coming up, I try to put all my travel posts online as soon as possible. I have worn this outfit quite a few times while traveling there, which is why they are not the same in every photo. I think this really is in the top 5 of my favorite travel outfits from this year. The end of the year is not so far from now, but I still have 3 beautiful trips planned. For the 4th time to Lisbon, 3rd time to Valencia and for the second time to Mexico. Very excited! These photos were taken at hotel Movich rooftop and in the historic center of Cartagena. [Lees meer…]

In the meantime I have not even been back for 10 days from my beautiful Colombia trip. I did this outfit shoot together with Karmen Cartagena – this is also really my favorite outfit from Cartagena and I think it fits perfectly with this place. These photos were taken in beautiful Getsemani. If you are looking for a nice photographer during your trip to Cartagena, I highly recommend her. I did this shoot during my last day in Cartagena. I wanted to have guaranteed good photos of my solo trip. I got about 20% off the original price on this shoot, as a partial collaboration. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Cartagena

24/09/2022 | Reageer

This outfit is from my first full day in Cartagena. It was so much fun! This day I went to explore Getsemani with people I met in my hostel. This trip was so very nice. It was even better than my expectations! I have met countless wonderful people from all over the world, all with their own beautiful story. I can’t wait to see some of them again one day somewhere in the world. The people you get to know often make the journey. For those who regularly ask – the photos are taken by other solo travelers I get to know and give some instructions about my camera. [Lees meer…]

The moment I post this, I have been back from Colombia for almost a day. I also had a new travel friend take these photos in the beautiful streets of Getsemani – Colombia. During my trip to Mexico, I was inspired by stories from other travelers to take a trip to Colombia. This is now also my 10th solo trip! I can’t wait to take you in many posts about this beautiful destination soon. I went all alone, so no group tour, no organized tour – no! In advance, I only booked the (standby) flights and hostels. Sometimes I even leave a few days open to see at which locations I would like to spend the nights and visit later. I received this nice skort during a previous collaboration with Tess V. In Colombia, many places are very colorful, so I like to show off the colors in my outfits! [Lees meer…]

I recently had another super fun collaboration with Tess V. I chose these two super nice items from a range of items and I’m really happy with them! This pair of ‘skorts’ goes straight into my suitcase for my next trip and goes with everything. I really love wearing bright colors. This blouse is quite timeless and can be worn in many ways. I’m going on vacation in a week from now. I hope I can get on the flight and I’m really looking forward to it. Can’t wait to take you on my next travel adventures! I’ve been selecting some outfits for days haha. The last few days have also been really fun. I’ve had a lot of great flights with many special and new people and had drinks with a large group until late into the night. I hope there will be many more fun days like the past few days!

Hi everyone! This outfit is from a few weeks ago. This jumpsuit is really fantastic. Unfortunately, I don’t often have the opportunity to wear my favorite outfits lately. Due to the busy summer season, I wear my uniform at least 5 days a week, and I often take it easy at home during 2-3 days off. I’ve been buying and receiving (in terms of collaborations) a lot of new items lately. Little time to wear it unfortunately, but oh so nice! I hope that during the next winter season, all the cheerful colors will be carried on. Plus, I’m planning to make a lot of fun trips for the rest of this year, which all new outfits are super handy for! I got this cool 70’s look jumpsuit from a collaboration with NA-KD. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Marbella

Hi everyone! I’ve been traveling a lot lately haha. The borders are open again since quite some time already and I’m going for it. Last week I went to Marbella for 3 days. Joelle, a good friend of mine, immigrated to Marbella. The reason that I am able to travel a lot is partly due to the fact that I use the so-called ´if place available´ tickets. I am also very grateful that this is possible! When I saw this dress, I bought it right away! Perfect for summer and the colors are very nice. Next month I plan on going to Lisbon for 3 days, and the month after to Cartagena (if that will continue). A lot of travel posts are coming up! I am curious and very excited about what is about to come! [Lees meer…]

This beautiful white dress is from Diva Catwalk. I love their beautiful, timeless dresses and own countless of them. The great thing about their dresses is that they can be worn for years, and they fit perfectly around the body. I own all dresses in size M and some in S. I think a white dress like this is very suitable for visiting a wedding, business appointment but also if you want to look neat for a daily activity. The accessories of this outfit are from Gucci, except for the earrings and shoes. If you are interested in this dress, the model is called Tessa. [Lees meer…]

It changed my life.

Not because of the beaches, the sunsets, or the endless tacos.

Mexico taught me that life can be bigger than the version I was settling for.

It was the first place that showed me freedom doesn’t come from having everything figured out, it comes from trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable adventures, confidence I didn’t know I had, and the courage to build a life that feels like mine.

I arrived as someone looking for a holiday.

I left with a completely different perspective on what was possible.

And honestly?

A part of me never really came back. 🇲🇽✨

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?

Beautiful villa @villa_hunab_ku 🌴

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? 😂

Mini cut from last weekend in Marbella

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.

Nevertheless, I want to […]
