This travel diary is a very special and personal one,Β the title says Solo, but I was not alone. I was very curious about my partial ‘roots’ and lovely family members that I never or haven’t seen in the last 20 years. I went to see them on my own in Istanbul. After the sudden death of my grandfather in early 2019, which I was actually going to see in real life for the first time this year (we had facetime contact every now and then, telephone contact and he spoke Dutch), I decided to fly to Istanbul during my vacation, less than half a day after I came back from Valencia, from Eindhoven airport.

At the end of last month I went to Valencia for the second time. This beautiful city remains a nice hotspot in my eyes for sea, city, shopping and delicious food. I went there with a colleague. We arrived halfway through the afternoon and went there by Standby seats (flying for a reduced price for flight attendants). The first day was relaxed. After the flight we decided to change clothes and head for the boulevard to eat and drink for a long time. [Lees meer…]
This is the outfit of the last day in Valencia. I really liked this lace dress for this summer. I also often saw it in all kinds of colors. I often combine this dress with my most beautiful black bag, black sandal heels and Josh V earrings. Next week I will go to the next destination: Lisbon! [Lees meer…]
I wore this outfit on the first day in Valencia. It was very easy to change this from an autumn outfit to a summer outfit. You might have seen this black dress in so many outfit posts, because it can be worn in so many ways! The Furla bag makes it a little more summery. [Lees meer…]
I have already been back for 3 days from a whole week of traveling. First I went to Valencia for 3 days, where I went last year as well – and I went to Istanbul for 4 days after that to visit my aunts. I bought this dress in the sale of Godly – great for a city trip like this. Travel posts soon! [Lees meer…]
Earlier this month, I went on an ‘if place available’ trip with a friend from work. We went to Seville from Eindhoven. This was also my first trip of this year. After I had worked that day myself, I had changed my outfit, scored my suitcase and left with Tess. After a nice flight with nice crew, we went by taxi to the city center of Seville. Due to the enormously crowded ‘holy week’ (a week of festivities, which we knew little about at the time), [Lees meer…]
Yesterday evening, I came back from a 4 day city trip with a friend from work. We had days off at the same time, so we decided to go on a city trip to Seville together. We chose really good days in terms of weather, because it was certainly around 27 degrees, so that meant: summer dresses! These heels are ideal for city trips and I can walk large distances with them. [Lees meer…]
This is a bonus outfit post from my trip to Japan. Although I said that I would not upload this outfit anymore (exept in the actual posts about the trip), I decided to upload this too cute dress anyways. This cute dress has traveled half the world. I wore it both in Valencia and in Tokyo (even though it was not even 2 weeks later). My travel outfits often consist of the combination sneakers-watch-dress-bag, and I often repeat that as you can see in other posts. This location is actually literally next to my hostel in Shibuya. Still shot this one anyways while I had a jetlag face, haha. [Lees meer…]
During my last days in Japan I did not take many pictures. I had done almost everything I wanted to do. The 7th day of my Tokyo trip, my new Swedish and French travel friends suggested to join them to go running around 6 in the morning. I was quite tired, so I refused and went to Tokyo tower later, because I wanted to see it up close. It was nice and sunny, so I walked through Tokyo with a happy and satisfied feeling. [Lees meer…]
