Japan travel diary | 2019 Solo trip to Japan part 3

03/12/2019 | Reageer

I cropped this last part of my 14 day trip into one post as I haven’t taken many photos in the last few days there. This is day 9 to 14. One of the last days I heard from a KLM flight attendant that my standby travel flight was as good as full, so I booked an extra night in my hostel in Tokyo and converted the KLM IPB flight to a new one day later. This day I went to Kyoto again from Osaka, this time with Yuka. Osaka and Kyoto are not long apart by public transport, I believe half an hour, so no other hostel was needed. Yuka and I have known each other since 2013 and have seen each other in the Netherlands and last year in Japan as well. Today we were going to walk around in a Kimono together and visit the old Geisha neighborhood Gion – highly recommended, because it really is the authentic old Japan as in the many books I had read. Yuka had reserved a complete Kimono makeover as a present, including hair styling and Kimono of your choice (I believe the total package was about 6000-8000¥ or even more for an X number of hours). It was quite special because I got literally dressed and wrapped. It started with a white ‘under kimono’ some special cloths in which I was tied. My shapes were partly tied at the top so that the kimono could fit properly, then the lady fitted me inside of the large Kimono in my favorite color red that I had chosen and the pink glitter Obi.

We started at Yasaka Shrine – in this beautiful area we walked around, from there we would walk through the old streets of Gion. Then we got to the Tō-ji (the big pagoda), where I was approached by a photographer for some cool pictures in my rented Kimono. It was literally a dream come true to be able to wear a real kimono once, especially in Kyoto. After walking around we went for lunch together. We had a lunch set together with Matcha Soba – very tasty and healthy. I think it is great how often you get unlimited green tea with your food in Japan. Then we went to the Sannenzaka steps, where we had visited many shops and I tried a lot of Kyoto delicacies. Our Gion walk ended at the Kyomizu-dera, which had a beautiful view over the autumn trees ‘Koyo’, but unfortunately was under construction itself. After leaving Gion, we had nice matcha ice cream at Nana’s Green Tea before we left for Osaka.

Ik heb dit laatste deel van mijn 14 daagse reis in één post gepropt, omdat ik de laatste paar dagen niet veel foto’s heb gemaakt. Dit is dag 9 t/m 14. Een van de laatste dagen hoorde ik van een KLM stewardess dat mijn vlucht zo goed als vol was, dus heb ik in mijn hostel in Tokyo een extra nacht bijgeboekt en de KLM IPB vlucht omgezet naar een legere één dag later. Deze dag ging ik opnieuw naar Kyoto vanuit Osaka, dit keer samen met Yuka. Osaka en Kyoto liggen overigens met het openbaar vervoer niet lang uit elkaar, ik geloof een half uurtje, dus een ander hostel was niet nodig. Yuka en ik kennen elkaar al sinds 2013 en hebben elkaar zowel in Nederland als vorig jaar in Japan gezien. Vandaag zouden we samen in een Kimono gaan rondlopen en naar de oude Geisha-buurt Gion gaan – enorme aanrader, want het is echt het authentiek oude Japan zoals in de vele boeken die ik had gelezen. Yuka had een complete Kimono make-over gereserveerd als cadeautje, inclusief haarstijling en Kimono naar keuze (Ik geloof dat het totaal pakket zo’n 6000-8000¥ was of zelfs meer voor een X aantal uur). Het was vrij bijzonder want ik werd dus letterlijk aangekleed, ingepakt en afgebonden. Het begon met een witte ‘onderkimono’ een aantal speciale doeken waar ik in werd gebonden. Mijn vormen werden gedeeltelijk aan de bovenkant afgebonden zodat de kimono goed op zijn plek kon vallen, Daarna de grote Kimono in mijn lievelingskleur rood die ik had gekozen en de roze glitter Obi.

We begonnen bij Yasaka Shrine – in deze prachtige omgeving hebben we rondgelopen, om vanaf daar door de oude straten van Gion te gaan wandelen. Vervolgens kwamen we bij Tō-ji (de grote pagode), waar ik door een fotografe was aangesproken voor een paar gave foto’s in mijn gehuurde Kimono. Het was letterlijk een droom die uitkwam om een keer een echte kimono te mogen dragen, en al helemaal in Kyoto. Na een stukje rondlopen zijn we samen gaan lunchen. We hadden samen een lunch set met Matcha Soba – ontzettend lekker en gezond. Ik vind het trouwens top hoe je vaak in Japan onbeperkt groene thee bij je eten ingeschonken krijgt. Daarna zijn we de Sannenzaka steps afgelopen, waar we nog veel winkeltjes hadden bezocht en ik een hoop Kyoto lekkernijen heb geprobeerd. Onze Gion wandeling eindigde we bij de Kyomizu-dera, die een prachtig uitzicht gaf over de herfstbomen ‘Koyo’, maar helaas zelf onder constructie was. Na we Gion hadden verlaten, hadden we bij Nana’s Green Tea een lekker matcha ijsje gegeten voor we terug naar Osaka vertrokken.


After saying goodbye to Yuka, I went back to Osaka to pack for my return trip to Tokyo the day after. I was asked very late in the evening to enjoy my Tokyo hostel (which happened to have the same itinerary and I had seen briefly in both Osaka and Kyoto / as told before) including new people that joined, to the bar for a drink and then very late to eat something in the evening. After a complete round trip by public transport from Temma to Dotonbori – which is normally about 10 minutes and it magically took me over an hour, I found the bar where they were. After a drink we went again to do Yakuniku with my Canadian hostel mate and his new Korean friends. It was very nice, but after dinner I had to catch my last train to Temma. With a satisfied and happy feeling from this Osaka and Kyoto trip, I walked through the lively streets of Osaka on my way to the station.
Na afscheid genomen te hebben van Yuka, ging ik terug naar Osaka om in te gaan pakken voor mijn terugreis de dag erna naar Tokyo. Ik ben erg laat op de avond gevraagd om met mijn Tokyo hostel genootje (Die dus toevallig hetzelfde reisplan had en ik ook kort in zowel Osaka als Kyoto had gezien / wat ik al eerder had verteld) en nieuwe aanhang, naar de bar te gaan voor een drankje en daarna erg laat op de avond wat te gaan eten. Na een complete omreis met het ov vanuit Temma naar Dotonbori – wat normaal zo’n 10 minuten is en ik er magisch genoeg een dik uur over deed, vond ik de bar waar ze waren. Na een drankje zijn we opnieuw Yakuniku gaan doen met mijn Canadese hostelgenootje en zijn nieuwe Koreaanse vrienden. Het was ontzettend gezellig, maar na het eten moest ik gelijk mijn laatste trein naar Temma halen. Met een tevreden en voldaan gevoel van deze Osaka en Kyoto trip, liep ik door de levendige straten van Osaka opweg naar het station.
After another nice trip with the Shinkansen (bullet train), I suddenly had to get off at Tokyo Station and make a detour to Shibuya on my own via Shinjuku because of rail maintenance. After I had gone in the same direction together with some also stranded tourists, I was back in familiar Shibuya. From there I walked with my big suitcase and bag to my standard hostel Wise Owls Shibuya. I have known that way since my first trip by heart. Unfortunately, my internet was blocked because I had been buying data for a big amount of euro’s, so I couldn’t reach anyone or anything, not even Roos until I was in my hostel. Booked an extra night in my hostel right away, thank god that there was a bed available (and even in the same room), because I rebooked my flight from November 19 to November 20 because of an almost full standby flight.

After I unpacked in my hostel and was busy with my finances for a while, Roos asked me how she and her crew could come to Shibuya from Narita. After she figured out how to get there, I chatted with some people in my hostel and left for Roos without internet. The place we planned to meet  – Hachiko statue (typical Tokyo place where people met). Fortunately we met despite no data/wifi and we gave each other a big hug. How nice it was to see my good friend again! Her layover was approved and perfectly timed just like in September, when we saw each other in the Netherlands for a day. After we took a lot of photos on Shibuya crossing together and the crew did their own thing, we went to the famous Don Quijote for some snacks for at home and stuff. In the end we met up again with the crew and we went for a bite to eat at a random Japanese restaurant. It was nice to be with her again, but only for a short amount of time, because she and some of the crew would return to their hotel in Narita early.

Na opnieuw een fijne reis met de Shinkansen (hogesnelheidstrein), moest ik geheel plotseling uitstappen op Tokyo Station en helemaal op eigen houtje via Shinjuku een hele omweg naar Shibuya maken door onderhoud. Na ik samen met een aantal ook gestrande toeristen dezelfde kant op was gegaan, was ik weer in oud vertrouwd Shibuya. Vanaf daar liep ik weer met mijn hele hutkoffer en grote tas naar mijn vaste hostel Wise Owls Shibuya, die hele weg ken ik echt sinds mijn eerste reis uit mijn hoofd. Helaas was mijn internet geblokkeerd omdat ik voor tig euro telkens data had bijgekocht, dus kon ik niks of niemand bereiken, ook Roos niet tot ik in mijn hostel was. In mijn hostel gelijk een nacht bijgeboekt, thank god dat er plek was (en zelfs in dezelfde kamer), omdat ik mijn vlucht van 19 november naar 20 november had om geboekt door een zo goed als volle IPB vlucht.

In mijn hostel had ik mijn spullen uitgepakt, bankzaken geregeld, Roos verteld hoe ze met haar hele crew naar Shibuya kon komen vanaf Narita en gekletst met wat mensen in mijn hostel, voor ik zonder internet naar Roos vertrok. Afgesproken plek – Hachiko statue (typische Tokyo plek waar mensen meetten). Gelukkig troffen we elkaar ondanks geen bereik en gaven we elkaar een dikke knuffel. Wat was het ontzettend fijn om opnieuw mijn goede vriendin te zien. Haar layover was goedgekeurd en ook nog eens perfect getimed net als in September, toen we elkaar een dag in Nederland zagen. Na we samen veel foto’s op Shibuya crossing hadden gemaakt en de crew hun eigen ding gingen doen, gingen wij naar het bekende Don Quijote voor wat snacks en spulletjes voor thuis. Uiteindelijk hadden we opnieuw met de crew afgesproken en zijn we gezamenlijk hapjes gaan eten bij een willekeurig Japans restaurant. Het was fijn weer samen met haar te zijn, maar kort, omdat ze met een deel van de crew terug naar haar hotel in Narita zou vertrekken.


Once back in my hostel it was also a lot of fun with many people staying there, I met Hadas again, a girl from Tel Aviv which is around my age, whom I met in the same hostel one year ago and liked a lot. What a mega coincidence! After a pleasant evening with a large group in the hostel and after buying a lot of food and drinks at the nearest mini supermarket, we agreed to have lunch together the next day and go to vintage shops. Until late we enjoyed had fun with a hostel group in the lobby, laughed, had drinks, ate snacks and listened to music. I came up with the spontaneous idea to have Yakuniku with the whole group tomorrow night somewhere near our hostel and everyone thought that was a super nice idea.

Since I was quite tired of the intense past days where I did a lot of what I wanted to see and do, I did not want to be gone for big amounts of time or to be really busy the last few days (Although I am never traveling from whole schedules anyway). The last few days in my hostel I just wanted to do what I came up with and enjoy some drinks, food and chats with hostel friends. Hadas and I decided to have a healthy lunch somewhere in Shibuya this day. She then wanted to look at vintage shops and asked if I wanted to come along so we went to the Koenji neighborhood – where many vintage / thrift shops can be found. It was a lot of fun and I had scored a dress and top for less than 800 yen in a thrift store. Once in the evening I went to the Korean neighborhood with my Japanese friend Anna and we went to eat Korean. Anna is partly Korean and wanted to let me try Korean BBQ. Then we drank coffee and chatted at Doutor – recommended if you want to drink affordable coffee, because I think lattes in Japan are relatively expensive.

Once back at the hostel again, we were soon with a whole group again. It was great fun again! It was half past two at night when we went looking for Yakuniku nearby, where we enjoyed tasty meat eventually and a bottle of red wine. We had a great time after we went to sleep at a very late time, Hannah joined together with Hadas and her boyfriend too.

Eenmaal terug in mijn hostel was het ook ontzettend gezellig met mijn hostel genoten. Ik ontmoette mega toevallig Hadas opnieuw – een vrouw uit Tel Aviv in de richting van mijn leeftijd, die ik in ditzelfde hostel leerde kennen één jaar terug en waar ik het goed mee kan vinden. Wat een mega toeval! Na een gezellige avond met een grote groep in het hostel en van alles ingekocht te hebben bij de dichtstbijzijnde mini supermarkt, hadden Hadas en ik afgesproken om de volgende dag samen te gaan lunchen en naar vintage winkels te gaan. Tot laat hebben we nog in de lobby met een grote groep hostel genoten gelachen, drankjes gedronken, snacks gegeten en muziek geluisterd. Ik kwam met het spontane idee om morgennacht met de hele groep Yakuniku te gaan eten ergens in de buurt van ons hostel en iedereen vond dat een super leuk idee.

Omdat ik behoorlijk moe was van de intense afgelopen dagen waar ik super veel heb gedaan van wat ik graag wilde zien en doen, wilde ik de laatste dagen niet hele dagen weg zijn of druk zijn (Al ben ik sowieso nooit van hele planningen op reis). De laatste dagen in mijn hostel wilde ik nóg meer gewoon doen wat op mijn pad kwam en met hostel genootjes gezellig drankjes doen, eten en kletsen. Hadas en ik besloten samen ergens in Shibuya gezond te gaan lunchen deze dag. Ze wilde daarna vintage winkeltjes kijken en vroeg of ik mee wilde dus ik ging mee naar het wijkje Koenji – waar veel vintage/thrift winkeltjes te vinden zijn. Het was hartstikke leuk en ik had voor nog geen 800 yen een jurk en topje gescoord in een tweedehands winkel. Eenmaal ‘s-avonds ben ik met mijn Japanse vriendin Anna naar de Koreaanse buurt gegaan en zijn we Koreaans gaan eten. Anna is voor een gedeelte Koreaans en wilde me graag trakteren op Korean Bbq. Daarna hebben we nog koffie gedronken en gekletst bij Doutor – aanrader als je graag betaalbaar koffie wil drinken, omdat ik lattes in Japan relatief duur vind.

Eenmaal weer terug in het hostel, waren we al snel weer met een hele groep. Het was weer ontzettend gezellig! Het was half 2 ‘s-nachts toen we opzoek gingen naar Yakuniku in de buurt, waar we genoten van lekker vlees en een fles rode wijn en we het ontzettend gezellig hadden na we op een enorm laat tijdstip gingen slapen, Hannah ging ook weer gezellig mee en Hadas samen met haar vriend ook.


Left hand side: Hannah from the United States – English hostel guy I didn’t remember the name of – Luca from Argentina.
Right hand side: Me – Hadas from Israel and her boyfriend Ram.

The next day (18-11-2019), I slept until quite late and would meet up with Anna again, to have lunch at Kaila in Shibuya – which I saved the name of years prior to going to Japan. I had an amazing Hawaiian Acai bowl and Acai and milk juice. We spended the entire day together and shopped at Don Quijote again, had coffee at Doutor and diner together as well. In the evening, we had another fun hostel family night with lots of laughter and music.

The final day (19-11-2019), before flying back to the Netherlands, hostel friend Luca, which has joined the hostel music evenings and Yakuniku as well the previous days, invited me to join him for coffee in the morning in Daikanyama and to visit the famous bookshop Tsutaya books there (Daikanyama was by coincidence, still on my wishlist). It took us about 20 minutes by foot from our hostel to get there. We had breakfast at the Starbucks inside of the bookshop. We talked about our lives and how he is originally from Argentina, but lives in Hawaii and doesn’t know how long his travel journey will take and when it will end. After having lunch together, he asked me to join him in case I would miss my flight for some reason because he wanted to visit a new city in Japan – I rejected that, because I really wanted to go back home. I met up with Anna again and we had diner and coffee together in Shinjuku. I asked her if she wanted to meet with my friend Arisa as well – because it would be my final evening in Japan – and she liked the idea (ps. they became friends!). We went to a bar in Kabukicho, had drinks and bites and went to a Karaoke place – yet another thing to cross of my Japan wishlist. We sang All I want for Christmas out loud and had lots of fun. I promised them I would come back to Japan for the 3th time in the near future.

De volgende dag (18-11-2019) sliep ik tot vrij laat en zou ik Anna weer ontmoeten om te lunchen bij Kaila in Shibuya – waar ik de naam van jaren heb bewaard voordat ik naar Japan ging. Ik had een geweldige Hawaiiaanse Acai-bowl en Acai met melk sapje. We brachten de hele dag samen door en winkelden weer bij Don Quijote, dronken opnieuw koffie bij Doutor en aten ook samen. ‘s-avonds hadden we weer een leuke hostel groeps avond met veel gelach en muziek.

De laatste dag (19-11-2019), voordat ik terug zou gaan naar Nederland, nodigde hostelgenoot Luca – die de vorige dagen ook de hostelmuziekavonden en Yakuniku bijwoonde – me uit om met hem koffie te drinken in Daikanyama en de beroemde boekhandel Tsutaya-books te bezoeken (stond ook nog op mijn wenslijst toevallig). Het kostte ons ongeveer 20 minuten lopen van ons hostel om er te komen. We hebben gelunched bij de Starbucks die in de boekwinkel zit. We spraken over onze levens en hoe hij oorspronkelijk uit Argentinië komt, maar in Hawaï woont en niet weet hoe lang zijn reis zal duren en wanneer deze zal eindigen. Na samen te hebben gelunched, vroeg hij me mee te gaan naar een andere stad in Japan morgen mocht ik om een ​​of andere reden mijn vlucht missen – maar dit wees ik af omdat ik niet van plan was om langer te blijven. Ik ontmoette Anna weer en we hebben samen gegeten en koffie gedronken in Shinjuku. Ik vroeg haar of ze ook mijn vriendin Arisa wilde ontmoeten – omdat het mijn laatste avond in Japan zou zijn – en ze vond het een goed idee (ps. Ze werden vriendinnen!). We gingen naar een bar in Kabukicho, dronken en aten wat en gingen naar een Karaoke plek – nog iets anders om over mijn Japan verlanglijst af te strepen. We zongen All I want for Christmas hardop en hadden veel lol. Ik beloofde hen dat ik in de nabije toekomst voor de derde keer terug zou komen naar Japan.

(20-11-2019) The day I would leave. Late yesterday evening a hostel friend from Finland had agreed with me to travel to Narita with the Narita express because our flights wouldn’t leave for very long. After buying chocolates for the crew and breakfast in one of the Family Marts near our hostel, we left. I was full of courage and really looking forward to my IPB flight back, because I love coming home after a trip and I love flying again. Gosh, about 20 seats empty, that should be fine, I thought, until I was told at check-in that I really had to wait up to an hour before the flight to know if I could get on because it was full last minute due to circumstances. Quite scary, maybe I would still have to stay for another day or more – but it all turned out fine when I ran into the KLM crew at the check-in. I had a very nice flight back and nice conversations with the great crew. My parents were waiting at the airport and we drove back to Den Bosch.

Thanks for reading my travel diary! It was a fantastic trip! I met a lot of nice people and had two great IPB flights. Now that I type this, I get that feeling of the past again. I can’t wait to have a nice trip like this again!

(20-11-2019) De dag dat ik zou vertrekken. Gisteren avond laat had een hostel genoot uit Finland met me afgesproken om samen naar Narita met de Narita express te reizen, omdat onze vluchten niet heel lang naar elkaar zouden vertrekken. Na chocolaatjes voor de crew te hebben gekocht en ontbijt in een van de Family Marts in de buurt van ons hostel, vertrokken we. Ik had volle moed en vooral zin in mijn IPB vlucht terug, omdat ik het heerlijk vind om na een reis weer thuis te komen en het heerlijk vind weer lekker te vliegen. Goh, zo’n 20 stoelen leeg, dat moet vast goed komen, dacht ik, tot ik bij de check-in te horen kreeg dat ik echt tot een uur voor de vlucht moest wachten of ik mee kon omdat het wegens omstandigheden last minute vol was geworden. Spannend, misschien alsnog een dagje of meer moeten blijven – maar het kwam uiteindelijk al snel goed toen ik de crew bij de check-in tegen kwam. Ik had een hele fijne vlucht terug en leuke gesprekken met de super gezellige crew. Op de luchthaven stonden mijn ouders te wachten en zijn we naar Den Bosch terug gereden.

Bedankt voor het lezen van mijn travel diary! Het was een fantastische reis! Ik heb super veel leuke mensen ontmoet en twee top IPB vluchten gehad. Nu ik dit typ, krijg ik weer even dat gevoel van toen. Ik kan niet wachten om weer een mooie reis als deze te maken!

POV: You get to stay at your dream villa in Tulum 🌴
Villa Hunab-Ku @villa_hunab_ku 🍃

Imagine having your own dream villa at your favorite place in the world!

This beautiful place has 5 bedrooms. My personal favorite was the Bali master bedroom - which I chose to sleep in - and the Zen bathroom - A Japanese style bathroom with a yoga garden.

Would you stay here with your friends?

(Swipe) The Souls of Guatemala & Mexico Nov/Dec 2025 🪽🐦‍🔥 I’m beyond grateful to have a lot of close and also new friends and acquaintances from around the world and can call Tulum my second home.

If I didn’t go to México on my own back in May 2022, my life would have been completely different. 

I’m extremely grateful (and privileged) to be able to travel the world as a WOMAN on my own. Although I still live with my parents as in my country it’s hard to afford housing as a single person - I count my blessings and use that form of ‘space’ in my favor as a form of freedom.

The more I travel, the more gratitude I preach and feel, but also realize how only a small group of people (mainly women) is able to go out and explore. 

I started solo travelling back in 2017, and after 8 years, I and have a big worldwide group of close friends and lifechanging experiences. 

One of the first things I have learned from travelling is that your soulmates don’t need to have a similar zipcode. 

Thank you all for existing 🤍🪽

Haven’t been able to take pics or tag everyone! Still love you equally x

(Swipe) The Souls of Guatemala & Mexico Nov/Dec 2025 🪽🐦‍🔥 I’m beyond grateful to have a lot of close and also new friends and acquaintances from around the world and can call Tulum my second home.

If I didn’t go to México on my own back in May 2022, my life would have been completely different. 

I’m extremely grateful (and privileged) to be able to travel the world as a WOMAN on my own. Although I still live with my parents as in my country it’s hard to afford housing as a single person - I count my blessings and use that form of ‘space’ in my favor as a form of freedom.

UNESCO world heritage surrounded by Volcanoes 🌋🇬🇹 Antigua - Guatemala

Solo in Guatemala 🇬🇹✨
I started my journey in the beautiful colonial city of Antigua, and it instantly stole my heart.

After a one-hour flight from Cancún and a short drive from Guatemala City, I arrived in a place full of colorful streets, historic architecture, lush gardens and the cutest coffee spots.

It felt surprisingly social for solo travellers, with boutique hotels and hostels everywhere. I felt safe walking around on my own, even early in the mornings and evenings, and everything is close enough to explore on foot.

I spent about three days here, spread out over my trip. Two nights at the beginning and one night at the end. The perfect place to slow down, recharge, and meet people along the way.

Would you add Antigua to your solo travel list? 🤍 #guatemala #antigua #laantigua #solotravel

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. 🧿

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. 🧿

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.

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. 🌋💙
