Beauty Pageant Diary | Miss Grand Netherlands

02/07/2025 | Reageer

Before I take you back to where it all started—with my original Miss Grand Netherlands introduction—I’d love to share a short reflection on this unforgettable journey. Below you’ll find a heartfelt summary of my experience, along with some of my favorite photo highlights that capture the magic, growth, and power of this adventure. Let’s take it from the sky… to the GRAND.
Voordat ik je meeneem naar het begin—mijn oorspronkelijke introductie voor Miss Grand Netherlands—deel ik graag eerst een korte terugblik op dit onvergetelijke traject. In deze blog vind je een oprechte samenvatting van mijn ervaring, samen met een aantal foto highlights die de magie, groei en kracht van deze reis perfect samenvatten. Laten we samen terugblikken… from the sky, tot the GRAND.

✧ The introduction I started with:

GRAND from the sky
My name is Mandy Beekwilder—solo travel blogger, flight attendant, model, and proud finalist for Miss Grand Netherlands. Born in the beautiful city of Den Bosch, I am honored to represent my hometown in one of the most prestigious and globally recognized pageants.

At 28 years old, I take pride in being part of the evolution within pageantry—where age is no longer a limit but a symbol of strength, experience, and timeless beauty. In the past, women my age wouldn’t have been able to compete, but today, I proudly stand as proof that age is just a number, and that women can be strong, inspiring, and beautiful at any stage in life.

As the first pageant contestant in the Netherlands to combine the Miss title with a professional flying career, I carry a message that beauty and ambition can absolutely go hand in hand. My path has never been ordinary. From walking the runway as a model to building a brand around solo travel and empowerment—I’ve consistently chosen courage over comfort.

With an English degree in International Business and a passion for empowerment, I dedicate my time to my travel blog, where I inspire women to step into their power through my core value—authenticity. My mission is to help others pursue their dreams, whether it’s taking that solo journey or breaking barriers in their own lives. My advocacy is standing up against bullying and inspiring women to embrace their authenticity.

My ultimate goal? To fly for our national airline while expanding my travel business, empowering women (and anyone who relates) to embrace independence, strength, and adventure.

If I had to describe myself in three words, they would be: Authentic – Passionate – Inspiring.

✧ De introductie waarmee ik begon:

GRAND from the sky
Mijn naam is Mandy Beekwilder—solo reisblogger, stewardess, model en trotse finaliste voor Miss Grand Netherlands. Geboren in het prachtige Den Bosch, voel ik me vereerd om mijn stad te vertegenwoordigen in een van de meest prestigieuze en internationaal erkende missverkiezingen.

Met mijn 28 jaar ben ik trots dat ik onderdeel ben van de evolutie binnen de pageantwereld—waar leeftijd niet langer een beperking is, maar een symbool van kracht, ervaring en tijdloze schoonheid. Waar vrouwen van mijn leeftijd vroeger geen kans meer kregen om deel te nemen, sta ik hier nu als bewijs dat leeftijd slechts een getal is en dat vrouwen op elke leeftijd krachtig, inspirerend en mooi kunnen zijn.

Als de eerste missfinaliste in Nederland die het titeldomein van Miss combineert met een professionele carrière als stewardess, draag ik een krachtige boodschap uit: schoonheid en ambitie gaan wél samen. Mijn pad was nooit standaard. Van het modellenwerk tot het bouwen van een merk rondom solo reizen en empowerment—ik kies steeds weer voor moed boven gemak.

Met een diploma in International Business volledig in het Engels en een diepe passie voor empowerment, besteed ik mijn tijd aan mijn reisblog, waar ik vrouwen inspireer om in hun kracht te stappen. Mijn kernwaarde? Authenticiteit. Mijn missie is om anderen te helpen hun dromen waar te maken—of dat nu betekent die eerste soloreis maken of barrières doorbreken in hun eigen leven. Mijn advocacy is dan ook opstaan tegen pesten en vrouwen empoweren in het vieren van authenticity.

Mijn ultieme doel? Vliegen voor onze nationale luchtvaartmaatschappij, terwijl ik mijn reisbusiness verder uitbouw en vrouwen (en iedereen die zich aangesproken voelt) inspireer om onafhankelijk, sterk en avontuurlijk te zijn.

Als ik mezelf in drie woorden zou moeten omschrijven: Authentiek – Gepassioneerd – Inspirerend.


✧ And then the real journey began…

When I entered Miss Grand Netherlands, I honestly didn’t know what to expect. After previous experiences with beauty pageants—where jealousy, rivalry and even manipulative behavior played a role and unfortunately has certainly heavily influenced my results in the past. Those experiences made me cautious. I knew what a toxic environment could do.

But Miss Grand Netherlands completely changed my view. It felt like a breath of fresh air. For the first time, I was surrounded by women who were strong without stepping on each other. There was no backstabbing, no fakeness—just genuine connection and mutual empowerment.

The organization—Robin and Stefan—brought heart and professionalism together. Their love for what they do showed in every detail. I felt seen, respected, and supported—not just as a finalist, but as a human being with a story.

Even though I didn’t make the top 5, I didn’t leave with disappointment. I stood beside strong women, and most importantly—I stayed true to myself. That is my definition of success. I held nothing back. No mask, no act—just me. My voice, my presence, my story.

✧ En toen begon het echte traject…

Toen ik aan Miss Grand Netherlands begon, wist ik eerlijk gezegd niet wat ik moest verwachten. Na eerdere ervaringen met missverkiezingen—waar jaloezie, rivaliteit en zelfs manipulatief gedrag een rol speelden en mijn uitslagen helaas zeker heeft beinvloed in het verleden —was ik voorzichtiger geworden. Pageants konden schitterend zijn, maar óók vermoeiend en teleurstellend als de sfeer niet gezond was.

Maar Miss Grand Netherlands verraste me op de mooiste manier mogelijk. Het traject voelde als een verademing. Voor het eerst bevond ik me in een groep vrouwen waar onderlinge steun, respect en kracht de boventoon voerden. Geen competitie op een destructieve manier, maar vrouwen die elkaars groei echt gunden.

De organisatie—Robin en Stefan—bracht professionaliteit en oprechte betrokkenheid samen. Hun liefde voor het vak was voelbaar in elk moment. Ik voelde me gezien, gehoord en gewaardeerd—niet alleen als finaliste, maar als mens.

Hoewel ik uiteindelijk niet in de top 5 eindigde, voelde het absoluut niet als een verlies. Ik stond naast sterke vrouwen, en ik bleef trouw aan mezelf. Dát is waar het voor mij om draait. Ik heb niets ingehouden, geen masker opgezet—ik was daar als mezelf, met mijn stem, mijn verhaal, mijn kracht.

✧ What I take with me

This journey restored my belief in what pageants can be. It proved that things can be done differently—with space for truth, sisterhood, and real transformation.

Miss Grand Netherlands is an incredible pageant with a global presence and powerful concept. It embodies glamor, impact, and bold energy. At the same time, I realized that it doesn’t fully reflect who I naturally am. Every pageant has a different tone, and while Miss Grand is all about fire, fierceness, and explosive charisma, I’m someone who is naturally high-energy and passionate, yet also refined, introspective, and emotionally driven.

During the process, I sometimes felt that I wasn’t channeling my energy the way I normally do. It felt like I was operating slightly outside my natural rhythm. This side of me exists—but it’s not my dominant mode. I adapted without losing myself, and I learned that not every format has to fit perfectly to be meaningful or successful.

I am proud of the woman I was on that stage. I am grateful for every single moment.
Because a stage isn’t just a spotlight—
It’s a voice.

And I will keep using it.

As my grandmother always said:
“I am me, and there is only one of me.”

From the Sky to the GRAND – The one and only.

✧ Wat ik meeneem 

Deze ervaring heeft mijn vertrouwen in de wereld van missverkiezingen hersteld. Het bewees dat het wél anders kan. Dat er plek is voor echtheid, voor sisterhood, voor échte groei.

Ik zie Miss Grand Netherlands als een geweldige verkiezing met een wereldwijd impactvol platform. Het is een krachtig concept dat glamour, expressie en vuur met elkaar verbindt. Tegelijkertijd merkte ik dat het niet 100% weerspiegelt wie ik van nature ben. Elke verkiezing heeft een ander thema, en waar Miss Grand draait om uitbundige presence en vurige flair, ben ik van nature juist energiek, gepassioneerd, maar ook gevoelig, verfijnd en inhoudelijk sterk.

Tijdens het traject voelde ik soms dat ik mijn energie minder goed wist te verdelen dan ik gewend ben. Alsof ik nét buiten mijn natuurlijke toon opereerde. Deze kant zit wel degelijk in mij, maar minder dominant. Ik paste me aan, zonder mezelf te verliezen, maar ik leerde wel: niet elk jasje hoeft volledig te passen om toch iets moois te ervaren en neer te zetten.

Ik ben trots op wat ik heb neergezet. Ik ben trots op de vrouw die daar stond. En ik ben dankbaar voor ieder moment.

Want een podium is niet zomaar een spotlight.
Het is een stem.

En die blijf ik gebruiken.

Zoals mijn oma altijd zei:
“Ik ben ik, en daar is er maar één van.”

From the sky, tot the GRAND – The one and only.

80 second solo trip throwback to Medellín - April this year 🇨🇴✈️
My second time in Colombia. 

One spontaneous decision — and suddenly, I was on my way back to Colombia.
Booked just one day before flying, this trip took me from Madrid to Medellín — my second time here since 2022.

I had no fixed plan. Just a craving for sunshine, freedom, and that familiar energy that makes Colombia feel so alive.

My days were filled with small, beautiful moments: breakfast at Hija Mija, wandering through El Poblado, visiting Comuna 13 with its colors and street art, slow mornings with coffee at Pergamino, and fun nights out in Provenza.

One of my highlights was finally crossing paragliding off my list — floating above the city between clouds and mountains, completely free.

And then, the simple joy of hostel life — laughing and talking for hours with my roommates, Patricia, Frankie, and Charlie. I’ll never stop loving how quickly women connect in those shared dorms; it’s instant trust and warmth.

This time, Medellín felt calmer and softer than my first trip, but still full of heart, color, and kindness.
Not just a place I visited — a place I felt.

If you’ve ever thought about visiting Colombia, let this be your sign.
Go — stay in a hostel, meet people from all over, try the coffee, fly above the city, and let Medellín surprise you too.

Photodump of 2025 in pageantry - 3 pageants in one year 👑 - After leaving pageantry in 2022 (After joining Miss World NL, the casting of Miss Netherlands, and the uncontinued journey (due to covid) to represent The Netherlands at Miss International in 2021 👸🏼) I came back late 2024 as the continuing forever first active Dutch Flight attendant & Miss - combining aviation with pageantry. 

After quitting, I never thought I’d do 3 pageants in one year. Completing joining 5/7 biggest pageants in the world (Within The Netherlands).

All the way back, I started both pageantry & aviation in 2017. However I resigned from a small pageant I was in back in 2017 ✈️

DUTCH PAGEANTRY: 

2020/2021 - Miss World NL (Finalist within The Netherlands)

(Swipe) April Travel Throwback 🪂🇨🇴💃🏼☕️ - Medellín Colombia. My second time solo travelling to Medellín. 6 months ago, I went to Medellín for the second time. Colombia has been one of my favorite (solo) travel destinations for a long time already. Back in 2022, I went to Cartagena, Medellín, Guatapé & The Rosario Islands for the first time, while completely solo travelling. At that time, it was my second time in South America (which I have now been over 13 times!). I’m eternally grateful for that trip, because Colombia was high on my list after I visited México for the first time that year. I met incredible friends back in 2022 from all over the world during this trip, that I have seen at many other destinations afterwards and am still friends with until this day. For me, the connection of the beautiful people I get and got to meet goes beyond time & distance. Once a true friend, I will travel the ocean to be with you. 

The pictures in this carrousel are pictures of the second trip, 04-2025, where I only went to Medellín, flying straight from Madrid - for 5 nights. It was good to be back, because I met lovely souls along the way and even saw a friend again, that I met at the Rosasio islands 2 years before. I also got to cross off a bucket list thing - which was paragliding (parapente) 🪂. 

This country has so much beauty to see, a lot of diversity and warm, passionate and incredible humans. From the colonial city of Cartagena, to the unreal valley city of Medellín. From coffee farms in the hills, to the impressive Comuna-13, to the other-earthly views of El Penõl in Guatapé. 

Blessed to be able to see such places with my own eyes, knowing travelling is a privilege only some in the world have access to.

For me, the connection of the beautiful people I get and got to meet goes beyond time & distance. Once a true friend, I will travel the ocean to be with you. The pictures in this carrousel are pictures of the second trip, 04-2025, where I only went to Medellín, flying straight from Madrid - for 5 nights. It was good to be back, because I met lovely souls along the way and even saw a friend again, that I met at the Rosasio islands 2 years before. I also got to cross off a bucket list thing - which was paragliding (parapente) 🪂. This country has so much beauty to see, a lot of diversity and warm, passionate and incredible humans. From the colonial city of Cartagena, to the unreal valley city of Medellín. From coffee farms in the hills, to the impressive Comuna-13, to the other-earthly views of El Penõl in Guatapé. Blessed to be able to see such places with my own eyes, knowing travelling is a privilege only some in the world have access to. 🇨🇴🤍 #medellin #provenza #elpoblado #colombia #colombiatravel #solotravel #solotraveller . . . #stewardess #flightattendant #cabincrew #cabinattendant #elegant #beautypageant #femaletravel #solofemaletravel #model

Throwback Tulum vlog 🌴🥥 Can’t wait to go back in a month from now. 

24 hours in paradise 🌴✨
From sunrise swims to jungle cafes — a day filled with color, calm and a little chaos (the Tulum way).
Join me as I show you what 24 hours solo in Tulum really looks like — the freedom, the rhythm, and the magic between the moments.
