Beauty Pageant Diary | Finalist at Miss Universe Netherlands (Noord-Brabant)

01/03/2025 | Reageer

When I found out that, due to the new organization and my age, I had one last chance to compete in Miss Universe Netherlands (Miss Universe Noord-Brabant), I knew I had to take it. After two incredibly challenging years, I had promised myself that 2025 would be the year I took the leap—grabbing every opportunity that brings me closer to my dreams and to change my life. What made this competition extra special was that I once again achieved a milestone. I became the first-ever active Dutch flight attendant to compete as a finalist for an international beauty pageant crown—and in 2020/2021, I did the same at the Dutch Miss World. As the only and first active flight attendant (in the Netherlands and at my airline) to accomplish this, I proudly broke barriers in the industry, paving the way for those who may follow in my footsteps. I am officially the first Miss and Stewardess in the Netherlands.

Every pageant has its own unique characteristics, and this one was no exception. While (the Dutch) Miss World is centered around “Beauty with a Purpose”, focusing on social causes in a personal charity, Miss Universe (Netherlands) had a more commercial approach. A significant part of the competition involved fundraising—through votes and donations for the charity the organization works with. This highlighted how different each competition is and how they each create their own impact.  The commercial side of the pageant, such as fundraising and voting, played a big role within Miss Universe Noord-Brabant. Although this is not necessarily my personal focus, I understand that it is an important aspect for the organization in their way of making an impact.

One of the most meaningful aspects of this journey was the support I received from incredible people. Alejandra, whom I’ve known since the pageant of 2020 and who was crowned Miss Universe Guatemala, was a huge support. She helped me prepare for my casting day, but beyond that, I am incredibly grateful for the friendship we have built over the years.

Toen ik hoorde dat ik, door de nieuwe organisatie en mijn leeftijd, nog één keer de kans had om deel te nemen aan Miss Universe Noord-Brabant, wist ik dat ik deze kans moest grijpen. Na twee enorm uitdagende jaren had ik mezelf voorgenomen dat 2025 het jaar zou worden waarin ik in het diepe zou springen en alle mogelijkheden zou benutten die me dichter bij mijn dromen brengen. Wat deze verkiezing extra speciaal maakte, was dat ik opnieuw een mijlpaal mocht bereiken. Als eerste actieve Nederlandse stewardess werd ik finalist in een internationale schoonheidsverkiezing, en in 2020/2021 deed ik hetzelfde bij de Nederlandse Miss World. Daarmee doorbrak ik een barrière binnen mijn airline industrie en zette ik een stap vooruit voor anderen die in mijn voetsporen willen treden. Ik ben officieel de eerste Miss én Stewardess in Nederland.

Elke verkiezing heeft zijn eigen kenmerken en aanpak, en dat merkte ik ook deze keer weer. Waar (de Nederlandse) Miss World volledig gericht was op “Beauty with a Purpose”, waarbij maatschappelijke betrokkenheid met een geheel eigen project als goed doel centraal staan, had deze verkiezing een andere, meer commerciële insteek. Er lag veel focus op het ophalen van geld voor het goede doel, zowel via stemmen als voor het goede doel waarmee de organisatie samenwerkt. Dit benadrukt hoe verschillend elke verkiezing is en hoe ze elk hun eigen manier hebben om impact te maken. De commerciële kant van de verkiezing, zoals fondsenwerving en stemmen, speelde een grote rol binnen Miss Universe Noord-Brabant. Hoewel dit niet per se mijn persoonlijke focus is, begrijp ik dat het voor de organisatie een belangrijk aspect is in hun manier van impact maken. 

Wat deze ervaring extra bijzonder maakte, was de steun die ik heb gekregen van verschillende mensen. Alejandra, die ik al ken sinds Miss World Nederland en zelf Miss Universe Guatemala is geweest, was daarin een grote steun. Ze heeft me af en toe geholpen en me goed voorbereid op de castingdag. Maar wat voor mij nog waardevoller was, is de vriendschap die we in de loop der jaren hebben opgebouwd.


Another moment that gave me confidence was my training with the speech coach. After a previous session together, she even told me that she didn’t know what else she could teach me. This was a huge affirmation of how much I had grown over the years and how prepared I was.

One of the things I valued most about this experience was the opportunity to share my message. A major highlight was my interview with ReisBizz, a magazine that published my story, and my TV interview with DTV Nieuws. I truly enjoyed reaching out to the press myself and seeing how my story was able to reach a wider audience. It made me feel like I was making an impact and using my voice in a meaningful way.

Beyond that, there were several moments in the competition that I truly enjoyed. The hairstyling session and the makeup shoot were fun experiences that allowed me to embrace the glamorous side of pageantry. This stunning makeup shoot was done by Timac Beauty, specially for my final look.

I am also incredibly grateful to Aline Hair Design. I won the title of “Miss Aline Hair Design”, which means I get to promote her salon while receiving many free hair treatments in return. As a Miss, that is definitely something I deeply appreciate!

Een ander moment dat me veel bevestiging gaf, was mijn training met de speech coach. Na een eerdere sessie samen zei ze zelfs dat ze niet meer wist wat ze me nog kon leren. Dit gaf me het vertrouwen dat ik goed voorbereid was en dat ik wist wat ik wilde overbrengen.

Wat deze ervaring voor mij zo waardevol maakte, was de mogelijkheid om mijn boodschap te delen. Een absoluut hoogtepunt was mijn interview met ReisBizz, een tijdschrift dat mijn verhaal publiceerde, en het tv-interview met DTV Nieuws. Ik vond het geweldig om de pers zelf te benaderen en te ervaren hoe mijn verhaal een groter publiek kon bereiken. Dit gaf me het gevoel dat ik echt impact kon maken en mijn stem kon laten horen.

Daarnaast waren er een aantal bijzondere momenten in de verkiezing zelf die ik echt heb genoten. Het kappersbezoek en de visagieshoot waren leuke ervaringen, waarbij ik kon genieten van de glamourkant van het traject. Deze prachtige visagieshoot werd gedaan door Timac Beauty, speciaal voor mijn finalelook.

Verder ben ik ontzettend dankbaar voor Aline Hair Design. Ik heb van haar de titel “Miss Aline Hair Design” gewonnen, wat betekent dat ik haar kapsalon mag promoten en in ruil daarvoor veel gratis haarbehandelingen krijg. Als Miss is dat natuurlijk iets waar ik erg dankbaar voor ben!

On finals day, everything came together—the months of preparation, the challenges, the special moments, and the personal growth I experienced. However, just like in 2021, I once again found myself outside the top rankings of the competition.

That disappointment is real, but what I know for sure is this:

My worth is not defined by a title, judges, or a crown. I showed up as my authentic, passionate, and determined self—and that is something no one can ever take away from me.

For now, I am taking a moment to process this setback, but I will come back stronger.

What I take away from this experience is not just the chance to be on stage, but more importantly, the people I’ve met, the lessons I’ve learned, and the confidence I’ve built.

This was an opportunity to share my story, to grow in ways I never expected, and to push myself beyond my comfort zone. I am grateful to have had this journey and proud of everything I’ve accomplished.

2025 is the year of taking the leap. And this experience was the perfect start.

Op de finaledag kwam alles samen. De maandenlange voorbereiding, de uitdagingen, de mooie momenten en de groei die ik had doorgemaakt. Toch viel ik, net als in 2021, buiten de top rankings van de competitie.

Dat is een teleurstelling die ik moest verwerken, maar wat ik weet is dit:

Mijn waarde wordt niet bepaald door een titel, juryleden of een kroon. Ik stond daar als mijn authentieke, gepassioneerde en vastberaden zelf—en dat is iets wat niemand mij ooit kan afnemen.

Voor nu neem ik een moment om deze tegenslag te verwerken, maar ik kom sterker terug.

Wat ik meeneem uit deze ervaring is niet alleen de kans om op een podium te staan, maar vooral de mensen die ik heb ontmoet, de lessen die ik heb geleerd en het vertrouwen dat ik heb opgebouwd.

Dit was een kans om mezelf te laten zien, om mijn verhaal te delen en om te groeien op een manier die ik nooit had verwacht. Ik ben dankbaar dat ik deze reis opnieuw heb mogen maken en kijk met trots terug op alles wat ik heb bereikt.

2025 is het jaar van in het diepe springen. En deze ervaring was daar de perfecte start van.

Special thanks to @alejandrajosebarillas & @impageantry for always being supportive and believing in my potential

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) 
2021 - Miss International (Miss Netherlands, crowning and international representation cancelled due to covid) 
2022 - Miss Nederland (top 50)
2024/2025 - Miss Universe Netherlands (Finalist Miss Universe Noord-Brabant & won sponsor/special title)
2025 - Miss Grand Int. NL (Miss Grand Den Bosch)
2025 - Miss Cosmo Int. NL (Top 5)

Pictures only show my pageants in 2025.

(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.

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.

There’s something magical about embracing your feminine energy in a world that often tells you to be harder, faster, stronger.
Standing here, in the middle of Rome, I felt a quiet kind of confidence, not the loud, forceful kind, but one that comes from softness, grace, and self-awareness.

Femininity isn’t weakness. It’s intuition, elegance, emotional intelligence, and the ability to move through life with warmth, even when the world feels cold sometimes.

The older I get, the more I realize: being feminine doesn’t make you less powerful. It is your power.
🤍
