Hi loves, It’s been a little while since my last blog post. Medellín is still waiting behind the scenes (I promise it’s coming!), but first I wanted to share a little life update. Since a while, I’m not posting travel content as regularly — because I’m fully focusing on something very special: Miss Grand Netherlands.

I’m currently competing, and I absolutely love being part of it. It brings me so much new energy, confidence, and purpose. It feels like exactly what I needed in this phase of my life. And who knows… maybe even more beautiful opportunities will follow after this.

2024 has been one of the most challenging years of my life. It came with unexpected lows and personal struggles. But that’s exactly why I made a promise to myself: I will do everything I can to make 2025 my year. A year of strength, rising, and chasing my dreams.

My biggest dream? To represent the Netherlands on an international stage. In 2021, I was set to compete at Miss International for my country, but due to circumstances, it never happened. Still, that dream never left me. And I truly believe: when your heart calls you, there’s something meant for you.

So while my suitcase takes a break, my heels are hitting the stage. Ready to show who I am, share my story, and live the dream I’ve held onto for so long.

Thank you for being here, and for believing in second chances and big dreams.

Hi lieve allemaal, Het is alweer even geleden sinds mijn laatste blogpost. Medellín staat nog steeds on hold (die komt er zeker nog aan!), maar ik wilde jullie eerst een kleine update geven. De afgelopen tijd postte ik wat minder regelmatig travelcontent dan jullie gewend zijn. En dat komt doordat ik me nu volledig focus op iets heel bijzonders: Miss Grand Netherlands.

Ik doe momenteel mee aan deze verkiezing en ik vind het echt geweldig om te doen. Het geeft me weer nieuwe energie, zelfvertrouwen en doelgerichtheid. Precies wat ik nodig had in deze fase van mijn leven. En wie weet… misschien volgen er hierna nog meer mooie kansen.

2024 is voor mij een van de meest uitdagende jaren ooit geweest. Het bracht onverwachte dieptepunten en veel persoonlijke struggles. Maar juist daarom besloot ik: ik ga er alles aan doen om van 2025 míjn jaar te maken. Mijn jaar van terugkomen, kracht en dromen najagen.

Mijn grootste droom? Nederland vertegenwoordigen op een internationaal podium. In 2021 zou ik naar Miss International gaan voor Nederland, maar door omstandigheden is dat nooit doorgegaan. Toch is die droom altijd bij me gebleven. En ik geloof: waar je hart je roept, ligt iets dat voor jou bedoeld is.

Dus terwijl mijn koffers even stilstaan, zet ik mijn hakken stevig op het podium. Klaar om mijn verhaal te delen, mezelf te laten zien, en te doen waar ik al zolang van droom.

Dankjewel dat je hier bent, en dat je gelooft in tweede kansen en grote dromen.

One decision changed the entire direction of my life..

What started as one scary solo trip became a completely different life. 🌍✨

Nine years ago, I had every excuse not to go.

“What if I’m lonely?”
“What if something happens?”
“What if I’m not brave enough?”

Now I’ve explored dozens of countries on my own, met incredible people from all over the world, discovered places I never knew existed, and most importantly… I discovered a version of myself I never would have met if I had stayed home.

Solo travel isn’t about proving you’re independent.

It’s about realizing you’re capable of so much more than you ever imagined.

If my journey encourages even one woman to book that flight she’s been dreaming about, then every adventure has been worth it.

Be the reason another woman believes she can do it too. 🤍

✈️ Would you ever travel solo? Tell me where you’d go first.

The best things that ever happened to me started when;

I stopped waiting. 🌍✨

Some of the most beautiful memories of my life began with a table for one.

What’s one place you’ve always wanted to visit on your own? 🤍

Life moves so fast. These photos aren’t for algorithms - they’re little pieces of a life I never want to forget. If they inspire someone along the way, that’s just a bonus. 🤍✨
