Being a Stewardess | Back in the sky again

31/07/2020 | 2 Reacties

Hi everyone. Because I love my job so much, I wanted to make a third and above all personal blog post about flying in the context of finally flying again. First of all I would like to say that I am very grateful that I have been able to be in the air for 6 weeks already and that I am working full-time again. It is now a bit different than we are used to, but every day I feel those butterflies in my stomach when I step on board and see the world from above. [Lees meer…]

I bought this lovely dress at Vero Moda a while ago and I have been living in it lately. I like such a breezy maxi dress because you are ready in one go in terms of outfit and it feels great to wear. How are you? Tomorrow I am going to fly again, super excited! So grateful to be able to fly again during these crazy times! [Lees meer…]

I captured this outfit with my best friend Jeremy again. I bought this beautiful set for one of my trips, but the next one is probably 3 days in October – Faro with a friend from work. Very much looking forward to traveling again. The 19th I have my first flight again, together with the same good friend – super excited! [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! How are you? I am doing well because it looks like I can do what makes me very happy again soon – my job as a Stewardess! Café’s and restaurants will also open next week, so I have already made a few reservations. Saturday I will order take-out lunch from Frenchie Café with two colleagues. This outfit is over a year old, but I just recently made a post of it, because a lot of people wanted to know where I bought the items. In this post – week diary I had posted pictures of it before. These cool sunglasses are new and I bought this as a present for myself this month. My sister has the same pair of sunglasses, but in a slightly different model. I have this nice dress in my favorite color in 2 other colors, in both outfit Noir (of which I have more posts) and Seville I wear the others. [Lees meer…]

I bought this dress in both black and white last year. I wore this in black at a beach party for Aviation personnel and I wanted to wear this white one this year. Because it is a (beach) party look, I combine this look with lower, more comfortable heels. It seems to me that no one can party in high heels for an entire day without having sore feet at the end of the evening. My best friend shot this outfit at the Sint Jan, so credits him for the nice result. I bought these cool earrings last year at Vanessa Mooney for 73 euros inc shipping and discount. P.s – I applied a different color of lipstick during the shoot, to explain the difference in color. [Lees meer…]

I bought this nice dress from Loavies a while ago, also almost sold it as well because I thought it was too big. I thought this dress was really ideal for a coffee in town when I bought it or for lunch with friends, I long for the day when this will be possible again. I took these photos with Sandra, we had not taken any photos together for a while, so after a long time we captured each other’s outfits. [Lees meer…]

I got this super cute purple dress from jurkjes.com. I didn’t have a purple dress in my closet yet, so it’s super nice to have one in this color too. It is lovely for the nice weather which will come and has been there the past few days. I plan to go to Faro with Michelle (dear friend from work) in Oktober for 3 days – this super cute dress will definitely come with me. [Lees meer…]

This cute summerdress is from jurkjes.com. Red is my favorite color, so how nice is it to have a super nice new summer dress in this color. It is super comfy and really lovely during the warmer days. At the bottom of this post you can find the link to the dress. [Lees meer…]

Gone (solo) travelling 😜

One day they’ll look for the version of you that was always there.

The version they took for granted.

And by then, you’ll be gone.

What’s the hardest lesson something taught you without meaning to?

Beautiful villa @villa_hunab_ku 🌴

One day I realized:

I wasn’t afraid of being and travelling alone.

I was afraid of losing my life while waiting for someone else.

So I booked the flight. ✈️

What’s something you’ve been waiting for?

Based on facts 🌴✈️ Can you relate?

"What do you like to do for fun?"

Leave the country.

New places, new people, new stories.
Every single time.

At what point does it stop being a hobby and become a personality trait? 😂

Mini cut from last weekend in Marbella

Guatemala, one of the most heartwarming places I’ve experienced so far. A destination that still crosses my mind almost daily. And now in my top 5 favorites.

After being lucky enough to solo travel to so many beautiful places around the world, Guatemala instantly became one of the places that touched me the most.

The people, the atmosphere, the volcanoes, Lake Atitlán, the coffee, the food, UNESCO Antigua… this country has a soul that is difficult to describe unless you’ve experienced it yourself.

I met beautiful humans I still speak to from time to time, and I’m grateful to now call some incredible Guatemalans my friends.

I travelled here with my new camera, and I’m so thankful I was able to capture parts of this beautiful country through my own eyes, while also collaborating with amazing companies along the way.

I remember my eyes being teary while being on a boat at Lake Atitlan, and the moment I saw the Volcano erupt during the hike - one of the most challenging things I have ever done. 

Some places impress you.
Others stay with you.
Guatemala did both. 🌋🇬🇹

Pictures by me using my Sony Alpha A6100 + portrait lens, and @luzd_23 📸

Gracias @freecerveza for the awesome stay! & @lavatrails.gt for the AMAZING hike!

Wait for the end! ✈️ 
Some women wait for love to start living.
I booked the ticket anyway. 

Some of the most beautiful moments of my life happened because I stopped waiting, for permission, for certainty, for someone to come with me.

Solo travelling taught me that freedom can be lonely sometimes, but also deeply empowering. It gave me sunsets in countries I once only dreamed about, strangers that became memories, confidence I never learned at home, and versions of myself I would’ve never met if I stayed safe.

I may not have everything figured out yet, but I’ve lived. Deeply. Wildly. Internationally.
And honestly? That already makes me rich in life.

I know it’s not a possibility for every woman in the world to do this. Something travel also showed me over and over again.

Embracing Authenticity | Defending Truth on my Miss World (Netherlands) journey in 2021, my core values and mission

Dutch version below – Hello everyone, I would like to share my truth, vision, and story with all of you, including the beliefs I stand for.
