Special (outfit) shoot | Vesica

10/05/2025 | Reageer

This special shoot took place at the magical Vesica Cenote — a hidden gem in the jungle where water, light, and stillness come together. I felt deeply connected to myself and nature in this place. I’m wearing a beautiful bikini from Berlook, gifted to me through a lovely collaboration. I’m not posting this as a formal portfolio shoot, but more as a look, a feeling, a captured moment.

As for my plans this winter… I’ll keep those to myself for a little while longer. But I can already tell you that I’m journaling daily, praying with intention, and trusting that everything will unfold as it’s meant to. ✨

Last year was one of the hardest years of my life. And while social media only shows the highlights, I’ve learned that behind every “perfect” image is often a deeper process. There were moments when I felt completely lost — but I always found my way back. Mexico played a big part in that healing. When one dream is slow to arrive, I focus on building the others. I keep creating, exploring, connecting, and growing. I’m grateful to be in places like this — and even more grateful to share it with you.

Deze bijzondere shoot vond plaats bij de magische Vesica Cenote — een verborgen parel midden in de jungle waar water, licht en rust samenkomen. Ik voelde me hier echt verbonden met mezelf en met de natuur. Ik draag in deze foto’s een prachtige bikini van Berlook, waarmee ik een mooie samenwerking had. Omdat ik deze content niet als een standaard portfolio-post op mijn website plaats, wilde ik het hier op een meer persoonlijke manier delen — als een look, een gevoel, een moment.

Wat mijn plannen zijn voor deze winter… die hou ik nog heel even voor mezelf. Maar ik kan alvast verklappen dat ik aan het manifesteren ben, journal dagelijks en heel bewust aan het bidden ben dat alles op z’n plek valt. ✨

Afgelopen jaar was één van de moeilijkste jaren uit mijn leven. En hoewel social media vaak alleen de hoogtepunten laat zien, weet ik inmiddels dat achter elk perfect plaatje vaak een diep proces schuilt. Er waren momenten dat ik me verloren voelde, maar telkens weer pakte ik de draad op — en Mexico heeft daar een grote rol in gespeeld. Als één droom even op zich laat wachten, werk ik aan de andere. Ik blijf bouwen aan wat me gelukkig maakt: creëren, reizen, verbinden, en groeien. Dankbaar dat ik op zulke plekken mag zijn. En nog dankbaarder dat ik dit mag delen met jullie.

Wait for the end… 🥹🌎

Imagine all the beautiful souls you would have never met if you had waited for someone to travel with you.

The strangers who became friends. The unexpected connections. The people who made a foreign country feel like home. 🤍

Looking back, the most beautiful part of traveling solo was never just the places I visited.

It was the people I met along the way.

Some of them are still part of my life years later.

And to think I could have missed all of that simply because I was afraid to go alone.

Send this to someone you met while traveling. ✈️❤️

Almost one year ago, my favorite engine pictures 🛫 I had the absolute honor to be a guest again at the exclusive fundraiser gala @transavia @esterfonds_  for @peterpanvakantieclub hosted between the airplanes at Transavia 💚

During this incredible fundraiser, the team raised over 110.000€ for sick children, to give them a vacation and memory they will never forget 🧸

In 2021 I had the absolute honor to host this event, the biggest honor in my carreer as a flight attendant 🛫  And I’m happy to announce that next year, the possibility I might host the event again is very big 🥹

The plane behind me is NOT AI - this is actually an airplane used for the event ✨

TORONTO, CANADA 🇨🇦 | A little home away from home

My second time visiting Canada! 🍁

After spending some quality time with my family, who live about two hours outside Toronto, I decided to spend a few extra days in the city.

Lucky for me, I have some amazing Canadian friends, including one who welcomed me into her home right in the heart of downtown Toronto! 🥹❤️

With most of my friends and family living outside the Netherlands, travelling isn’t always about discovering new places. Sometimes, it’s simply about reconnecting with the people I love. And that’s exactly why I travel as much as I do. ❤️

A few of my Toronto recommendations:

📍 Found Coffee ☕️
📍 Kensington Market
📍 CN Tower
📍 Augusta Coffee Bar ☕️
📍 Toronto Waterfront
📍 Rent a bike & explore the city 
📍 Trinity Bellwoods Park 🌳
📍 Christie Pits Park 🌿

Until next time, Toronto! 🇨🇦❤️

Extra details ✨

Shirt dress: @trendyol 
Floral corset: @lounge_ 
Yellow corset set: @lounge_ 
Brown bag: @furla 
Sunglasses: @celine 
Black bag: @ysl 
Black heels: @uwantisell 
Nails: @naked.point 
All gold jewelry: @finaste.nl 
White blazer: @zara
