Being a Stewardess | One year of corona in aviation

02/03/2021 | 2 Reacties

When I drive past Schiphol in the early morning, or late at night after Miss World, and see the illuminated runways, I still feel those butterflies in my stomach. Schiphol is a magical place that I have admired since my childhood. A gateway to new adventures and special stories, I always wanted to be a part of that. As cliché as it may sound, “the sky is my home”. From an early age I already felt an enormous connection with aviation. And who follows his/her heart often gets where he/she belongs.

My airline feels like coming home, aviation feels like coming home. Even though I have a wonderful life on the ground, and I do all kinds of things besides my great job. Aviation is in my heart and soul, and I can never say goodbye to it. I got to know friends for life. Roos, Felitza, Michelle, Chrissy, Tessa, Stephanie and a lot of other special people

When I, 6 years ago, boarded for my first flight in then 8 years, I was even more sure than I was already as a child, that my heart was in aviation, and this was my place. It was the feeling of a new beginning, as if this was how it was supposed to happen. I still carry that feeling with me every day, and forever. When I get up in the morning, put on my uniform, high heels, red lipstick and look in the mirror, I think; I am allowed to do this job, I have made my dream come true, I am a flight attendant. And that feeling helps me through fun and slightly less fun flights and I take that thought with me every day. My heart and soul are in the air. It’s a part of me, a way of life I would never want to be separated from. I think aviation is a magical world that I would never want to leave.

One day, the masks will be gone, we will see people without masks on smile and hear wonderful stories from their travels. One day I will be in Dubai again enjoying myself with a nice crew, in Groningen again, or at another beautiful destination that will come. These are uncertain times, but remember; bad times are never forever. Often things get worse before they get better.

Don’t make me walk when I want to fly.

Note: In this blog post I have a lot of nice photos from before the Corona crisis / measures. So these are photos from before corona and the distance/mask rule.

Als ik langs Schiphol rijd op de vroege ochtend, of laat op de avond na Miss World, en de verlichtte landingsbanen zie, dan voel ik nog altijd die kriebels in mijn buik. Schiphol is een magische plek, die ik sinds kinds af aan al bewonder. Een poort naar nieuwe avonturen en bijzondere verhalen, daar wilde ik altijd een onderdeel van zijn. Hoe cliché het ook klinkt, ‘the sky is my home’. Sinds jongs af aan voelde ik al een enorme verbinding met de luchtvaart. En wie zijn hart volgt, komt vaak waar zij/hij hoort.

Mijn airline voelt als thuis komen, de luchtvaart voelt als thuis komen. Ook al heb ik een prachtig leven op de grond, en doe ik van alles naast mijn mooie baan, zit de luchtvaart in mijn hart en ziel. Van die wereld zal ik nooit afscheid kunnen nemen. Ik heb er vriendinnen voor het leven leren kennen; Roos, Felitza, Michelle, Chrissy, Tessa, Stephanie en een hoop andere bijzondere mensen

Toen ik, inmiddels 6 jaar geleden aan boord stapte voor mijn eerste vlucht in toen der tijd 8 jaar, wist ik nog zekerder dat mijn hart in de luchtvaart lag, en dit mijn plek was. Het was een gevoel van een nieuw begin, alsof dit zo hoorde te gebeuren. Dat gevoel draag ik nog altijd, en voor altijd elke dag met mij mee. Als ik in de ochtend opsta, mijn uniform, hoge hakken aantrek, rode lippenstift op doe en in de spiegel kijk dan denk ik; ik mag dit werk doen, ik heb mijn droom waar gemaakt, ik ben stewardess. En dat gevoel helpt mij door leuke, en ietjes minder leuke vluchten heen en die gedachte neem ik elke dag mee. Mijn hart en ziel ligt in de lucht. Het is een deel van mij, een manier van leven waar ik nooit afstand van zou willen doen. Ik vind de luchtvaart een magische wereld waar ik nooit uit zou willen vertrekken.

Op een dag, zullen de mondkapjes weg zijn, zullen we mensen zonder masker zien lachen en prachtige verhalen horen van hun reizen. Op een dag zit ik weer in Dubai te genieten met een leuke crew, in Groningen, of op een andere mooie locatie die komt. Het zijn onzekere tijden, maar onthoud; slechte tijden zijn nooit voor altijd. Vaak gaat het eerst slechter voor het beter wordt. 

Don’t make me walk, when I want to fly.

Note: In deze blogpost heb ik nog een hoop leuke foto’s van vóór de Corona crisis/maatregelen. Dit zijn dus foto’s van vóór corona en de mondkapjes/afstand plicht.

(Scheduled post) The power of feminine dressing - I don’t even own a pair of denim jeans. Not because I think there’s anything wrong with them, but because ultra-feminine is simply who I am and I don’t feel comfortable in them.
And I’m done toning it down to fit in.

When I said the world is dressing more masculine,
I got backlash.
But I stand by what I feel and see.
And I still choose grace, softness, and style with intention,
every single day.

Feminine dressing isn’t outdated.
It’s timeless. It’s powerful.
It just means you honour beauty, tradition, elegance, and your own feminine energy.

All dresses in this video are from my dress partner @theprettydress 🤍

After a challenging period last year, that I won’t share the details of openly - I got back on track again since the end of last year ✈️ I am very proud of myself for finding my spark and power back again after overcoming things I never thought would happen to me, things you would only see in movies, stories I could genuinely write a book about. 

This year has taught me once again how incredibly much inner strength I have, that I can only be bent, not broken.

I hope my story, and the stories I have shared with the world and media over the years, will keep inspiring people to stand in their own authenticity and follow their dreams. You are stronger than you think. 

Some pictures of happy moments since I am back in the sky again (the first pic is older though)

I’m turning 29 soon, and I’m not scared to admit the things we’re often told to hide.
Not everything in my life looks like a highlight. Not everything feels “on track.”
At this age, I thought I’d be married. With a dream job. A home. Maybe even a baby on the way. 

But life had other plans and I embrace my life for what it is, without shame for who I am. 

✨ I’m still chasing my dreams — even when they feel far.
🌍 I hope to grow my career online so I can live and work freely.
💔 I wonder if real love still exists in this generation, or if we’re all just scared. I believe love is real from myself to a man.
💸 I’d rather make nothing than sell my body for attention and some easy money.
📉 My weight keeps fluctuating, no matter how healthy I try to live.
🏡 I still live with my parents — and I never thought I’d say that at 28. 
☕ I drink too much coffee. I overthink. I overfeel.
But I also hope. I try. I create.

And I’m learning:
You don’t have to be “on time” to be whole.
You don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to be proud of how far you’ve come.

So no, I’m not scared of turning 29.
I’m scared of pretending I’m someone I’m not.

This is my version. This is real.
And maybe that’s exactly what someone out there needed to hear today.

The power of vulnerability and never ashamed of who I am. There is nothing I hide of myself.

I’m turning 29 soon, and I’m not scared to admit the things we’re often told to hide. Not everything in my life looks like a highlight. Not everything feels “on track.” At this age, I thought I’d be married. With a dream job. A home. Maybe even a baby on the way. But life had other plans and I embrace my life for what it is, without shame for who I am. ✨ I’m still chasing my dreams — even when they feel far. 🌍 I hope to grow my career online so I can live and work freely. 💔 I wonder if real love still exists in this generation, or if we’re all just scared.

A casual walk through 80 AD 🇮🇹🏛️

My Roman empire is the real one 🏛️ Share this with somebody you want to visit Rome with. The colosseum in Rome is one of the 7 wonders of the world. I feel blessed to call this my fourth out of seven. 

🌿 Did you know? The Colosseum could hold over 50,000 spectators, and its massive retractable awning system called the velarium, was operated by Roman sailors to protect the audience from the sun. Even back then… they knew how to do luxury in style. 🏛️☀️

Come with me on a day in Rome - Italy 🇮🇹🏛️ Together with my friend @allineboff - One day vlog in one minute ⛲️ We really enjoyed our brunch at 📍@mollysgarden_roma thank you for the invitation ☕️

This was a last minute trip with Aline - as we did not plan this trip a very long time ago. As Rome is only a two hour flight for me compared to the normal 12-20 hours it takes for us to meet up, I decided to take the opportunity to visit her ✈️

Do you dream of going to Rome or have you been there? Let me know in the comments ✨

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