24/01/2026 | Reageer

Hi everyone! Welcome to a new travel diary ✨This was already my 9th time in Mexico, and honestly… it’s starting to feel like coming home. My days here have slowly become more like “daily life,” which makes this place even more special to me. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! Just a quick Mexico outfit post before my next travel diaries go live. Since I became a travel blogger, I’ve been trying not to forget my outfit posts. I love making them, and a lot of people follow me, and always have, for that content – ​​so I’ll definitely keep doing that 😊 The Mexico travel diaries (and even Madrid) are still coming! I’ve just been so busy that the Guatemala travel posts took priority. [Lees meer…]

Hi everyone! Less than 72 hours ago, I returned from 30 days in Mexico and Guatemala – I’m so grateful that I was able to offer this to myself and experience it. These two beautiful destinations have taught me so much, given me so much, and left me with an immense sense of gratitude. That’s why I’m so excited to share my new (solo) travel diaries soon, plus a travel diary from before this wonderful, very recent trip. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary | Last minute trip back to Tulum (after Medellín)

19/05/2025 | Reageer

Hi everyone, and welcome back to another Mexico travel diary! I know it might seem like I never go anywhere else, but when you fall in love with a place that feels like home—like Tulum does for me—you’ll understand why I keep coming back. This trip was a last-minute decision with no set plans, and by saying ‘yes’ to almost everything that crossed my path, it turned out to be one of my absolute favorite Mexico adventures so far. I met beautiful new people, made unforgettable memories, and I can’t wait to share it all with you. [Lees meer…]

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.

Outfit | Babel

07/05/2025 | Reageer

Hi everyone! 2 weeks ago I had a super nice collaboration with Hotel Babel in Tulum. At this place I was able to make a lot of super nice outfit photos and content. The reason I was already back in Tulum – was because I had 4 weeks off, and was actually going to travel to Guatemala. Due to the festive week around Easter all flights were overbooked – I heard that again afterwards from someone else who wanted to do the same. I had to make a decision within 48 hours to go on a trip, otherwise I would have wasted my entire holiday period. I decided to go to Medellin a 2nd time, and then on to Tulum again. Despite there being only a month between the two times Mexico, I had a great time! [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary | 6th (Partial) Solo trip of 3 weeks to Mexico – part 2

21/02/2025 | Reageer

At the time of my stay, I happened to be the only guest, which meant I spent a lot of time with Rodrigo, Diana, her husband, and their kids, practicing some Spanish with them. Watching the stars from the beach every night was one of the most special moments of my stay. [Lees meer…]

Mexico travel diary | 5th (Partial) Solo trip to Tulum & Playa del Carmen – part 1

09/06/2024 | Reageer

At the end of April, I traveled to Mexico for the fifth time in two years. Yes, you read that right—five times! Mexico has become my ultimate destination, the place I constantly want to return to. The combination of fantastic hospitality, the internationally beloved cuisine (also my favorite!), stunning oceans, lively parties, expats, solo travelers, and the many friends I’ve made here, makes this country incredibly special to me. In Mexico, you can find everything: from the most delicious tacos and margaritas to breathtaking views and a vibrant atmosphere that you won’t find anywhere else. Each trip to Mexico is different and brings new adventures and collaborations. That’s why I keep a diary of every trip to share all these experiences and new tips with you. [Lees meer…]

No one is more alive than the girl making up for the years she lost in survival mode. ✨

I turned 30 knowing exactly what I want from life - I’m just not there yet. I was there years ago, but the bar changed. 

I’ve worked since I was 21, my dream job at that time, but haven’t landed my long-haul dream yet. I’ve never had the long, safe love I want. I still live at home during a housing crisis.

And yes, my Instagram is a highlight reel. Every beautiful moment I share is real - but so are the parts you don’t see.

People sometimes tell me not to share the struggles because “people enjoy seeing you fail.” But those people occupy so little space in my mind that I genuinely forget they exist.

I’d rather be real.

So while I’m building the life I actually want, I’m not waiting to start living. I travel the world alone, chase experiences, meet people, create, dream and collect memories along the way.

I know where I want to go. I’m just not there yet.
And I refuse to call the journey there a failure. 🤍🌎
