Hi everyone 🤍 Welcome to another new outfit post! During my trip through Mexico, I took so many photos that I decided to separate my outfit shoots from my travel diaries – otherwise, they would have gotten endless. These photos were again taken at Villa Hunab-Ku in Tulum (which, by the way, you can also find several blog posts about). Many were shot in the beautiful Zen Room – the villa’s Japanese-style room. That space alone is magical.

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! Between all the travel diaries, an outfit post, and a collaboration. These photos were retaken with my brand new camera, which I’m so happy with and will always take with me from now on.

Hi everyone! This look is from last month when my good friend Demi came to Amsterdam for a day on her Emirates layover. It was so much fun to see her, and even though she lives in Dubai and I live in the Netherlands – we still see each other regularly every x amount of months. That day we went to lunch together at the ‘nine streets’ at a place called Pluk Amsterdam – great recommendation! Afterwards we walked around together and took some nice pictures. If you are looking for a nice place in Amsterdam, I definitely recommend the ‘negen straatjes’!

Hi everyone! Earlier this month I finally did something fun with my sweet Miss Netherlands for Miss World friend Dilay. We haven’t seen each other for over 1.5 years! How time flies. Luckily she lives close to me – in Eindhoven, so it was only a relatively short drive from Den Bosch. She also took these fun pictures at the place where we had lunch!

Hey allemaal! Dit is mijn laatste Bali-outfitpost en ik ben super enthousiast om jullie binnenkort mee te nemen in mijn reisdagboeken! Er komen spannende verhalen aan over mijn avonturen in Canggu, Uluwatu en Ubud – elk een uniek stukje van Bali. Deze foto’s zijn gemaakt door een geweldige nieuwe reisvriendin uit Australië, die ik heb ontmoet in ons gezellige hostel Kuna, midden in het prachtige Ubud.

In the bustling streets of Tulum, where the atmosphere is infused with an eclectic mix of styles, I crafted my own unique look. While not necessarily a fan of the typical hippie style, I am drawn to the elegant boho aesthetic, with a hint of Greek goddess mixed in. It feels like the perfect place to experiment with my personal style, so I delved into my suitcase and donned an outfit I affectionately named ‘Aphrodite.’

I thought this outfit was perfect for Croatia. I bought this super cute dress in the sale at Lof Boutique. I’m wearing a size S and I’m really sold! This outfit would be even cooler with a nice pair of red heels, but I refuse to do an entire city walk in stiletto heels from now on. That is also why I often go for block heels during my travels. This way you still wear heels, but comfortably and so that you don’t die of pain at the end of the day. [Lees meer…]

If there’s an outfit I’ve worn a lot in the past 3 years, it’s this classy look. Red is my favorite color and wearing red empowers me. When I wear this outfit, I feel elegant and confident, wearing a good outfit enhances that feeling. This classy look and this dress are timeless, so I expect to wear it often in the future. I once bought it at Diva Catwalk, and I don’t expect to ever get tired of this dress. When I was still participating in Miss Netherlands for Miss World, this dress was one I was often wearing.

It changed my life.

Not because of the beaches, the sunsets, or the endless tacos.

Mexico taught me that life can be bigger than the version I was settling for.

It was the first place that showed me freedom doesn’t come from having everything figured out, it comes from trusting yourself enough to take the next step.

It gave me lifelong friendships, unforgettable adventures, confidence I didn’t know I had, and the courage to build a life that feels like mine.

I arrived as someone looking for a holiday.

I left with a completely different perspective on what was possible.

And honestly?

A part of me never really came back. 🇲🇽✨

POV: You spent your 20s in beauty competitions.

People see the gowns, the crowns, the photos and the stage.

What they don’t see are the early mornings, the self-doubt, the courage it takes to keep showing up, and the growth that happens long after the spotlight fades.

My twenties taught me that beauty competitions were never really about beauty.

They were about finding my voice.
About learning confidence.
About standing on a stage when I was terrified.
About representing causes I care about.
About inspiring others to embrace who they are.

I had the honor of competing in:

✨ Miss World
✨ Miss Universe
✨ Miss Grand International
✨ Miss Cosmo
✨ Miss International (selected to represent the Netherlands internationally, later cancelled due to COVID)

The titles were never the biggest reward.

The friendships, lessons, resilience, opportunities, and the woman I became along the way will always mean more than any crown ever could.

To the younger version of me who dreamed of standing on those stages: we did it. 💫

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

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.
