Two weeks ago, I surprised my good friend Demi in Brussels! Demi lives in Dubai and works for Emirates, so we don’t see each other often. Her friend Robin, who works at the airport, came up with the idea to surprise Demi. He devised a plan where a friend would pretend to take photos of Demi at a spot in Brussels she had always wanted to visit.

Hi allemaal! Het is inmiddels precies drie weken geleden dat ik terugkwam van mijn avontuurlijke reis naar Bali. Het is bijna onvoorstelbaar hoe snel de tijd vliegt; het voelt alsof ik er maanden geleden was. Terwijl ik door mijn foto’s blader, word ik weer helemaal teruggevoerd naar die magische momenten.

Last month I had a magical day in Ubud, Bali. In my dress, specially bought for Bali, I felt completely at home while I first explored a beautiful waterfall. The enchanting surroundings were breathtakingly beautiful and gave me a sense of peace and wonder.

Red isn’t just a color for me; it’s an expression of my inner strength and confidence. Whether it’s my nails flaunting a deep crimson hue, my clothing adding a touch of passion to my ensemble, or my lips cloaked in seductive red lipstick, there’s always a hint of red in my look. It’s not just my favorite color; it’s my secret weapon that gives me a boost of confidence wherever I go. [Lees meer…]

I have worn this jumpsuit dozens of times for years – in Outfit Puerto I also wear it in a different way. I think this outfit is super suitable for Tulum, the gold accessories complete it in my opinion. By the way, this is my last Tulum outfit post from this past trip. In any case, there will be 1-2 more travel diaries online from this trip and a travel diary soon from my 2nd foreign layover – Hurgada. I can’t wait to take you along in my travel stories!

Every time I come to Mexico I evolve. It feels like the place where my soul comes home and I feel the most confident, happy, grateful and powerful version of myself. Tulum is a place with a lot of magic and surprises that always come to mind when I follow my heart and go back. Cheers to the fact that this 4th time here won’t be my last. It is now my second home. Grateful for the fantastic network I have built here and how this place has become a second home for me since 2022. Whatever the circumstances and whatever comes my way – I haven’t let it stop me from going back, because the universe rewards those with a brave soul. In Tulum, I have the ultimate feeling of being myself. In my style, life and self. I also always wear my favorite outfits in Tulum. By the way, this beautiful location is Meteora Tulum – the boutique hostel I have been working with for a long time and was able to stay during my Tulum visit. Perfect location for photos!

Outfit | Floripa

23/12/2023 | Reageer

Last week I returned from Florianópolis – Brazil. Actually, immediately after the trip I became very ill. So sick that I checked with the doctor. I haven’t been as sick as I was last week in years. Apparently I had already developed stomach flu in Brazil, which manifested itself in the Netherlands. Fortunately, I have now almost recovered. Just in time for the holidays! I am very much looking forward to taking you along in my stories about Floripa soon. An incredibly safe, clean, fun and adventurous landscape in Brazil. I took the photos of this outfit around the Selina where I stayed for a few days. I also wore this nice outfit a few times in Tulum last year, but I only now took the time to take enough nice photos for an outfit post. [Lees meer…]

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…]

Outfit | Brussels

These outfit photos are from my four day layover in Brussels while working as a flight attendant. I had a very nice crew with me! Now that I’m home, I’m already preparing myself for a 7-day trip to Marrakech. A very nice surprise that I will tell you more about later. By the way, this is not a trip for my work as a flight attendant – we rarely stay at another destination, except for Dubai and occasionally Brussels. During this nice Brussels stay, we went out for dinner with two crews, had breakfast with two crews and on my last day had a coffee with a colleague in the city center.

(ChatGPT pic) Should I give pageantry one more chance? 👑 As the first Dutch Miss and Flight Attendant in Dutch history ✈️ 

After competing in most of the biggest pageants in The Netherlands, I honestly thought I was done.

Not because I stopped loving the stage…
But because after years of competing, I had seen enough behind the scenes to make me question whether I still belonged there or in this world ;) 

In 2021 I was supposed to represent my country in Japan. Like so many dreams that year, Covid had other plans.

Since then, I’ve experienced incredible highs, heartbreaking disappointments and moments of injustice (😉) that made me wonder if it was finally time to close this chapter.

But something has changed.

As I’m approaching my 30s, pageantry is finally opening its doors to women beyond their early twenties. And perhaps that’s exactly where my story truly begins.

I’m no longer interested in proving that I’m the prettiest woman in the room.

I want to prove that authenticity is powerful.
That resilience is beautiful.
That using your voice matters.

For years my mission has been standing up against bullying and encouraging others to embrace who they truly are. A project I have seen a lot of other pageant queens do afterwards as well ;)

Maybe that’s the crown I was always meant to wear.

So… should I step onto that stage one more time? 👑

Curious about your thoughts on my pageant veteran period!

The best things that ever happened to me started when;

I stopped waiting. 🌍✨

Some of the most beautiful memories of my life began with a table for one.

What’s one place you’ve always wanted to visit on your own? 🤍

Life moves so fast. These photos aren’t for algorithms - they’re little pieces of a life I never want to forget. If they inspire someone along the way, that’s just a bonus. 🤍✨

One day you’ll realize you were never “too much”. You were just in the wrong place, around the wrong people.

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.
