Outfit | Flora

24/06/2023 | Reageer

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 | Marrakech

29/05/2023 | Reageer

Yesterday afternoon I came back from Marrakech. I was given an amazing opportunity to travel to Marrakech for a week. It was for a special circumstance and to stay there for a very special occasion. I am also very grateful that this came my way. In the near future, there will be a lot of posts online from the trips I’ve made lately. Because outfit posts also take a lot less time and I often have collab deadlines, I often post the outfits first and then the travel posts.

Outfit | Brussels

21/05/2023 | 1 Reactie

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.

Outfit | Meteora

I bought this dress vintage on Vinted. I really love the Lavish Alice brand, so I often look for cool pieces of vinted. In combination with a nice red lipstick, it gives me a Marilyn Monroe impression. The place where I took these beautiful pictures is the hostel where I stayed. My last two nights in the private were non-committal for me as a collaboration, and the restaurant where I took one of the photos was also non-committal – this look was for a collaboration. I am very grateful to have some great collaborations in Tulum. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Holbox

06/01/2023 | Reageer

A month ago I came back from Mexico. What a journey this was! A very emotional one, but also one that has helped me grow a lot and one where I have met a lot of great people. The beautiful place where I took these photos is on the island of Isla Holbox at beach club Zomay. I’ve had this dress for years and I really wear it in a lot of summer places. It’s a dress that never gets boring! I received this hat a few months ago as a collab with Le Olive and I also like to take it on holiday. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Marina

11/11/2022 | Reageer

This outfit gives me barbie vibes. I love to wear pink. I bought this two-piece for Valencia and/or Mexico this year. No collaboration by the way! This two piece is size 36 from Missguided on Zalando. My 8th trip of this year is coming up! Very grateful that I am able to do this because of my crew tickets and I certainly don’t take this for granted. There will be no Valencia travel diary because I am way behind with my other travel posts, my camera broke and I wanted to have all the focus on my travel friend – although I love blogging!

Outfit | Lisboa

12/10/2022 | Reageer

Hi everyone, I am very behind with my travel diaries haha! It just takes a lot of time and love. Before I travel again in November, I hope to have both Colombia and Lisbon online. This outfit is from a few days ago in Lisbon. Lisbon is my favorite city in Europe, which is why I am visiting it for the fourth time. I also took pictures in outfit mint at this same spot during my previous trip in Lisbon. Lisbon is a city full of good restaurants, nice colorful pictures, nice parties and lovely people, which is why it is becoming increasingly popular! P.s, due to some people standing still (on purpose) in the background, I had to photoshop them away.. haha. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Ultimo

30/09/2022 | Reageer

This post is the last outfit post I upload from Colombia. With my next trip coming up, I try to put all my travel posts online as soon as possible. I have worn this outfit quite a few times while traveling there, which is why they are not the same in every photo. I think this really is in the top 5 of my favorite travel outfits from this year. The end of the year is not so far from now, but I still have 3 beautiful trips planned. For the 4th time to Lisbon, 3rd time to Valencia and for the second time to Mexico. Very excited! These photos were taken at hotel Movich rooftop and in the historic center of Cartagena. [Lees meer…]

Outfit | Getsemani

29/09/2022 | Reageer

In the meantime I have not even been back for 10 days from my beautiful Colombia trip. I did this outfit shoot together with Karmen Cartagena – this is also really my favorite outfit from Cartagena and I think it fits perfectly with this place. These photos were taken in beautiful Getsemani. If you are looking for a nice photographer during your trip to Cartagena, I highly recommend her. I did this shoot during my last day in Cartagena. I wanted to have guaranteed good photos of my solo trip. I got about 20% off the original price on this shoot, as a partial collaboration. [Lees meer…]

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. πŸ‡²πŸ‡½βœ¨

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. πŸ’«

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? πŸ˜‚

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.
