HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! I turned 24 today! It feels

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I turned 24 today! It feels so old but at the same time I still feel (and look😂) 18. I'm so ready to take on this year and accomplish new things, set new goals and to dream even bigger.

I have always said that I'm a big dreamer and I really am. I'm such a day dreamer but especially this past year I decided to take action. So happy to be doing what I love - blogging, owning two businesses and freelancing. 😍

When I turned 22, I wrote a blogpost about 22 things I learned at 22. This time, at 24, I decided to create a 20s bucket list but more specifically: 24 things I want to do this year. Big dreams. Big goals. Big plans. The link to this blogpost is in my bio if you'd like to read it. ❤️

SO ready to take on this year, and let's be honest: age is just a number. This past year (and now) has been incredibly challenging for all of us. Here's to a better future. Cheers! 🎉🥂

Happy, cozy fall friday. 🍁🍄

Hiiii cozy fall walks! Ever since moving to the south of the Netherlands, I've fallen in love with walking in the forest. It keeps amazing me everytime I visit. This was today, on my pre-birthday walk during our second half-lockdown. 🎃

With this entire situation going on - travelling is not really possible for me. I might go more into the lifestyle photos combined with my old travel photos to still give you allllll the travel vibes! 😏🌴 But don’t worry, I’ll jump on the first plane outta here when I can ✈️

It's Friday and even though I currently work fulltime for myself, Fridays still make me excited! What are you guys doing this weekend? 🥰🙏🏼

Throwback to the good Dutch summer days 😍🌴 We’re full on in fall right now so I’m already reminiscing the summer times.

What’s your favorite summer 2020 memory? ☀️

We only regret the chances we didn't take. Cross that bridge! 🙏🏼👏🏼

If this time learned me one thing - it's that no one is guaranteed of a normal tomorrow. We only control NOW! I used to be afraid about what people thought of how I'm living my life - being judged on the decisions I make.

Not anymore. I started a second business Socialissa beside my travel blog and I got some questionable reactions about it, but it does not matter what other people think. I hope you're chasing after your dreams. Doing what you love, creating what you love. Because in the end, no one knows what YOU want better than you, despite what other people may assume! ❤️

Don't ever let anyone steal your thunder. Don't let opportunities go by because of others. In the end, we only regret the chances we did not take. Cross that bridge and start a new adventure. I wish I realized this when I was younger, because I would have done many more amazing things if I decided to follow my heart. 👏🏼

What's one life lesson you would give to your younger self? 🙏🏼

THE ULTIMATE MADEIRA BUCKET LIST! 🌳🌺 🌊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Someone asked me my favorite destination of all times and I had a hard time picking between Bali and Madeira. Both islands, both totally different. I did love the authentic and rural vibe of Madeira a lot though. This is what you need to write down on your bucket list if you're visiting Madeira! 🌎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 Take the cable car from Funchal to the Botanic Gardens. I made a reel of this cable car ride. The Botanic Gardens are absolutely gorgeous and give the best views of the island!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 Chase the waterfalls. Madeira has MANY waterfalls, mostly hidden or beside the road. You might know the famous waterfall road. This is where a waterfall is literally next to the road, it's stunning!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 Go hiking. Madeira has two big mountains to climb and you need to hike to the top. You're above the clouds and will feel on top of the world. Hiking the levada trails are amazing too!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👉 Taste the poncha. So the poncha is something else - it's a local alcoholic drink made from (lots of) rum and orange juice or something like that. SO strong but you gotta try it, I suggest ordering the poncha in a local bar!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Read the rest of the 15 Madeira bucket lists activites on my blog! What would you write down on your bucket list?

WHERE WOULD YOU GO NOW? 😍🌎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Where would you go if you could go anywhere right now? Not worrying about the current situation around COVID-19, not worrying about money or our jobs. 🌻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What would your dream destination be right now? I love thinking about this, especially during these hard times. Travel makes me happy. 🌈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I would go to Paris, explore the neighborhoods where I'd like to live. Then I'd travel to the south of France, along the coast down to Portugal. After this, I'd travel to Bali for a few weeks and eventually go backpacking through Australia. 🏝 ✈️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It is important to dream, to have goals and to not be afraid of sharing them. This would honestly be a dream trip for me!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now it's your turn! What would your dream trip be right now? 😍

Do you love planning your life or going with the f

Do you love planning your life or going with the flow? I've always been the one to plan her entire life. I decided to go to nursing school when I was about 6 years old (not kidding), and knew exactly where I wanted to work in a hospital. 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Shockingly, life turned a different direction. I had to stop nursing school and my mind went blank. After years and years of planning, my plan fell apart and I had no clue what to do. 🤯
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I ended up where I want to be and have no clue what the future holds. I'm a graduated tourism manager which is nice, learned lots about online marketing which is extremely handy with my own business and I love where I am in life.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I became someone who goes with the flow. Who does not have a plan in mind for the future. What will I do? No clue. Where will I live? No clue. And that's okay. I love going with the flow because it does not matter to me where I'll be in 5 years. I want to be happy. Happy with who I am and what I provide to the world. 💖🙏🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I used to plan my travel trips like crazy. Wanting to do it all and see it all. I still love to make a list of things I'd love to see and do, but I also create more freedom and leave room for spontaneous actions. 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want to enjoy life every single day. I don't want anyone to tell me what I should do or how I should live my life. Just because things have been done a certain way for years does not mean we have to follow the same footsteps. 🔥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are your thoughts on this? ☁️
