Style.<\/strong> \u201cI\u2019d describe my personal style as natural and simple, but sometimes fun. So the jacket I\u2019m wearing today would be the fun part of the outfit and the rest of it is simple. I got it from ZARA \u2013 bright colours and sparkles grabbed my attention. I usually buy clothes from the big stores. I\u2019m that kind of person, someone who\u2019s always cold. So especially in winter, I like to wear warm and comfortable clothes, because I also have to cycle every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

School and leisure outfits. <\/strong>\u201cIn the Netherlands, we can wear anything we want at university, so I\u2019ve noticed that when I go out in my leisure time, my clothes don\u2019t differ that much. What I may change is my hair, wearing it down, for example. I\u2019d rather dress up for special parties, like my rowing club\u2019s Gala last weekend, for which I wore a dress. Sometimes I also wear heels, but that\u2019s quite rare, considering that I\u2019m 181 cm tall.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hockey and rowing. <\/strong>\u201cIn my hometown, I used to play a lot of hockey and I might join the team here too. When I moved to Rotterdam, I became a member of SKADI rowing club. I practise rowing and I also coach beginners, but that\u2019s only once a week. I joined the club mostly for fun activities and the sense of community there. Fitness is my main form of sport right now. I do it around three times a week. So when I\u2019m socialising with friends, I like to do something relaxing, like eating together and watching films.\u201d<\/p>\n

Modelling work and study (im)balance. <\/strong>\u201cOver the past two years, I did a lot of things besides studying. I worked for a model agency, modelling for fashion and beauty brands in different projects, depending on the client. But I had to stop at the beginning of my second year of the Bachelor, because it\u2019s hard to combine this work with studies. Last year didn\u2019t go very well and I failed several courses. Modelling was taking a lot of time, and I had to travel abroad for some jobs, like to Milan and Istanbul. I can\u2019t afford to do that this year. I need to focus on studying. Regarding the future, I\u2019m not sure yet what I want to do, but I don\u2019t think that modelling would be my major career.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t
