Just read this....🙏❤️🙏

“Try to travel, otherwise
you may become racist,
and you may end up believing
that your skin is the only one
to be right,
that your language
is the most romantic
and that you were the first
to be the first.
Travel,
because if you don’t travel then
your thoughts won’t be strengthened,
won’t get filled with ideas.
Your dreams will be born with fragile legs and then you end up believing in tv-shows, and in those who invent enemies
that fit perfectly with your nightmares
to make you live in terror.
Travel,
because travel teaches
to say good morning to everyone
regardless of which sun we come from.
Travel,
because travel teaches
to say goodnight to everyone
regardless of the darkness
that we carry inside
Travel,
because traveling teaches to resist,
not to depend,
to accept others, not just for who they are
but also for what they can never be.
To know what we are capable of,
to feel part of a family
beyond borders,
beyond traditions and culture.
Traveling teaches us to be beyond.
Travel,
otherwise you end up believing
that you are made only for a panorama
and instead inside you
there are wonderful landscapes
still to visit.”
- Gio Evan, poet and songwriter.
Translated from Italian.

And just like that.... Blue was here. Traveling has always been my biggest hobby, but since the 1st of February, it’s been joined by loving and staring at our baby! Welcome to this world, little boy, I cannot wait to show it to you. 💙

I have been very quiet lately on social media as I have been busy growing my company, but even more importantly: a little baby boy! 💙

The last 1,5 years have been proper life-changing on all fronts. After 11 years in Australia (which will always be my second home), my dad passed away, I got divorced, and I moved back to Europe to be closer to my family and friends.

Of course, I will keep my travel agency Book Travel and Tours going with the great help from Lian, as this is my other baby, but I am also aiming to take maternity leave. Very much looking forward to this new adventure!

How do you decide on what photo is the best? I clearly struggled as there are at least 400 Dusky dolphins to play with in Kaikoura! 🐬🐬🐬

This is the second time that I was able to swim with these fantastic creatures and they are just so much fun! If you play with the dolphins, they play with you!

Pm me if you want to know more or if you want to experience these magic moments yourself?

is one of my absolute favourite places in the world! 🌿🌿🌿

My first day was on board of the
, a combination of being aboard on their boat and followed up with a 8km walk.

The next day was so different with who showed me the marine reserve and you can even see seals from your kayak!

Both amazing experiences and totally different! Lucky me 🍀

Yay, finally saw the Wanaka tree with my own eyes!

Enjoyed a very hot 🥵 hot-tub at 40 degrees and had dinner at the best restaurant in Wanaka called Kika!

It is so good to be back in New Zealand!

Getting reacquainted with Riviera Maya after 6 years, how much it has changed! But, swimming in the ocean, eating the best food, seeing unexpected wildlife and spending time with loved ones never gets old 😎🥰🇲🇽🌮🌴

When you just have the best weather at pretty Lake McKenzie (the traditional lakes name is Boorangoora)!

It is a very special lake as it only contains rainwater, no groundwater, is not fed by streams or the ocean.

You can find this stunning lake at Fraser Island, the biggest sand island in the world!

Who is Book Travel and Tours?

I LOVE traveling! Who Am I? I was born and raised in the Netherlands. Luckily enough, I can call beautiful Australia my home since 2010. And I love, LOVE traveling! You can never travel enough. I traveled around Australia almost twice and in different ways such as with buses, on tours and by car. There are so many options when it comes to traveling in Australia but also everywhere in the world! You can go for guided groups, or maybe you prefer the small hostels and local transport. I’ll give you honest and real travel advice based on my own personal experiences. Call me more of a travel guru than a travel agent! Any questions about traveling please always let me know!

I have worked for the biggest backpacker travel agency in Australia and New Zealand for 6 years and since 2017 I have been helping my friends and family out with travel all over the world. Well, this is how it started, word of mouth is massive and especially with Dutch people.

Always let me know what you would like to do and what your wishes are! Don’t worry, I will ask you loads of questions too. There are so many different options when it comes to organizing a trip of a lifetime! I’ll always give you honest advice; I have done it myself and want to make your experience a personal and unforgettable memory. Everyone travels differently and has specific wishes. If you want real travel advice, tips, and help we have the option to email, WhatsApp, Skype or even Facebook. If you’re close by in Australia we can meet in person for a fruit smoothie, coffee or a wine for an even more personal planning experience. Whatever is better for you! 100% After Sales Service. There are always more questions, tips and support to give on the way so stay in contact.
