Carolien thought she would never say it, but she is going to seriously enjoy sports and all of that in between the hard work. Are you reading along?

Meet the crazy cast of Sneekweek… We have so much fun with this group, you would almost forget that we are shooting a thriller! Last week we got to let loose at the fair in Sneek during the real Sneekweek. Bumper cars, cotton candy, fishing for ducks, shooting: bizarre to call that ‘work’! The last shot was only in such a terrifying upside-down thing where you spin circles in the air: at that moment I wished for a ‘normal’ office job...

Now that I have to travel back and forth to Sneek, I leave the house every day loaded with stuff. I was already a fan of the backpack hype, but when I saw this specimen from Croque, I became completely ecstatic! The bag is made of cork, so it's super light and very handy to take from set to set. During sailing, I leave it on shore, or would it float in the water?

Every year I look forward to this moment: the Parade is back in Amsterdam! Read: two weeks of drinking wine, tasting all the food stalls, and discovering amazing performances.

If you've never been: GO! The performance ‘Live Jukebox’ is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and has been one of the biggest success performances of the Parade all these years.

The food is a bit disappointing this year, but luckily the homemade poffertjes are a huge hit as always! My record is three portions in one evening… Try me people, try me.

After all those poffertjes, I had to train twice as hard the next day. I never expected to say this, but I'm starting to really enjoy exercising. No panic, I won't become a bodybuilder and train every day. But if I haven't been for a week, I really crave those squats and sit-ups again. Something about producing substances that make you happy, the same substance found in chocolate. If you could get abs from eating 10 bars...

Between the shoots of Sneekweek, I also play a guest role in the series ‘Danni Lowinski’. Actress Marlijn Weerdenburg has been playing the role of Danni for four seasons now and she does it fantastically! I play a model who sees her first cover being pierced through her nose. That's why she asks Danni for help, but it's not so easy to help this girl! To be continued...
