Nice: Máxima shares rare selfie

Is a selfie world news? Well, mine absolutely isn't. But if you're the queen of the Netherlands, it certainly is. Because we mostly see Queen Máxima posing for photos, in official settings. Not while she's taking the royal dog out for a walk on this Blue Monday, named Mambo. Well, sometimes they're just like you and me, right?

But seriously, I find it quite funny and nice to see. The photo was posted on the royal house's Instagram account, with the following message: ‘Moving is good for your physical but also for your mental health, especially if it can be done outside. Today, on Blue Monday, I'm going for a long walk. You too?’ – Máxima.

And not entirely unimportant: how cute is that little dog? I'm immediately curious how they came up with that name. Did they have long discussions at home about what it should be? And how did they end up with Mambo? In any case, it has worked as motivation for me. I'm going for a walk too.
