What is a typical day like for you?
Mmm a typical day. Some days I get up early and others late. When I have castings I like to get up very early and others at noon to do some exercise. I do streching and fighting sports and I´d like to pick up yoga because it makes you better in controlling your emotions. I live with my boyfriend for a year and a half at his parents home, so on a typical day I also help with the household things; cooking fascinates me! And I have just discovered a passion for ironing haha.
What is beauty?
Beauty is love. It is all I see. We live in a wonderful world but it makes me very sad to see people stop believing in love. If we lived in a world that is moving and doing all around love it would be amazing, seriously. But I think it might happen. I believe in love.
What makes you special?
I think I’m not the typical girl. I never was. We all have a purpose in life and mine is to love. For some it may seem stupid but for me it is not. Everyone should love more and act more according to love. I am sure that this would save the world.
The best thing about being a model. And the worst?
The best thing is that I love my job (laughs). It’s fun that I have the opportunity to travel and I think people pay more attention to what you say, so it is a good way to send a message. The worst is that it is a job where you are very exposed to what they tell you, sometimes that can hurt you, so you got to be strong. It is not a job for everyone.
Where can we find you on a Friday night?
Friday night you can find me in bed with my super cup of tea watching movies or series (laughs). The truth is that I lost the taste for the night. I became a grandmother. But right now I love it that way.
Where do you see yourself in the future?
In the future I see myself happy. Doing what I love to do. Later I would like to start a family with my boyfriend. Supporting him in his career and just spreading the message of love.
If you had the chance to go back in time and change one thing, what would you change?
Nothing, I´m happy with the life I have.
