How discovered:<\/strong>
\nIt’s a funny story. I was in the local supermarket that i have next to my apartment in Barcelona, where I\u00b4m studying, and I noticed some random guy looking at me through the grocery aisles and I did\u00b4t give it much importance, until the second or third time that I saw him, he came to me and apologized for stalking me and told me he was working for this model agency, gave me his card and told me that I should give it a try. I never thought about myself being a model but some weeks after I was checking the website of the card I was given and though why not? it could be a cool experience. So I went to meet with them, and the rest is history. Sometimes you have to be brave and try things that you never thought you could do, and that\u00b4s how you get surprised in life. This is one of those times. <\/p>\n

Favorite things:<\/strong>
\nKitesurfing, Longboarding, Bow shooting, Snowboarding, and since I live right on the beach, I can\u00b4t imagine now live without it! <\/p>\n

What are you listening to at the moment?<\/strong>
\nElsa Ocean, drum-n-bass, electronic music. <\/p>\n

Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong>
\nTroya , Aleksandr, Save Soldier Ryan, and of course I’m obsessed with Games of Thrones. Who isn’t? <\/p>\n

Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong>
\nTo wear casually I like surf clothes, but I also have some fun DSquared clothes that I wear a lot. I love their jeans! And for fragrance, always Armani. <\/p>\n

What would you be doing if you weren’t modeling?<\/strong>
\nTo do business in international trade, currently passing exams after second year at UPF (Pompeu Fabra University)<\/p>\n

What’s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong>
\nActually\u2026 to me is very cool, studying Chinese just for fun. People don’t understand how I can invest so much time learning a language so difficult just for fun, but I really enjoy it, and I am getting quite good at it<\/p>\n

Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong>
\nAs of now I’ve done some cool editorials in Spain, but there was this one where I dress up as a Luke Skywalker and to me that was such a fun shoot. Now I just got to Milan for my first fashion week and hope to bring me nice memories as well. <\/p>\n

What’s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong>
\nMany things, but right now I am especially proud of Jamala, the singer who just won the Eurovision song contest, because it meant a lot for my country<\/p>\n

Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong>
\nI would like to be in a show for a Japanese designer like Yohi Yamamoto and shoot with Mert & Marcus, they are amazing! <\/p>\n

Place you would love to visit:<\/strong>
\nChina so I could practice my Chinese or Japan, I love Asia. <\/p>\n

Currently you’re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong>
\nUniversity exams, also finding time to study between castings in Milan fashion week meanwhile I try to enjoy the whole experience. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
