Despite looking shy something magical happens when I&#8217;m on stage or in front of a camera. All my shyness melts away, and it feels like I&#8217;m the only person in the spotlight, fully embracing the moment.<br \/>\n2. I&#8217;ve lived on three different continents. China, Suriname, and I&#8217;ve been in the Netherlands for nearly four years now. Growing up in such diverse cultures has given me a rich, international perspective on life.<br \/>\n3. I can never sit still and do nothing. This constant move has allowed me to learn a variety of skills. I&#8217;m currently studying to become a UX\/UI designer and front-end developer, and I also teach Chinese. Of course, alongside all this, I continue to model. My life is always bustling with activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 One thing people may be surprised to find out about you:<\/strong><br \/>\nPeople are often surprised when they try to guess my background. Many assume I&#8217;m from Asia, but I was actually born and raised in Suriname, a country in South America just above Brazil.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Tell us about your hometown.<\/strong><br \/>\nI consider both Shixixiang, Qingtian in China, and Commewijne in Suriname to be my hometowns. Shixixiang, Qingtian, China: The best thing about Shixixiang is its natural beauty, which is surrounded by mountains. As a child, I would often skip breakfast and climb the mountains to visit my great-grandparents. However, the education system there was extremely stressful. At four years old, I was already learning multiplication when all I wanted to do was play.<br \/>\nCommewijne, Suriname: The best thing about Commewijne is that it&#8217;s always summer. The sunny weather and green trees always lift my spirits. The food is also delicious. The downside is the safety compared to China. It&#8217;s not as secure, which is a constant concern.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-3 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-73017 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit05.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit05.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-73034\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-73034'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-73032\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-73032'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit06.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-3\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_jessepit06.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-3-73033\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-3-73033'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy courtesy Jesse Leppen\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"name-title\">Jesse<\/div>\n<div class=\"writeup\">\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nJesse Leppen \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/jessepit42\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@jessepit42<\/a> \u2014 German from Muenster, Germany \u2014 born August 28th \u2014 190 cm \/ 6&#8217;3&#8243; \u2014 he\/him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Mega-Model-Agency\">Mega Model Agency (Hamburg &#8211; mother agency)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 How did you become a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nI got told I should try my luck, applied at Mega, and here I am now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are 3 interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\n1.

For example, I love The Gremlins, and I also love the design of some creatures from &#8220;The Neverending Story.&#8221; I love seeing original sketches and drawings of the entire process of their creation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are 3 interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\n1. I love playing the guitar, especially the electric guitar. I have been playing it for about 7 years now, so now I am able to make more perfected solos, and I have a great time when I am playing them.<br \/>\n2. Although I have very red hair, I am the only one in my entire family; in fact, no one has ever been even a little red; I don&#8217;t know where it comes from.<br \/>\n3. I like to go to abandoned places, especially houses because I have a great time and it is an adventure in the style of The Goonies; in fact, recently, on one of the excursions, we went to a place, but while going, we found another impressive abandoned mansion, and we were all amazed since we didn&#8217;t even know it existed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 If you were to choose a song that symbolizes this current phase of your life, what would it be and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nThis answer is clear to me, &#8220;Never Gonna Give You Up&#8221; by Rick Astley is a song that if you hear its name, you probably don&#8217;t know it, but if you listen to it, you will quickly realize what it is. About three years ago, I heard it for the first time, and I didn&#8217;t pay much attention to it; it just seemed like just another song, but as time went by, I listened to it again, and I loved it, so much so that I played it every day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-6' class='gallery galleryid-73017 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong04.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zara Wong\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong04.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-73043\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-73043'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zara Wong\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zara Wong\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong02.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-73041\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-73041'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zara Wong\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Zara Wong\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2024\/09\/mdcselects_zarawong03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-73042\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-73042'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Zara Wong\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"name-title\">Zara<\/div>\n<div class=\"writeup\">\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nZara Wong \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/_zarawong\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@_zarawong<\/a> \u2014 Australian\/Chinese from Sydney, Australia \u2014 born May 23rd \u2014 172 cm \/ 5&#8217;8&#8243; \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Chadwick-Models\">Chadwick Models (Sydney &#8211; mother agency)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What&#8217;s a favorite book\/movie\/TV show, and why do you love it?<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are so many to choose from, but my favorite book is &#8220;Just Kids.&#8221; I love the raw honesty in Patti Smith&#8217;s narration, and her passion for the arts truly shines through.
