How did you start modeling? I was invited a couple of times on the streets and after two model girls invited me, in different occasions, in the same line bus in my city, I found that too much coincidence. Then I went there to check it out.

I love your blog and facebookpage!
The interviews and questions you have are great.
By that you kinda get to know the models.
I have noticed that the biggest misconception about models is that they're stupid, I hate that!
Btw, it would be handy if had a search bar. Because I wanted to search for all of your interviews, but then I need to go trough the archives..
Love the blog!!
