In the light of the experience you have now, if you could give some advice to yourself as a fifteen-year-old, what would you say?
I’d tell myself that being nice, sweet and kind is a beautiful thing. Don’t let the world make you hard. That when people are mean, it’s because they have an inner unhappiness. Just shake it off, and quickly walk away from unhealthy situations, the ones that don’t serve you. It’s important to stand up for yourself. I’d tell myself to read people’s eyes. I’d tell myself to be brave in following your dreams, don’t be scared, voice what you want and truly desire, don’t be so shy about it. I’d tell myself to listen to that sixth sense, to that third eye, to be guided by those sensations, the energy, good or bad, that you sense from people and situations, your inner self always knows best, trust it, you really do have a good radar. I’d tell myself that no one will love you the way your family does, that true friends are rare and you have to really treasure them and nurture them. Oh my, I’d tell myself so many things, but I’m still learning. The more you grow up the more you realize how little you know.
What is your best quality and what is your biggest flaw? And what quality do you most appreciate in other people?
My best quality — my honesty. My worst — both my awareness and self-awareness. I love people that are honest and that translates in being honest in feelings, in who they are, in the way they move, in how they giggle. I like when people are natural and un-masqued. I like people who laugh and have empathy for others.
When is the best you feel about yourself?
When I am kinda happy and at peace and calm and excited all at once… those are the best days. When the inner energy is really good, you know? I could be alone or with the people I love.
I feel very good every time I come out of the ocean, feeling all salty under the sun, or every time I am under a waterfall or in a body of water, I love that feeling.
And my boyfriend, my best friends and my family have a way of making me feel really good about myself.
What’s the sexiest quality in a woman?
It’s a package. You know those women that feel at ease with themselves? They have a special light, they have history, they are not competitive with other women, they are confident, but never hard, never mean and, if they are, they are able to catch themselves and apologize, they are not jealous, they are happy for other people’s happiness. I like it when women are funnily self-deprecating, they laugh and cry, they are themselves, they have interests and stories and possess an open heart and a good sense of humor and intelligence, a sort of charisma. It’s hard to explain, but those are the sexiest women to me.
