How is a day well spent to you?
Well in a regular situation, I would say with family and friends, listening to good music, chatting about interesting and funny stuff literally vibing. But now I think that a well spent day is pretty much a productive day, where I can evolve and connect with myself.
What’s something that will always be in fashion, no matter how much time passes?
Our posture. The way we treat and approach others, education and good manners are never out of fashion.
What makes you roll your eyes every time you hear it?
I may not physically do it, but in my head, whenever people pronounce my name in the wrongly , even before or after I correct them, they may repeat the same mistake. That says a lot by the way… you’re not listening to me, period.
What small change greatly improves a person’s appearance?
Her self esteem. If she feels confident about herself and her imperfections.
What’s one question you can ask someone to find out the most about them?
“What’s that 1 thing that do you appreciate the most when it comes to people?”
What piece of entertainment do you wish you could erase from your mind so that you could experience it for the first time again?
Woww so many… I love cartoons, romantic comedy movies, contest shows and soccer matches. This is a hard one.
If you could have a video of any one event in your life, what event would you choose?
Probably a personal one. Moments with my family. People that are no longer here but gave me the best laughs, told me the best stories.
What is your motto for life?
I would most probably say the eager to learn. I’m inspired by the change and the adaptation curve that I’ve been exposed to all my life, therefore I believe that the joy of being able to reinvent myself through different ways of learning is my current motto.
