Describe your idea of a perfect day:
Wake up early, have a good breaksfast and check my instagram. Play some piano toghether with my little sister. Go for a walk to the beach and take a swim in the sea. After I would chill down on the beach and listen to some music. Go for a coffee with my family and have a lunch at a cosy bar. Visit the city for some shopping with my friends. After we go to my place and watch a movie. End the day with a nice diner at a restaurant with family and friends. Love to be around with them.
What’s one subject you could talk about for at least 5 minutes?
Fashion. I love to talk about it with people, it gives me new ideas. It’s nice to hear each other’s opinion about brands, clothes etc. Working as a model makes me talk about this subject at least everyday haha.
What were you doing before modelling and do you miss it?
Before this I was in school and I worked in a luxury designer store. I always liked fashion, so I started working as a salesman when I was 16 years old. I learned a lot there about fashion. Of course I miss it a bit, but working as a model is more exciting and a great experience.
If you could go on date a with any famous person (from now or history), who would you choose and why?
It depends.. Normally seen with Johnny Depp, he really inspires me. I like him as an actor and per- son. He did so many different characters in movies and still he does a good job every time. I also like his way of dressing, the cool rock & roll look. But if you mean like a real date with a girl, I would choose Gigi Hadid. I think she looks so cute and beautiful. I don’t know her in person so I would like to meet her, so if you read this Gigi, let’s meet up somewhere 😉
What’s something in your hometown you think every visitor should do or see?
Maastricht is a beautiful historical place. Watch the the town walls, lovely streets and shops. Have a drink at one of our cosy coffeebars and order some ‘vlaai’ (it’s like a kind of cake, definitely try this!).
