What’s one subject you could talk about for at least 5 minutes?
Food (always).
As a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?
A chameleon, haha.
If you could hang out with any three people who would you choose?
Jean Paul Sartre, Charles Baudelaire and Cioran… unfortunately they’re all a little bit dead…
What were you doing before modelling and do you miss it?
I was studying and was quite good most of all in literature languages and philosophy but school was not made for me. I’m glad I got to work so early.
What is one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
Actually when people ask me what is my background origin they’re always surprised. I don’t know exactly since one side of my family left the south of Spain while Franco was ruling: they were Andalusian gypsies (so they moved a lot before settling in the south west of France.)
What is a band/movie/artist/cool thing you recommend?
An artist. A friend of mine you should check his work: Julien Levy. I love cinema, music and arts in general so much I couldn’t say anything else than go to the movies the most you can there are so many interesting ones, go to museums and read a lot. Life isn’t worth a thing if you don’t take time to enjoy it. It’s short.
What do you see yourself doing after your modelling career?
Following my childhood idea: being a chameleon. I don’t want to get bored I will do plenty of things. For now my goal is photography and movie directing: visual arts for sure. That’s what I love most.
