The climate wasn’t the only thing heating up in Thailand’s idyllic island of Koh Samui this month. With twelve of our stunning models on tour, MAXIM Australia and New Zealand brought its own level of hotness to host location Panorama Summit Samui. Welcome to Destination MAXIM…
Tell us a bit about yourself.
I was born in Australia but during my years growing up my dad would always move for work which meant the family would pack up every so often and move interstate or even countries. I’ve been to several different schools and many different countries, so from this I have been travelling since being in my mother’s womb. I feel I was born for the travelling life.
What would people be most surprised to know about you?
That I am half Thai – people get so surprised because they can’t see it, initially. Their guesses would be more headed towards the exotic ethnicity.
What is your best asset?
My eyes, cheeky bum and good banter.
When do you feel sexy?
After I’ve finished at the gym, no make-up and hair in a messy bun embracing my natural self.
Describe your Destination MAXIM experience.
MAXIM has given me a whole new outlook on “beauty” and there were things I thought I could never do or wouldn’t do, but I am SO glad I took the leap of faith!
What was the highlight of your Destination MAXIM trip?
Being able to venture off with the other girls when I wasn’t shooting or filming and exploring the island. Oh, and of course the stunning villas.
What’s the most attractive quality in a guy?
A kind heart and confidence.
What have you learned about men over the years?
It’s OK to not be OK – show your vulnerable side to a woman and connect on a deeper level because this is most sexy.
Tell us something new happening in your life right now?
I’m planning to travel to multiple places soon!
