How were you discovered?

Boxers or briefs?
Boxers

What are your interests?
I played hockey on a professional level for many years. Then I had an injury and the doctor said that it was not possible to play anymore. I was really sad, because I love the game so much. I still play sometimes, but only with my friends for fun.

Very professional! I love to work with them.

Do you like your hair blond?
Actually I liked. Now I am back to brown 🙂
