What would your friends say to describe you?
My friends would say that I'm the kindest person they'd know, really optimistic, down to earth, fighter, simple/practical in most ways & a loooot of patience but be aware of my limits hehe!
If someone visits the place where you live, where would you take him/her?
Although I live a couple of mins away from my city, Valencia. I would definitely take that specific person to the city centre to appreciate the stunning arquitectural buildings, main monuments such as the bull ring and of course to experience the finest Mediterranean cuisine, especially our Valencian Paella. Another attraction and face of Valencia is " La ciudad de las artes y las ciencias ". A breath taking and abstract location.
Describe your ideal girl.
My ideal girl would be a simple & classy but at the same time a beauty that I'd recognise a mile away! Mixed race girls! A combination of cultures.
What made you decide to join a beauty pageant?
I wanted to show the beauty within a person and the background behind my face. Express it not just with looks but with actions and what better way to do it than with a pageant! Nowadays pageants also have talent sections and there you can show your hidden features!
Aside from winning Misters of Filipinas, what is your proudest accomplishment in your life so far?
In my young life such as travelling and getting to know different cultures & lifestyles, having the opportunity to enter university are already accomplishments but it would be another to get my degree someday. I've helped my dad fix cars and replace engines so I'm mechanically advanced so achieving those things are accomplishments too. Sports related since I was involved in acrobatics, athletics (being on top at a national level) & football at a younge age, although it didn't turn out positive, yet alone those experiences are accomplishments.
What is your motto in life?
My motto in life has always been go with the flow but although flowing through life and taking it easy can be satisfactory and less stressful but sometimes you need to guide the flow to the right direction. "Go with the right flow"
What makes you sexy?
Sexiness is not just about looks but the sexy mind behind it. So for me general intellectual knowledge, my funny hysterical side or spontaneity could be considered as sexy but of course you need to adapt yourself to any situation and apply the sexiness appropriately but I'd like to thank my parents as well for my genes!
If it were your last day on earth, what would you eat and why?
The last meal I'd eat would be my mother's own German "Spätzle mit Rahm soße" (homemade noodles with sauce) Just to get the last amazing taste bud burst!!
What do you like to do for fun?
I'm a very sporty person, so I play football, go snowboarding & do calisthenics. Another thing I'd do for fun would be to go out, socialise with my friends, do whatever recreational activity and even online by playing some videogames! Singing is also a fun hobby I'd like to do so I sometimes record songs but those songs I hope to release one day through my YouTube channel!
What should your supporters expect from you in the upcoming Man of the Year pageant in Thailand?
I'll show my own personality, style and looks. Especially respect and sportsmanship against my co-candidates. Things that describe my entire person. The idea is to be unique but not overdoing it since it can seem a bit arrogant, just staying humble is the best way!Especially respect and sportsmanship against my co-candidates.
