The truth is nothing, what you see is what there is, I don’t have a character and it’s comfortable, I just flow and let life surprise me.
At reality is there a script to follow or does everything you see happen naturally?
We do not have a script, we are 20 people who live more than 16 hours a day, therefore we experience different types of feelings since we come from different countries, different points of view, there will always be a crossword or someone attracts you and finally we are in a bubble. Finally each one is exposed to bring out the best or the worst of one by the same pressure.

As for Jorge and Renier, very beautiful boys and an incredible personality, unfortunately there are many factors for the decision to enter into a relationship and well in the process of meeting each other it did not work and today we are very good friends. AND referring to Sebas, I have great affection for him, we have had a somewhat uneven relationship, but who knows what might happen between us tomorrow.

Of course, it is the idea, if I fall in love it is in its totality and the man who decides to accompany me, well, in good time.

Don Day, never in my life have I met a person who despite adversity is always smiling, a very good friend, he is missed a lot, he always made our day with his jokes.

The force of love is what moves the world. They are such for which, they love each other without limits and if they made that decision it is because they could no longer be without each other and now that they are, I wish them the best for them.
