- Do you live where you want to live?
- Yes, without doubt. I have travelled a lot and am very sure that I love Barcelona. I feel very happy here, I have my family, my friends, manage my modelling career here, etc. For me it is the perfect place, where I can find a bit of everything.
- Would you like to move? Why and where to?
- No. I have been lucky enough to be able to choose where I live.
- Do you spend time in your neighbourhood and with your neighbours? Do you have the shops you need nearby (baker's, grocer's, dry cleaner's)?
- Yes, I like spending time in my neighbourhood, I think it is the best way to have a good quality of life, because you can be close to others in a big city where nobody knows you.
- As well as doing your daily shopping (if you do it) do you have places and services for all your needs?
- If I have time, I like to do my own daily shopping. I really can find all I need in my neighbourhood.
- Do you stroll around your own neighbourhood for pleasure or do you go elsewhere?
- I like to discover new areas which were totally unknown for me until recently. I have had some very pleasant surprises discovering new panoramic views of the city, or maybe public libraries, or enchanting little alleyways. The truth is that I like going to all the areas, it is the only way to begin to know this city. Barcelona is bigger than it seems!
- Which are your favourite cinemas, theatres and clubs?
- I tend to go for the film or play I want to see rather than where it is on. Despite this, one of the best places to see a play or go to a concert is at the Teatre Grec. I find it magical to be in the open air, in the summer, sitting in an amphitheatre.
- And which are your favourite restaurants, bars and cafés?
- I like to vary them and discover new ones. For example, areas such as Born or Gràcia are full of small, enchanting places to have dinner, a "pica-pica" or have a few drinks. I also like eating in Barceloneta.
- Is there any public area where you like to go, to sit and chat?
- I like to go to Barceloneta beach, to chat with my friends, while having a drink or an ice cream in one of the beach xiringuito. I also enjoy walking and chatting in the Sentmenat park, by the Desert de Sarrià.
- When you have to act as a guide for visitors, where do you take them?
- Firstly, all they ask to see, typical of the city, and once I have done the "tourist route", I show them the city where I live (my neighbourhood, my workplace, where I go shopping, etc.). The truth is, there is a lot to see in Barcelona, it is a very complete city.
- What is the most appropriate, funny or surprising adjective you have heard to describe Barcelona? Which one would you use?
- At the moment I can't think of one, but what I do find is that when I am travelling and I say I am from Barcelona, there is always a conversation about how marvellous the city is, and those who have never been are dying to visit. I would say that Barcelona is in fashion.
- Of where, between the sea and Tibidabo, do you have the most memories?
- My neighbourhood of Les Corts and also Sarrià, where I studied and lived for many years.
- Which is the best place (a park, a café, a seat in the city) to have a romantic date, or to be able to whisper sweet nothings to a loved one?
- The breakwaters (a classic or what?), or the Parc de Collserola.
- What colours or smells, when you see or smell them anywhere in the world, remind you immediately of Barcelona?
- The damp smell of the sea and the black and yellow of the taxis.
- When you have had to leave the city for a while, what have you missed most?
- Being able to read the newspaper on a Sunday, next to the sea, while having an aperitif, or a rice dish with a cool wine for example. But, in fact, I miss everything about the city, my people, my neighbourhood and my daily routine.
- Which of the changes that have been made in the city recently are you happiest with?
- The view of the sea from the city and the by-passes.
- What don't you like, and what would you do to change it?
- I think the underground network needs extending.
- Add anything you would like to say, and that we haven't asked
- That I have always felt proud to be from Barcelona. I like living in, and I love, the city.
