Quotes:

"At the age of 13, I watched a movie and I'm like, Oh my gosh, this is so beautiful. And I want to do that. It's very intuitive. I decided to do more of it. And actually, at that age, I'm still the same and have the same characteristics that I have today. When I feel very excited about things, I really want to do that. And I go without looking left or right, I go for it and I'm still like that"

"Well, then my parents and my family, they also told me maybe do something like a normal job. As well, besides dancing, besides art, just in case, you know what people say, it's just in case you break your leg, just in case you can't move anymore, then you have something else in your CV."

"I have to explain to people the way I'm living almost once. Let's say once a week somewhere. Yeah, it started actually. And at that point where I really decided myself to put my energy totally into dance and also into traveling. These are two points and two things which are, which many people in society have a problem with. That you have freedom, that you can, I mean. Fill your days with things you love"
