Hi! It’s a pleasure for me too! My name is Simona Viktorova Andonova and a photo model. I was born in Bulgaria but I moved to Italy when I was eight years old.
What is your fashion style like?
Well, my style changes a lot according to my mood. My boyfriend often jokes about it as he fell in love with an angelical girl, kissed a femme fatale, went on picnics with a country girl and spent time with a rocker.
Do you have any favorite quotes you like to use in life?
Make the impossible possible.
Self love is the greatest middle finger.
How do you usually spend your weekends?
I usually spend my time shopping, going to the cinema, taking walks with my boyfriend or staying with friends.
What have you always wanted to do but have yet to find the time for it?
Travel around the world.
If you could time travel, what will you like to witness or experience?
I would like to see the world when there was more nature and less pollution. (And also win the lottery).
On a scale of 1-10, how much of a party animal are you?
Does 0 count? Seriously, I’m not a party animal at all, but I really enjoy spending time with my friends.
What do you not get about guys?
How they do not get tired of flirting with me.
Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Simona. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?
Sexy is being confident and mysterious, knowing when to speak (and what to say) and being able to attract people with a simple action or word.
Hi, it’s a pleasure for me to be interviewed by SimplySxy. So to begin I was born in Moldova and I came to Italy when I was nine years old. I lived on an island in Tuscany and then I studied in Pisa and now I’m living in Milan.

What do you love most about being a model?
Like in every job there are positive and negative aspects but what I love the most is the artistic part, to create something new, something that didn’t exists before. Hoping to do always better. I’m also interested in taking photos, not just posing so this two components help me to do better in each role.
Do you have a beauty regime to looking so fabulous?
Ehm, not really no. I just wash my face in the morning and in the evening and I put a moisturizing cream. At least onces a week I do I scrub and a mud mask. These are really simple steps, I don’t use a lot of products or expensive ones but I do pay attention to which products I use because I use only ecological and biological cosmetics for my face and my hair also.

Are there any guilty pleasures you for food that you can’t live without?
Let’s start with the fact that I’m a fresh new vegan and I will be vegan for the rest of my life. I didn’t find this choice difficult or suffering because I really believe in what I do. So to come back to your question, there isn’t a specific food, I just love food in general, I love to eat a little bit of everything every time, I like to try every dish possible. Of course I eat sometimes junk food but I try not to. I’ll tell you some foods I love: mango, avocado, pop corn etc..
Have you ever felt nervous before a photoshoot?
Yes, sometimes I feel nervous when I don’t know the photographer I’m shooting with. But when I start posing, I relax and every tension is gone.
Where is your dream holiday destination?
I don’t have one destination of my dreams. I dream to visit all of the world. I know it’s quite difficult but I can try. Of course one of my top destinations is Paris and I’m going there so I’m very excited. I always dreamed about Japan now that I think about it. I’ve always been fascinated by their world, so different, like a magic place out of the world.

If you could have a super power, what will it be?
The superpower that I would like to have is without doubt teleportation. I’m often travelling and it’s a beautiful part of the travel too but I would save a lot of time and money. Imagine being one moment in Milan and the moment after in Japan for example and again in Milan, wonderful.
How often do you get guys coming up to you to get to know you?
Not so often as you think I guess. On socials like every day but I can just ignore them, it’s more easy. In real life not so easy. I think that I am used to it not just like a photomodel but like a woman. I’m not a supermodel and I’m not famous so I’m a normal girl in the every day life and I manage with boys like every girl, I kindly say that I’m not interested.
One thing I don’t like about all this situations is that I love getting to know new people and I try being nice to everybody but maybe someone could misunderstand this kindness with an other type with interest.
Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Ania. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?
Interesting question, I can only think about one definition of sexy and it’s self confidence, about your body of course but most important is self-confidence of you as a person, knowing your values, your capabilities, appreciate and accept all aspects of you. I know it’s not easy at all but with time we can work on these and get always a better person and sexier in consequence.
