    Yoga Teacher & Model Jane Wong

    I usually wear European-American style and sometimes a little Chinese classic style. I like to explore different brands as different brands have their own different designs and styles. I do not have a specific brand that I love though.

    How often do you workout and what is your regime like?

     I workout almost every day for at least one hour. Sometimes I do need an off day too, hehe.. 

    I am a yoga teacher, I maintain my yoga practice at least four times a week. Sometimes I will go jogging outdoors and breathe fresh air, looking at the green scenery. It will be two to three days of outdoor jogging a week. I am a vegetarian and I usually eat less for my dinner as our body does not need to burn any energy during night time when we are getting ready to sleep. That’s how I keep myself healthy and stay active.

    Has a lot changed in your life since you joined and won beauty pageants such as Miss Southeast Asia Malaysia?

    I would say yes and no.

    The YES would be the inner growth in me when I represent my home country – Malaysia. How proud would I be as I am bringing my home country’s culture to the international stage and showing how wonderful Malaysia’s culture is. I never even realized how beautiful my country is.

    The NO would be because I am a low profile person. I did have more sponsors and collaborations however, I wouldn’t feel that I am somebody instead. I am still who I am 🙂

    If you could meet anyone past or present, who will it be?

    If I could meet anyone past or present, I would say all my yoga teachers who conducted the Yoga Teacher Training courses in India. I had my certificate during the pandemic when the whole world had locked down. They are the teachers who live in India and conduct all the courses online. How I wish I could be there and feel the vibes and energy in the town of Yoga, Rishiksh, India.

    Is there something you’ve always wanted to do but have yet to find the time for it?

    Well, I would say there are plenty of things I wanted to do. However, I have managed to make it somehow. During the lockdown period, I have learnt and done so many things that I have always wanted to do but have yet to find time. That was the best period of time for me to try and experience it. Such as having my Yoga Teacher Training courses, meditation courses, baking, cooking, gardening and so on. I learned to cook during the lockdown period and it really changed me, haha. I enjoyed all these and I gained my experiences too.

    Have you been in an embarrassing situation before that is funny now when looking back?

    I had one but I wouldn’t say that was embarrassing, hahaha. Few years back, I was travelling with my two besties at P.Redang. We went on a sea turtle trip. Both of them were screaming and shouting when the tea turtle swam closer to them, everyone was looking at the three of us, even the other group of people were staring at us too. I felt kind of embarrassed when everyone looked at us. We were laughing when we came back from the trip. I told them that I felt so “paiseh” to be in the same group with them. Whenever we talk about this, we will laugh.

    What is your idea of an ideal first date?

    For me, my ideal first date would be a nice setup and design of a restaurant/cafe which has a live band. The best will be a jazz live band, with red wine and serving with delicious desserts. A cafe will be a cozy environment, with a hot cup of cappuccino and dessert. I believe if a man is interested in you, he would give efforts to plan and dress up himself. The first impression is always the most important part to lead to the next date and develop the relationship.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Jane. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    For me, “Sexy” means woman empowerment. A woman with self-confidence, and strong inside out. Always believe in herself, and eventually, her “sexiness” will show unconsciously and attractively.

  • Model & Certified Yoga Teacher, Mia Campbell

    Model & Certified Yoga Teacher, Mia Campbell

    Haaay! My name is Mia, I’m a mixture of English, Jamaican and Austrian. I grew half in London and half in Spain. I ended up moving to Barcelona when I was 18 as I was fully done with living the rest of my life in England.

    I’ve been very fortunate enough to have spent my time travelling quite a bit across the world and seen some remarkable places. At the beginning of year 2020, I was certified to teach Yoga as it was a really big passion of mine and it had changed my life so much that I wanted to share that experience with others.

    How long have you been modeling and what do you enjoy about being a model?

    I’ve been modeling only more seriously in the last 6 months. Over the years I dabble and dabble in it but when I came back from India, it was something I had grown more interested in. I love that modelling is like acting. You’re playing a role that gives you the ability to express yourself in different ways like different versions of yourself that you can play with.

    Do you have any favorite genres of modeling you prefer?

    Hmmm that’s hard. I don’t know what genres it comes under but I love the soft innocent raw look but also attitude fierce stylized looks.

    What is a memorable or unforgettable photoshoot you have had so far?

    Probably my first shoot I had done when I was living in Barcelona. I was walking outside my apartment at like 11pm to go to the shops to buy some chocolate and a guy crossing paths with me gave me his card and said I’d be great to shoot with. I really wanted to do a shoot but didn’t really know what I was doing or have the confidence in myself. He asked to do some movements that felt very awkward and I didn’t feel comfortable so I left. I think I didn’t do another shoot till like a year later ahah.

    If you could change one thing about the world, what will it be?

    You don’t know anyone’s story so stop trying to make assumptions about others. I would rewire our brains so that we grow up being mentored to supporting each other in whatever we like to do without judgement instead of tearing people down when all we are all trying to do is our best. So many people had their dreams taken away from them as they were told and they believed that it wasn’t possible.

    On a scale of 1-10, how much of an adventurer are you?

    Definitely 100000x I lovvvvvve adventures, I lovvvve getting lost, I love getting a little scared, sounds weird but it brings you fully present in that moment. You’re fully immersed.

    Would you rather be a vampire or werewolf?

    Vampires were always my fantasy growing up and I’ve always wanted someone to bite me and turn me into one hahahah… I think I was obsessed.

    What is the funniest or lamest attempt a guy has tried to know you?

    Something’s wrong with my eyes, I can’t seem to take them of you” …. I awkwardly laugh but have nowhere else to go as I’m working behind the bar so I pretend to be doing something seriously important behind me.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Mia. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Sexy is being fully comfortable and confident in your skin.
