AAM: Hello, dear Alexa!!! Tell us..How and when did you started modeling ?
Alexa:It was in small town, the name of that town Murmansk (on the north Russia, close to Norway) 5 years ago:) I previously lived there. Once, on the street I was approached by a woman.  She was manager of a local agency.  She liked me and she offered to try me as a model:)  I thought a lot about it with my parents and eventually they agreed to try it:)

AAM: Do you remember your first casting? Tell me how it was.
Alexa:My first trip was to Milan, Italy.  My first casting also was in Milan for Prada (Fall/Winter 2008 Show). I was nervous, my walk wasn’t fine, and I spoke so badly in English:)  When the casting director asked me, “How tall are you?” I answered “15!”, because to me I had always heard “How old are you?”  At that time I had a lot of funny moments. I was so young:)  Of course they did not take me on the show, but it was a good experience for me:)

But I love my days off, too.  On those days we arrange picnics in nature with friends, playing volleyball, badminton, and laying in the sun and swimming ;)
