Effortlessness was real, the internet killed it, and now everyone, models included, are performing it.

A funny recap of shooting my first Korean editorial with Van Cleef & Arpels - only for the magazine cover to feature a twig instead of my face.

A week in the life of a model in Seoul and the emotional whiplash that comes with it. From zero work to no time to even shower. From unemployed to uber employed! Balanced with a wholesome weekend, I share everything from turning a childhood memory into a perfume using brainwaves (still not over it) to an unplanned temple visit that genuinely shifted my perspective. A mix of fashion and fatigue.

Somehow I'm already halfway through my placement in Seoul and I’m reflecting on model life, comparison, and what it’s really like living with the very people you’re technically competing with. Honest, slightly unfiltered, and somewhere between self-aware and overthinking.

Week 3 in Seoul is a whirlwind of unpredictable castings, industry highs and lows, and the long-awaited arrival of best friend Aoife. From surprise swimwear fittings and hair drama to peaceful Han River walks and a chaotic first night out in Itaewon, this diary reflects the emotional rollercoaster and uniquely intense bonding that comes with modelling placements abroad.

A hilarious behind-the-scenes diary of week two modelling full-time in Seoul - from chaotic castings and freezing springwear shoots to flea market culture shocks and feeling truly “booked and busy.” Discover what life is really like working as an international fashion model in South Korea, navigating agency life, e-commerce shoots, unexpected racism experiences, and finding joy in the madness of a new city.
