“I have a lot of time at the airport of Zaventem worked as ongoing information booth for travelers. On march 22, 2016, I was at work. I was on the same floor where the bombs have exploded, but fortunately not very close. I saw that a lot of people in panic were injured on the ground. One woman wanted her baby to safety, and threw it into a panic about the veiligheidspoortjes. That are images that you never forget.’
They know what it is to struggle. And with the same eagerness she collapsed on the Miss Belgium-election. “My title will now take priority over my other projects.
