GET TO KNOW TARA.

- WHAT IS YOUR GUILTY PLEASURE?

I AM AN AVID ADMIRER OF ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIOR DESIGN. I COULD LOOK AT DIFFERENT DESIGNS ALL DAY LONG!

- HOW MANY LANGUAGES DO YOU SPEAK?

I SPEAK ENGLISH, FARSI, DUTCH AND FRENCH. DUTCH IS MY FIRST LANGUAGE, AS I LIVED IN THE NETHERLANDS FOR MOST OF MY CHILDHOOD, BUT I SPEAK FARIS AT HOME  WITH MY FAMILY DUE TO IT BEING OUR NATIVE TONGUE. I WAS ABLE TO LEARN ENGLISH WHEN MY FAMILY AND I IMMIGRATED FROM THE NETHERLANDS TO CANADA AND I WAS ENROLLED IN FRENCH IMMERSION WHEN I STARTED THE 6TH GRADE. I WENT ON TO COMPLETING ALL MY STUDIES IN HIGH SCHOOL IN FRENCH.

- IF YOU'RE NOT MODELLING, WHAT ELSE DO YOU GET UP TO?

I'M CURRENTLY STUDYING CRIMINOLOGY AT UNIVERSITY, SO I DEDICATE MOST OF MY TIME TO MY STUDIES. I ENJOY ADVENTURING OUT IN NATURE, TAPPING INTO MY CREATIVE SIDE AND EXPRESSING MYSELF THROUGH ART. NOT TO MENTION QUALITY TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

- WHAT WAS YOUR ALL TIME FAVOURITE TRIP YOU'VE TAKEN?

MY FAVOURITE TRIP THUS FAR WAS MY TRIP TO IRAN BACK IN 2015. IT WAS TRULY AN EYE-OPENING EXPERIENCE THAT I AM INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL FOR. IRAN IS A LIVELY COUNTRY WHERE I WAS ABLE TO ADMIRE AND PARTAKE IN ITS BREAKTAKING CULTURE AND ARTISTIC BEAUTY.HOWEVER, I AM MOST THANKFUL FOR THE AWAKENING I ENDURED BY WAY OF WITNESSING FIRSTHAND THE HARSH REALITY OF A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY, AND ALL THE STRUGGLES IT ENTAILS.
