1.- Stefania, tell me about the city where you were born and raised. ,What do you like about your hometown?
My hometown is Brașov, located in the heart of Romania. Brașov combines spectacular natural landscapes with rich architecture and history, offering an unforgettable cultural and tourist experience. Bran Castle is a world-renowned tourist attraction also known as «Dracula’s Castle.» “Strada Sforii”, known as one of the narrowest streets in Europe, provides a unique experience for visitors. Another beautiful location is Poiana Brașov, a popular mountain resort with winter sports, summer activities and much more.
2.- What are your hobbies? what makes you laugh a lot or gives you joy?
My hobbies are traveling, mountain trips, personal development, painting religious icons on glass (I won second place in my country at the Olympiad of Traditional Artistic Crafts), doing sports, and dancing. These activities fill my life with joy and good energy. Modeling is not just a passion; it is something that cannot be missing from my life. It’s my dream turned into reality through a lot of perseverance and dedication.
3.-International Model. When did you decide to take your first steps as a model and beauty pageants? What feeling do you have achieving your dreams, your passions and being a recognized influencer woman today?
I started my first steps in the world of modeling at the late age of 17, but I believe I am an example that it is possible at any time if you really believe in your dream. Not even a year after I started, I managed to become a brand ambassador for Paris Polo Club at a Miss contest and won the 3rd runner-up for swimwear out of over 40 countries in a contest held in Thailand. Then, I had the opportunity to participate in a fashion show in Dubai, followed by fashion shows in Italy and Malta. I have an indescribable feeling when I step on stage. I want to be an example for women, inspiring them to have confidence and feel good in their bodies, because uniqueness and originality are the most beautiful qualities a person can have.
4.- What do you think is the distinctive, unique stamp of Stefania in each activity carried out as a beauty queen and model?
My unique stamp is how I approach things with passion and love, along with the desire to change the world into a better place.
5.- Whats is the main virtue that any woman must have to be an internacional model?
The main virtue that any woman must possess to become an international model is consistency, not giving up after the first disappointment of an unsuccessful casting. I was rejected at over 20 castings until I was finally accepted at one, where I won my titles and met wonderful people whom I collaborated with.
6.- Are you aware of being an influential woman for thousands of girls who want to be models? How important is it to you to be an idol for many girls and teenagers?
It’s important for me to be followed by many teenagers and women because I want to inspire them that any dream can come true.
7.- What was your feeling the first time you modeled in front of a video camera? What did you feel the first time at a beauty pageant?
The first time I was in front of the cameras, I felt a lot of emotions, but something inside me told me that I am exactly where I supposed to be.
8.- What do you think about the power of social media today?
I personally believe that information spreads quickly, which isn’t always beneficial. Parents should have some kind of control over what their children watch, some type of content can have negative influences, until the children learn to distinguish between right and wrong.
9.- How do you like to interact with your followers on social media? Whats your favorite social media?
I love interacting with my followers through posts and direct messages because it allows me to create a personal connection with them. My favorite social network is Instagram because it offers a variety of features like Stories and Reels that allows me to express myself creatively and share different aspects of my life.
10.- What would you advise young people who have talent but do not dare to take the next step? What would you advise parents who do not support their children’s talents?
People who have talent but the lack courage to start, they should step out of their comfort zone gradually, day by day, until they gain the confidence to express themselves freely. Parents need to support their children because you never know what champion might be discovered.
11.- What important lessons have you learned from the world of fashion and beauty pageants?
I’ve learned that discipline is essential and that feeling good in your body is a crucial aspect that contributes to confidence.
12.- Stefania, being a model for you has been easy? Were there obstacles?How did you overcome obstacles?
I can’t say it was easy, I faced many disappointments at castings, but the most important thing is that I didn’t give up. I overcame obstacles because I always fight for my dreams. Having the right mindset is very important for a better life.
13.- Have you thought about being an actress? Do you like the entertainment industry?
I like the idea and I would like to consider it, but I haven’t had the opportunity to participate in such activities yet.
14.- Worldwide, women have acquired a greater role even though there are societies where they are still abused. What is your opinion of the role of women in the future in these societies?
I believe there should be an association dedicated to assist women in danger. In these days, there should be zero tolerance for abuse, considering that the world has evolved, we should take basic principles and good education more seriosly.
15.- Stefania, what is your motivation and what do you feel grateful for every day?
My motivation comes from my principles and believing that I can make a difference in the world. I am grateful every day for everything that God provides and I believe all people should cultivate this gratitude.
16.- Stefania, Do you like to travel? What countries do you know? What other countries would you like to know and which places do you recommend to visit from your country?
I love to travel. I’ve explored various destinations including the UAE (Abu Dhabi, Dubai), Thailand (Bangkok), Egypt, Italy (Sicily, Rome), Malta (Valletta), Bulgaria and many other countries. In the future , I would like to visit England and America. In my country, I highly recommend my city, Brașov, located in the heart of Romania.
