In this exclusive interview, supermodel Petra Nemcova gives a rare reflection on her personal experience of the tsunami. Undeniably, it was a horrific experience and, with over 300,000 people dead as a result, Nemcova was one of the lucky few to survive.
However, Nemcova points out that through this tragedy came solace in the fact that it brought family and nations together. ‘Every experience has pluses and minuses.’
Though Nemcova herself survived, her boyfriend whom she was holidaying with at the time sadly did not but his memory certainly lives on. ‘The saying, “A day without laughter, is a day wasted” is from him and now, because of him, myself and his family lead much fuller lives.’
