Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m a start-up entrepreneur, model, pizza connoisseur and private pilot based in New York City. My passion is advocacy for invisible illnesses and disabilities.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
That I have a top-secret pizza list and eaten pizza in 15 different countries… and counting!

What is your best asset?
My sense of humour – my grandma has confirmed I am the funniest grandchild. However, I’m also the only grandchild.

When do you feel sexy?
When I’m driving a car off the Almafi coast in Italy with the windows down.

What do you look for in a man?
Sense of humour, quick wit, and the ability to open tightly sealed jars.

What have you learned about men over the years?
Sometimes they just need a hug, some bad puns and a consensual butt pinch.

Describe your ideal date.
Salsa dancing in Havana. Or playing video games next to each other dressed as exotic animals. Don’t ask, it’s a vibe.

What is your motto in life?
That no matter what, it’s important to maintain your childlike wonder. And to always have a “joie de vivre”, or a joy of life.

What’s next for you?
Lots of upcoming modelling projects and I’m currently working on adding hours to my private pilot’s license. Follow me on Instagram to follow my journey!

Hey Liv, welcome back! Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m a small town valley girl who worked out of a metal fabrication factory, dreaming of travelling, until I became a FHM cover girl a few years ago and commenced travelling with FHM around the world to various exotic locations. I’ve expanded my education in health, science and fitness and gained a diverse model portfolio along the way. There is so much more to come!

What is your best asset?
I think my best asset is my capacity to show humanity and empathy for others – beauty starts from within! I literally feel everything, although my composure may not show it, I’m deeply moved by the energy of others and I utilise this blessing to help those dearest to me get through anything.

Describe your ideal date.
Something light hearted, active and fun outdoors – nothing forced and unnatural.

What do you look for in a man?
I don’t look for anything but I take note of the ones I share a genuine connection with and the way in which a man will go out of his way to help me with something.

What’s next for you?
I will be travelling with FHM Escapes Bali at the end of the year, which will be amazing! Coming into 2023, it is already filled with many incredible plans in my career tailored towards health and fitness and I can’t wait to get a solid entry into the industry that I respect so much.

Hi Stephanie, tell us a bit about yourself.
I currently reside in Las Vegas but I was originally born in Boston. I’m a full-time pharmacist and part-time model, a lover of fitness and proud owner of an adopted dog named Chance.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I’m actually quiet and an introvert. I love a good night in with wine listening to an audio book.

Describe your FHM Escapes Greece experience…
Destination Maxim was such an unreal, once in a lifetime trip. It was my first time in Greece and everyone on the tour was so welcoming. We stayed in a beyond beautiful villa overlooking the ocean, not to mention the food was incredible!

What was your highlight?
The highlight was definitely taking a boat out into the Mediterranean for a photo shoot with all of the girls on the tour. I couldn’t have asked
for anything better.

What would you tell someone who wants to come on a FHM Escapes tour?
That you are going to be amazed at the beautiful places you are going to go and the activities they have planned for you.

What is your motto in life?
To always be authentically yourself. How you make others feel about themselves says a lot about you.

What’s next for you?
I’m very excited to say I will be joining Destination MAXM in Bali in December! I can’t wait for this new adventure with the amazing team and the memories it will create.

Hi Alex, tell us a bit about yourself and life story so far.
I grew up in Southern California U.S.A., so my childhood consisted of tons of time at the beach – surfing with family and hanging with friends. I was a competitive swimmer and runner, have my undergrad degree in kinesiology and a master’s degree in sports management. I worked in the sports industry for a few years before committing to a career in fitness as a personal trainer. Recently I started a swimwear line with my mum and I’m super excited for it to launch.

Describe your FHM Escapes Greece experience.
Absolutely incredible! This was my second FHM Escapes experience and it never disappoints. You meet like-minded women from around the world and get to experience the culture and beauty of a new country every time.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I can be shy but once you get to know me I think I can be quite funny.

How would you describe yourself in five words?
Determined, loyal, genuine, caring, funny.

What do you look for in a man?
A take-charge kind of guy, athletic, confident, down to earth, funny, driven and most importantly kind.

What’s next for you?
My swimwear @gldnswimwear launches this month and can also be seen in FHM. This is truly a dream come true and to wear it while shooting in Greece was an amazing opportunity of a lifetime.

Hi Sophie, tell us a bit about yourself.
I grew up in outback Australia with a hunger for more opportunities which led me to move to Sydney, which is where I established my successful business in floral design as well as modelling. I look after myself, eat healthily, meditate daily and exercise regularly to maintain my overall health and well-being. I’m a big advocate for mental health.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I’m shy and introverted. I’m naturally quiet and that seems to surprise some people. As much as I love spending time with those close to me I love my alone time just as much.

What is your best asset?
Being feminine is my most powerful asset. I’m embodied in my feminine energy and that’s one of the things I love most about FHM – you embrace this.

Describe your FHM Escapes Greece experience.
It was unforgettable, empowering and so much fun! This is my second FHM trip I’ve done, after Samoa, and I’ve connected with amazing, like-minded women.

What would you tell someone who wants to come on a FHM Escapes tour?
Do it! If you want to expand your career, make wonderful memories and friends it really is worth it. Don’t let anything hold you back, always follow your intuition and if you have an inner calling for FHM, don’t let anything stop you!

What is your motto in life?
We aren’t here forever. I live my life to its full potential by travelling, embracing new opportunities and I’m a forever a student of this earth – forever practising living in the present moment and making the most of it.

Hi Cece, describe your FHM Escapes Greece experience.
Amazing! Not only such a beautiful destination in Crete, but working alongside a very talented group of people. Meeting the other girls and being able to discover the island with them was such a fun time.

What’s one thing men should always know about women?
That small details matter and that communication is key. I’d just say that it is good to remember we can have different perspectives on things and they should be open to understanding this.

What do you look for in a man?
I look for someone who knows what they want and has the ambition to pursue it.

What have you learned about men over the years?
That they tend to make more logical decisions but whenever they really want something, or someone, they will take every step to get there.

Who is your girl crush?
Jessica Alba is the first one that comes to mind – she’s not only beautiful but always had a very fearless and confident aura. Also, Gal Gadot.

What is your motto in life?
Everything is ever changing – accepting impermanence and seeing the beauty in it. So, we must do our best to be present in the moment – it all goes quicker than we think.

This is your first FHM Escapes trip – how would you describe your Greece tour?

I’m from Dallas, Texas and grew up dancing my entire life. Now I’m a yoga, fitness and meditation instructor. I’m passionate about all things movement related.

What do you love about a man?
I notice confidence at first – I’m immediately drawn to someone who is confident and holds themselves well.

Describe your ideal man.
Someone who has a clear why in life and knows what it is that they want. Someone who is spiritual and passionate about health, fitness and wellness is also very important to me.

What impresses you on a first date?
Someone who has goals and knows what it is that they are most passionate about in life. I love someone who is successful and is able to share their successes with others.

Describe your FHM Escapes Greece experience.
So amazing! I couldn’t imagine a more amazing location than the Acro Suites in Crete – so beautiful, talented staff, gorgeous models, perfect weather… Truly such an incredible and memorable experience overall.

Any funny anecdotes you can share about this trip?
There were too many beautiful models in the group for the other resort guests to handle! One of the girls overheard a woman say, “They’re everywhere!” irritably referring to us. Oops!

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I grew up in Chicago, where I graduated from college with my degree in psychology, but I have a super entrepreneurial spirit. I’ve been extremely driven my entire life and because of this I have had my own businesses for as long as I can remember. I love working hard, making things happen and stepping outside of my comfort zone.

What is your best asset?
I’d have to go with my personality trait of being very humble, down to earth and go with the flow kinda girl.

When do you feel sexy?
Definitely in front of the camera! I’ve looked into the lens of a camera in ways I’ve never even looked at some of my ex-boyfriends. It just puts me in a mood!

What’s next for you?
I made a huge decision this year to really zero in and simplify my company, niKETO. Formerly an all-low carb, keto friendly restaurant based in L.A., we have decided to expand all across the U.S.A. by transitioning to a monthly subscription service! Each month we curate an assortment of new and different sweets to be delivered to your doorstep.

Join us on our FHM Escapes tour to Acro Suites in Crete, Greece, with Aussie model Bree Connor along to join the experience…

Hey Bree, tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m Australian born but everyone thinks I’m European. I’m hardworking, ambitious, creative and extremely resilient. I love doing anything that allows to me express my creativity – whether it’s music, designing, social media, creative directing or modelling, being creative is when I’m the happiest.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I did dancing my whole childhood and competed religiously – you wouldn’t be able to tell with how I dance now, though.

What is your best asset?
Probably my determination – if I want something I will become extremely determined and resourceful to make it happen – nothing is impossible to me.

When do you feel sexy?
I believe sexiness comes from within – if you feel good you look good, right? I feel the sexiest when I’m happy.

What have you learned about men over the years?
That if you focus on yourself, the right one will come along.

What’s one thing men should always know about women?
We are a very complex gender and we have many layers, like an onion.

What’s next for you?
I’ve got a couple of big projects that I’m working on at the moment. One being a social media agency, called NOWSOCIALS, and the other DUENDE THE LABEL, which you will see on some of the models in FHM.
