Adriana was originally studying medicine, but one day noticed she was extremely good looking and swiftly left Slovakia to become a world famous model. Good choice, she has made.

She and Christian didn’t meet in a glitzy continental nightclub, but rather among the flight socks, stale air and cheap headphones of an aeroplane cabin.
