Motivational Quote

Kentucky Derby

I just came back after an amazing weekend at The Kentucky Derby in Louisville where we went to watch the horse racing event. It was really intriguing to see how everybody got dressed up with their hats and outfits most of them very colourful and with all details carefully though of. The horses were so beautiful we got to go down and see them as well but unfortunately none of our horsing bets paid off. I have only been to the Royal Ascot in London before and this is  a similar event but maybe even bigger.

The Oscars, LA

Last Sunday I had the opportunity to go to the Oscars, but I was only asked to go a few days before so it was very rushed to find a dress and do the preparations. There was so much that I liked about the Oscars this year like the opening number when Charlize Theron was dancing with Channing Tatum, this girl has so many talents and she is very beautiful in real life as well. Also I’m glad Anne Hathaway won best supporting actress in the movie Les Miserable as I really love this movie and I think her acting was very good. The atmosphere was really amazing in La during the Oscar weekend lots of cool people everywhere. And the sunny weather put me in a very happy mood. Hope everyone is well. Xxx

OHMYGOSSIP — Miss Earth Sweden 2012 Camilla Hansson is a very a beautiful and enterprising young woman. A person who highly values ​​health and family. A model who never remains unnoticed by anyone. “The most important thing is to feel passionate about your work and really truly enjoy what you do,” tells Camilla to Ohmygossip.com.

Please, tell us about yourself?

I grew up in Stockholm, the beautiful capital city of Sweden but I have lived in various countries since I was 18. Currently I am in Manila, Philippines competing in the Miss Earth pageant! It’s the first time I’m in Asia so that’s really exciting; the people here are so incredibly friendly and welcoming. Ever since becoming Miss Earth Sweden 2012 I have been very busy preparing for the final and I also currently work for a real estate company.
What would you like to be doing five years from now?

I would like to have my own successful business and be happily married. 

What are your long-term goals?

I am very interested in food and nutrition and I really want to set up a healthy food restaurant one day which is what I have been working on for the past year. It’s been slightly delayed because of my duties as Miss Earth and also because it’s proving very difficult to secure a shop when you’re new in business but I will get there in the end! It’s also important for me to be a good role model for young women, and I would like to be more involved in charity work as I find it rewarding and I think it’s really important to give back.
How are you preparing yourself to achieve them?

I am trying to see the end goal very clearly in my mind and never lose sight of that no matter what happens. And take small daily steps to reach them, and try not to get too distracted by life in-between. I don’t even have a TV at home not to get distracted! One of my favorite expressions are “You can eat an elephant if you do it one bit at the time”.
What are the most important rewards you expect in your career?

The most important thing is to feel passionate about your work and really truly enjoy what you do. The worst thing for me would be to have a 9-6 job which I don’t enjoy and going to work having the same routine every day. I think work is where you need to grow and challenge yourself and also get your confidence. I like working hard but it’s important that I work hard for something meaningful.
What motivates you?

Well, you only live once and I don’t want to look back with any regrets. People will always judge you by your work and I want people to respect me.
Who is your role model and why?

I only have a few, but I like Jessica Alba because I think she seems to be a strong, smart businesswoman/actress and she is also incredibly beautiful. I also like Ivanka Trump´s style because she is a successful business woman but at the same time she is also very feminine.
What do you do in your spare time?

I usually go travelling, go to the gym; I spend time with my family and friends. When I can, I like being in nature and I also like to just relax and just stay at home.

 Let´s talk about fashion, too. Please describe your style? What do you wear most?

I’m definitely a very girlie girl and therefore like to wear clothes that are very feminine and I usually go for a quite classic style. 

Who/what inspires your fashion?

To be honest I’m not very good with following fashion trends I just buy what I like and think looks good.
How long do you spend on your outfit each day?

It depends on what I’m doing, if I’m going for work then maybe 5 minutes. But I like feeling good in my clothes and looking presentable. Clothes do a lot on a woman’s appearance and it gives me confidence if I feel I look nice. 

Is there one piece in particular that you would say is your signature piece?

I guess it would be my dresses. I love dressing up, and I always wear dresses if I go out in the evenings.
What is your favorite accessory?

I rarely leave my house without earrings of some type.
What do you always carry with you?

My perfume, I love the Escada summer perfume. I think I’ve had the same one since I was like 15, I never change. It has become my signature.
What is your favorite fashion store/shop?

I like Harrods department store in London. 

Who is your favorite designer?

Hard to say.. Depends for what? I usually spend more money on shoes like Christian Louboutin and bags from various brands as I think it’s important that they are of good quality and then I can always find cute dresses and casual everyday clothes a bit cheaper and it will still look good if you match them with a good quality shoes and handbag.

Exclusive Interview

Camilla Hansson – Miss Sweden Earth 2012

 

TIB – Who is Camilla Hansson? Tell us something that will make us remember you.
Camilla – I am an ambitious model and entrepreneur from Stockholm and the winner of Miss Sweden Earth 2012. Right now I’m working on setting up a healthy food restaurant and preparing for the big Miss Earth competition. I love taking on new challenges I think that’s what life is all about to keep growing as a person and to work hard at reaching your dreams.

TIB – Tell us something interesting about your country Sweden that people might not know.
Camilla – Sweden has one of the highest levels of gender equality in the world. Gender equality is one of the cornerstones of Swedish society. It means that women and men enjoy the same opportunities, rights and obligations in all areas of life. Almost half of all Swedish members of parliament and government ministers are women. We also have the highest percentage of working mothers in the developed world.

TIB – What made you want to get into pageants?
Camilla – I watched Miss Sweden as a child with my family and I inspired to be one of those girls. I love beauty in any form but I also think Miss Earth is so much more than just physical beauty. You have to stand for something and you have to be very smart and be able to communicate well. Also what differentiates Miss Earth from modeling is that you represent yourself and not a brand which is what I like. Being Miss Earth Sweden has given me a bigger voice to express myself and it has also given me more self-confidence.

TIB – Why do you want to become Miss Earth 2012?
Camilla – I think Miss Earth is a great organization it really stands for beauty with a purpose and they do great things for helping to save the environment and if I would win and be their representative for 2012 then that would be a great honor. I am passionate about preserving our beautiful planet and of course if I would become Miss Earth then that would give me a bigger impact and power to do so.

Camilla Hansson

TIB – If you had only one wish, what would it be and why?
Camilla – For the people I love to be happy and healthy for the rest of their lives

TIB – Have you, or would you, use an online dating service?
Camilla – No too risky! I’m not against it though I heard about people who find their true love trough a dating service but I always want to know a lot about somebody before I go on a date with them just to be sure who I am meeting so it’s not for me. I prefer meeting people through common friends or maybe work.

TIB – 5 Things You Think Make You Happy
Family & friends
Travelling and discovering new places
Work and achievements
Freedom and independence
Love

Miss Earth Sweden 2012 Camilla Hansson’s interview for MissEarth.tv

What environmental project will you create to promote the protection of Mother Earth and why?

My environmental project “Healthy You. Healthy Planet” is about encouraging people to think about what they eat and where the food has been sourced from. We should try to eat local and seasonal food wherever possible and increase our intake of fruit and vegetable, avoid processed food, eat sustainably sourced food and buy products with recyclable packing or as little packaging as possible to help the planet. The good news is that food that’s healthy for us is generally healthy for the planet to eat too. I am encouraging people to have a diet that’s good for health reasons as well as environmental reasons. The other big issue with our food consumption is food waste, which has a big negative impact on the environment because of the methane gas it releases when the food rots, so I’m raising awareness and educating people on how to waste less. This will benefit our planet as well as our own pockets if we can waste less food. By giving practical advice on how to reduce food waste and choose our food responsibly I am hoping to inspire other people to make a difference as well. I have volunteered for the Swedish church collecting leftover food from coffee shops in Stockholm which they haven’t been able to sell which we then give to homeless people. That’s one way we can reduce food waste by giving it away to the people that need it instead of wasting it.

 

What makes you proud of your country and what can you promote about it?

What makes me proud of Sweden is that there is a sense of equality among everyone whether you are a man or a woman and regardless of your class you are treated with the same respect and have the same opportunities in the society. We have one of the best welfare systems in the world with public healthcare and schools being free. We are also one of the healthiest countries in the world where eating healthy and exercising comes naturally to many people. We have vast recycling programs in place where we encourage people to recycle and reward them for doing so, which in turn makes recycling accessible and easy in Sweden. Conscious about protecting our environment almost half of the energy we are using in Sweden is renewable, and few other countries have as high goals in renewable energy consumption as Sweden.

 

Describe your childhood/growing years:

I grew up in Stockholm, Sweden’s capital city, a beautiful place with water all around it and astonishing architecture and nature. I felt very safe growing up there as a child and the quality of life we had there as a family was very good. I went to a private school and my parents were strict with teaching me good mannerism and how to behave with respect towards other people. Apart from getting a lot of love from my parents they also gave me a lot of freedom when I was growing up which made me very independent and I learned from an early age how to take care of myself without depending on anyone else. On weekends my father used to take me away from the city and we’d go to the countryside where we’d go fishing and long walks in the woods, spending most of our time outside which is where I grew to love and appreciate the beauty of our nature and the environment which we live in.

 

What lessons did you learn from your childhood/growing years?

I learned that family is the most important thing in life. That no matter what happens you always have your family to get love and strength from. Strong families encourage each other in life and support each other. Because we were a family of 5 I also learned that you have to share with other people and not be selfish and to look after one another. And even today in one’s hectic schedule I always prioritize my family first and take time off to spend quality time. I also saw that the mother is the one who keeps a family together; she is the heart of a family. And I learned that the best way to raise your children as a parent is by leading by example and to be a role model whom your children can look up to which is what I intend to be the day I have my own children. But the most important thing which I learned is how to practice the Christian faith which is where I get all my strength from.

 

What is your most memorable moment?

When I went to Senegal, Africa when I was 18, I remember I hadn’t seen such poverty before and it was really an eye opener to see how some people live in difficulties and struggle throughout their lives. It made the small problems that I had in my life feel insignificant. And also, I saw how some very poor families still looked happy even though they didn’t have much so I believe it’s all about how you feel inside that matters and creates your happiness, not the worldly things and possessions.

 

What is your environmental advocacy and why did you choose it?

I want to encourage people to start thinking and take responsibility for the food that we consume. The way we eat has a massive impact on the planet. One of the problems we face today is that we waste too much food in the western world and food waste has a serious negative impact on the environment. The other issue I want to raise awareness about is for people to think about where the food we consume comes from. The good thing is that generally what is healthy for us people to eat is also healthy for the planet. It helps the environment if we buy food that is both local and seasonal wherever possible, as well as thinking about cutting down on processed food, and buy certified and sustainable produce with recyclable packaging. By doing some easy practical things in our daily lives we can waste less and eat more healthily which will benefit the planet’s health as well as our own health.

 

What tip can you share to promote sustainable energy for all?

Our population is becoming bigger and bigger and we require more resources and more energy. But the way we are using our energy resources today is not sustainable for the planet. We need to find alternatives for cleaner energy. The first thing we should do is to stop wasting energy. When we start to use energy more wisely it will be easier to create a more renewable energy system. It is also a political issue to make sure we put up goals and take actions for our own country to make it cleaner and better for the planet. Renewable energy is our planet’s future.

 

Reduce Food waste

About 27 % of the food that is being bought in Sweden we throw away to waste. Food waste has a massive negative impact on the environment, when food rots it releases methane, a greenhouse gas emission which is very damaging for the planet. The best way to stop food waste is by planning ahead carefully with our shopping and our meals.

I’ve been volunteering for the Swedish Church picking up left over food from coffee shops and restaurants which they haven’t been able to sell and we gave it to the hungry homeless people. This is an excellent way to reduce food waste and giving it to the needy instead of throwing it away which is sad to do when there are so many people that doesn’t have food to eat.

Educating people about how to reduce food waste is one part of what I am doing for my Miss Earth project “Healthy You Healthy Planet”.

As you can see we did get quite a lot of food in our trolley that we collected and were able to give away.
