My name is Rakel Halldórsdóttir, born and raised in Iceland. I am 25 years old and have always loved music and acting. I have always wanted to act, sing and model but stopped myself by saying I don't need to do anything like that and I thought that made me strong but in the end I realized that it was only an excuse, and that I was afraid to go abroad by myself and follow my dreams. This will be a very big opportunity for anyone who gets to partake in season 3 and I am hoping that I can be one of those people.
The Fashion Hero Series is a very good way to open doors for everyone who don't have the typical model body nor the money and means to travel.
I live by quotes that I try to share to others who need to hear it and want to share it with everyone who would like to listen. Be yourself no matter who's beside you. Don't compare yourself to others because no one is the same. Surround yourself by the people you love and who love you back. Treat others like you'd like to be treated if you were in their shoes.
