''IT WAS THE BEST MOMENT OF MY SECOND LIFE''

 - Nany Jurado, LOOK of the YEAR 2018-2019

''Winning the LUXE Paris LOOK of the YEAR contest was the best moment of my Second Life'', confides Nany Jurado, a soccer mom from Medellin, Colombia, who has been in  Second Life for nine years.

''When I think about the moment they said my name, I get excited again! I have no words to describe the power of the joy which filled me suddenly. I was crying and laughing in the arms of my RL daughters as the IM were coming from everywhere!''

Nany was selected as the best ambassador for LUXE Paris among 123 candidates. Elegant, stylish, genuine and with a very generous personality, Nany represents the LUXE Paris spirit perfectly.  We were really please to have her as our brand ambassador throughout the year.

''All year, it was a magnificent experience and I encourage everybody to go for it'', continues Nany Jurado.

''The things you learn, the friendships you build, the staff who treats you with a huge love and respect... Really, I would do it again if I was allowed!''
