>> THE MODELIZER —A move to New York can make a model's career, but Lakshmi Menon won't have any of it — she finds it "impossible to live in cities.”  Instead, she resides with her long-term partner, photographer Prabuddha Dasgupta, in the beach town of Goa, India, which is at least two flights and sometimes two days away from New York, Milan, and Paris.  “Looking from outside India, most people have the impression of a Slumdog Millionaire situation or believe that the First World has a better life to offer,” says Menon. “But I have no desire to move to Europe. Coming home is like a holiday for me now." [Vogue Daily]
