Introducing...Tervo Elina

She is wild and free. She was born to travel. She is a model, influencer, media assistant, yoga teacher and personal trainer, but her goal is to work less and live more. She is a nomad with a strong need to experience and understand the world around us. And she prefers to do it all while wearing only her bikinis…

Hello, Elina, cool MAXIM photo shoot. Tell us a bit about it.

Thank you. I travelled to Los Angeles from Mexico and we shot on the stunning Huntington Beach. I love the sea and swimsuits – I’m almost always wearing bikinis or other warm weather gear.

Well you look fire! When do you feel you are at your sexiest?

Thank you! I’m definitely a free soul and a child of nature. So, I feel sexiest close to nature – I am wild and playful and the freer I get to be, the sexier I feel.

What is your best asset?

My best asset is definitely courage. People can already see it in my lifestyle, I am fearless. I’m also extremely fast mentally – I don’t waste time with making decisions. Fast movements are also one of my main characteristics.

You are originally from Finland – do you still live there or did you decide to live in a warmer climate so you can hang out in your swimwear?

Yes, I was born in Helsinki but most of my childhood I lived in Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland in Finland. After those years I just became a citizen of the world. I hate the cold and this is why I travel most of the time to places where all I need is a bikini.

For those who are not familiar with you, give us a little more background about yourself.
