"Waris was born in Somalia. At the age of 5, she underwent female genital mutilation. At 13, she ran away from home to avoid marrying an old man.
Fleeing to London, she did not know the language or local culture, lived without documents, and worked as a cleaner in a restaurant until a fateful encounter with a renowned photographer changed her life.
Today, Waris Dirie is a well-known top model, writer, and UN Special Ambassador for Women's Rights. Her story is a beautiful inspiration for everyone!
From the Somali desert, she made her way to the world of high fashion. She fought against injustice and emerged victorious from this struggle." - Elton John
