We, like you, are always in search of ways to get to know our beautiful members even more intimately. So, taking our queue from Marcel Proust (by way of Vanity Fair), we’ll be asking some of the most enigmatic independent escorts in London exactly what makes them tick. First up, the alliterative angel Famke Fonteyn, who may be the most glamorous nerd we’ve ever set eyes on.
What is your idea of perfect happiness? Moments of sheer connection, joy, pleasure and intimacy. That moment you are suspended in time.
What is your greatest fear? Of being beige (boring).
Which living person do you most admire? May-Britt Moser, a female scientist who won the Nobel prize Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2014. Yes, I am nerdy
What is your greatest extravagance? My horse, the most spoiled diva ever. My suitors send – her – gifts. A lover may have had to pluck a stray of hay out of my hair. Another extravagance is Frederic Malle perfume, so worth it though.
What is your current state of mind? Excited – as I am talking to the ever delightful Louisa Knight.
What do you consider the most overrated virtue? Modesty, I see it as a social construct that is forced upon people. Give me quiet confidence any day, much sexier.
What is the quality you most like in a lover? Generosity. Good lovers are generous in many ways. I adore good manners. Intelligence. And a hint of adventure.
Which words or phrases do you most overuse? Logical fallacy
When and where were you happiest? Some of my happiest moments are in the middle of nowhere doing NGO volunteering. It fills my heart and feeds my soul.
Which talent would you most like to have? I would love to be able to do fine arts. Unfortunately I am not blessed with that talent. I make up for it in other ways though…
If you were to die and come back as a person or a thing, what would it be? I would like to come back as me and have more fun.
Where would you most like to live? Bali
What is your most treasured possession? My horse, although I think I am owned by her.
What do you most value in your friends? Being a bit of a rebel, being unconventional.
Who are your favourite writers? Robert Sapolsky, Khaled Hosseini and Diana Gabaldon, although Diana drives me insane with her side projects – endless procrastination. It is maddening
What constitutes your perfect night out? Great food, expertly made cocktails and mentally stimulating conversation. A spark in the air. A look. A subtle touch. Let it build. I have been told on numerous occasions by admirers I am one of the most interesting people they have ever met.
