She loves to go on long drives, enjoying the scenic beauty of New Zealand but woe betides those who would even think of taking her for a ride!
She has warm relationship with people but Ramiza Sahib, our Model of the Fortnight, is a no-nonsense girl.
“I know that some people adore me, while a few hate everything I do,” she said and quipped, “Who cares? This is my life and I will make the most of it.”
Born in Fiji, which she described as ‘The soft Coral Capital of the World,’ Ramiza migrated to New Zealand when she was 11 years old and was instantly captivated by the pristine beauty and cool weather of Aotearoa.
A resident of Wellington, she is pursuing higher education to become a qualified psychologist.
“I am very ambitious and love to try out new things in life. I enjoy Bollywood dancing, swimming, mountain biking, rock climbing, horse riding, bowling and golf,” she said.
Ramiza’s passion for stage took to her to Miss Indianz Wellington 2011 pageant at which she won the ‘Miss Beautiful’ title (Indian Newslink, September 15, 2011).
“It was an amazing experience and none of us was aware of the weeks spent rehearsing and preparing for the event. The pageant was fascinating,” she said.
Beyond those spotlights and public attention, Ramiza is a private person, placing her family first.
“I know that they will always support me,” she said.
