Wonderhussy is awesome and hilarious and very easy to talk to! She started modeling around 2008 and quickly learned to love modeling nude in the desert the most- she loved it SO much that she promoted nude day shoots in the desert with her as a chauffeur for a $500 day rate! 

Any time she had a crazy or weird experience, she used that as fuel to blog about on her website. Her transition from nude modeling to youtubing full time is very fascinating and inspiring. I love Wonderhussy's vibe and I feel like everyone needs a little wonderhussy in their life :) 

She no longer models, but you can totally soak her up on youtube!! (dude just watch her intro video, like dude, just do it ok?)  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRkyWI1tbWchz0uHfCMXK0w
