Since a month ago, Jimena Cyrulnik is traveling to South East Asia great touring Buddhist temples, heavenly beaches and overcrowded cities with her boyfriend, who surprised her on her last birthday with the news of these dream holidays in which they mixed pleasure and work.
Is that, in dialogue with clarionthe anchor, who has been away from the media since last year, when she was a panelist us in the morning (El Trece, at 9), recounted details of his days in Thailandwhere she’s also taking the opportunity to source exclusive fabrics and patterns for her own swimwear brand.
In telephone communication from ko taoisland considered one of the best diving spots in the aforementioned country, Jimena recalled the proposal with which her partner surprised her at the end of last year.
“In Novemberthat was mine birthday, my boyfriend came with the surprise of giving me this trip. He told me ‘well, he organizes the house, the children and the work that we will visit in April for a month Thailand‘” He explained.
And he continued: “The journey began a month ago in Bangkokwhere I also wanted to see some fabric factories for the new collection of my bikini and lingerie brand (Xyrus), and then we did all north of thailand, all that is the city of temples Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, where there are elephants and everything is divine, and then we have come south and are visiting the beaches. It’s over next week.”
“I knew it, I’ve never gotten this far and the truth is, it’s amazing. The spirituality that Thais have is felt everywhere. They are very calm, very confident. We get around a lot on motorcycles and everyone leaves their motorcycles with their helmets on and nobody touches anything,” she said in amazement.
By way of example, the driver recalled an anecdote he lived a few days ago: “I left my cell phone on the motorbike we were traveling on, I went to the beach, I came back two hours later and nobody touched it. And it’s not that the people here have a lot of money. They live on the bare minimum, but they are very polite, kind and that really caught my attention. The spirituality they have is beautiful. From the very beginning they greet you with their little hands, bowing down».
-Do these situations make you think about the possibility of going to live in a place like this with your children?
-No, when I retired at the age of sixty, my partner and I used to say that this is a beautiful place because there are wonderful beaches, the weather is spectacular, it’s a paradise. But I have small children, school children, family, friends, my life today is in Argentina, I would not hang everything up or come here.
-How did you organize yourself with your children?
-The children are now left with their father and mother, who have put up with me completely, taking care of the house and the children when they have to be with me. They are 13 and 9, so we talk every day before they go to bed and when they get up for school, since we are right back in time.
-When are you coming back?
-Next week. Now I’m in Ko Tao, which is our last resort and then we go back to Bangkok and from there to Argentina.
How his 2023 will continue and why he has stepped away from the media
-What plans do you have for the rest of the year?
-Keep growing with my brand, which is already seven years old and installed. We have very loyal customers, a community of women with spectacular back and forth who write to me, ask me for products. Luckily we know each other a lot and we are very close.
-What do you like most about this new business and planning profession?
-Design work allows me to spend more time with my kids than when you’re on TV all day and I can make these getaways. The truth is, it’s easier that way than if you had a day job in TV, like it did back then.
Was it something you were looking for?
-No, it happened a bit. I love television but it was beginning to happen that my work as a designer and the brand itself began to capture more time, giving me a lot of satisfaction and many benefits of all kinds. I have more room to stay at home with my kids and a great round trip. It’s gone away and I’ve dedicated myself more to it and I love it. Of course I also like TV, but today I focus more on this because it closes me in everywhere.
-Despite everything, would you like to return to TV?
I always get offers. But hey, now this thing keeps happening to me that I’m still waiting for the ideal gap to be able to be on TV at the right time, to be able to combine work and lots of time with my kids.
