Gisele Bündchen’s recent trip to Kenya to explore energy poverty may have been short, but Talent Management can see she’s clearly used her time there well, having taken a lot from the experience.

During her visit, the humanitarian model, mother and United Nations goodwill ambassador rallied support for orphaned African elephants, learnt about empowering women with knowledge, and even met the endangered Rothschild Giraffes.

So just what have these great experiences taught the world’s highest paid model?

On her blog, the Brazilian beauty left a message outlining the three most important lessons she’s learnt from her time in Kenya, and being such great universal advice, we couldn’t resist sharing them with you.

At the top of her list, Gisele wrote that she’s learnt knowledge is empowering and how important it is to never stop seeking new experiences: “Before this trip I did not know about all the people in the world still dealing with energy poverty. I was shocked to learn how electricity plays a large role in helping get people out of poverty and on their way to a better life. If you want to help the world be a better place, you have to learn about what is happening in different countries. Let’s break out of our bubbles and see what we can do to make change.”

Secondly, the model outlined the importance of living every moment to the fullest: “All the beautiful Kenyans I met live every moment to the fullest. No matter the challenges of daily life, they still showed up every day with incredible energy and passion. Their sense of hope and strong spirits were contagious. If all of us could live our lives with such enthusiasm, the world would be a better place.”

And finally, she wrote of responsibility we all have to help protect our planet and its people: “Every day in Kenya, I saw how communities were pulling together, and everyone was doing their part to help the greater whole. If we want to overcome the problems in our world, we must work together.”
