Bucket Babe: Basia Tyrkalska

This weeks Bucket Babe is a special friend of mine, not sure how but she always seems to be flying below the radar of everyone and in such doesn't get the credit she deserve. Of recent though, she has been getting a few breaks, landing shoots in the USA and partying with Mr Playboy himself, Hugh Hefner! Not only is she stunningly beautiful but she's also quite the brain box as well and like me, a takes a keen interest in the property and construction world. Being of Polish decent, her surname is a mouthful but when you see her, your jaw should drop down so you can get it all in!

Basia Tyrkalska

Wity, fun, kind, animal lover those are few words that describe me.

Born and raised in Poland, schooled in Germany and later in South Africa. Completed my Bcom honors in Economics.

Photoshoots are one of my passions and my life. Charities especially animal charities are close to my heart. (remember to drop off blankets and food at SPCA or your local animal shelters to keep their hearts warm) 

Hobbies and interests: horse riding, movies and music

This year so far was an incredible year for me and it only will get better :-) I been blessed to have a small part in a movie. Been modeling in Los Angeles and will be returning there soon spending my time between Los Angeles, New York, Poland and South Africa.

Shooting with the most amazing photographers, meeting and surround myself with incredible people which I am proud to call them my friends now. All I can say is I am a blessed girl and I am busy achieving my dreams
