Annalise singing La Maison où j'ai grandi by Françoise Hardy 

Quand je me tourne vers mes souvenirs Je revois la maison où j'ai grandi Il me revient des tas de choses Je vois des roses dans un jardin Là où vivaient des arbres maintenant La ville est là Et la maison, les fleurs que j'aimais tant N'existent plus

Ils savaient rire, tous mes amis Ils savaient si bien partager mes jeux Mais tout doit finir pourtant dans la vie Et j'ai dû partir, les larmes aux yeux

Mes amis me demandaient "pourquoi pleurer?" Découvrir le monde vaut mieux que rester Tu trouveras toutes les choses qu'ici On ne voit pas Toute une ville qui s'endort la nuit Dans la lumière

Annalise singing La vie en rose

Il est entré dans mon cœur Une part de bonheur Dont je connais la cause

C'est lui pour moi, moi pour lui dans la vie Il me l'a dit, l'a juré pour la vie 

Et dès que je l'aperçois Alors je sens en moi Mon cœur qui bat

Annalise Basso - QUARANTINE DIARY

Annalise answers to Tina Turnbow from The Bare Magazine.

Annalisse Basso is a stunning actress, model and artist. She can be seen soon in Snowpiercer on TNT, premiering May 17th. We are thrilled with her amazing self portraits, as she is a gifted photographer. With her upcoming screen appearances, she proves creative spirits can express themselves in more that one way. Annalise fills us in on her quarantine activities from home with her family, with hopes everyone becomes master bakers so she can eat pastries forever, and more inspiring thoughts on this new normal time.

The Bare Magazine: What 3 or more things do you miss the most?

Annalise Basso: Surfing in Malibu, eating truffle crepes in Aspen, and hugging people.

Bare: What have you discovered a new or new found appreciation for that's helping you cope?

AB: Now that I have time, I’ve rediscovered my passion for photography. Playing around with my Fuji xt3 and setting up shoots with my mom and my sister has been a great distraction, as well as a fun, creative outlet. Some of my favorite photographers like Elizaveta Porodina, Sasha Frolova, and Bianca Poletti have been posting on Instagram so it’s easy to find inspiration. Having zero distractions has forced me to focus on writing and reading, painting, and binging "Naked and Afraid."

Bare: Have you been listening, reading, or watching anything regularly? Any self-care rituals, or go-to feel good products?

AB: Whenever I’m down I usually read "The Chronicles of Narnia," but this time I picked up "Anne of Green Gables" and it was exactly what I needed: warm, magical, and hopeful. Now I’m reading "The Fountainhead" by Ayn Rand.

Listening to classical music has helped quiet my mind and re-watching "Pride and Prejudice" (2005) for the 300th time doesn’t hurt either, but what’s really helping is getting myself moving every day. Whether it’s having a dance party or a social distancing training session with Jonelle Luther. As far as self-care rituals, I’m trying out MV Organic Skincare for the first time and my everyday routine has become so much more luxurious. I’m loving it!

Bare: Are there any new hobbies or projects you've been getting into? New discoveries or adventures?

AB: Watching "The Great British Bake Off" has inspired me to take matters into my own hands and start baking everything from scratch; bread, pie, and more bread.

I’ve been hiding away in the mountains and exploring some great hiking trails- seeing a lot of wildlife along the way like elk, deer, and bighorn sheep. Luckily, I haven’t run into a bear!

Bare: In what way are you being proactive and creative with your work/financial state?

AB: I’m living at home with my family which relieves some pressure now that I don’t have to worry about LA rent. I’m taking all of my meetings over FaceTime and Zoom, so being able to collaborate helps make my life feel a little bit more normal.

Bare: What top 4 things do you hope we can learn from this challenging time?

AB:

I hope people (including myself) come out of this more appreciative of each other, and much more aware of how truly special and comforting the ordinary things can be.

I think one positive thing is that families are getting to spend more time together and reconnect. I hope we all maintain that level of closeness.

I think people are learning that taking time for yourself is healthy and rewarding. Some of my friends are gardening, painting for the first time, exercising, reading, and just being more creative. I hope people hold on to that courage and keep pushing themselves to try new things.

Finally I hope that everyone has learned to be master bakers so that a bunch of new bakeries pop up and I can eat all the pastries. Forever.
