Explore the latest issue of Esquire #23, featuring the captivating duo Neli Atanasova and Alexander Sano. In this edition, enjoy a look at their photoshoot and delve into an engaging interview conducted by Hristo and Bilyana Zapryanov with the couple.
Interview Excerpt:
Hristo Zapryanov (HZ): So, we want to do something like a couples’ night out…
Bilyana Zapryanova (BZ): Stop speaking English!
Alexander Sano (AS): Well, I understood it.
HZ: Do you need subtitles?
Neli Sano (NS): And for me, please!
AS: Yes – she only speaks Serbian…
NS: My mother is Serbian.
HZ: Bravo! I manage with Croatian…
AS: In a movie I recently played in, there were a few Croats and a Serbian – they told me that in Yugoslavia, Serbs called the language Serbo-Croatian, and Croats called it Croatian-Serbian, but the differences are minimal. Everything is understandable.
BZ: I don’t understand anything. He calls me “Australopithecus.”
AS: And I call her Pocahontas because she’s a total wild child.
BZ: Well, it’s the same thing.
AS: Just be careful not to say anything Serbian to a Croat. Or vice versa.
HZ: Yeah, during the NATO bombings, they did a wild strip search on me at the border because I always threw in a strictly Croatian word.
AS: Speaking of “strip search,” isn’t that the cover of Faith No More? (Points to an old tattoo.)
HZ: Yes! Finally, someone gets it!
BZ: That’s his favorite band.
AS: For me, that’s not just a favorite band, it’s a religion! The greatest ever!
BZ: We got married to a song by Mike Patton!
HZ: That’s probably the only taste of mine I’ve imposed on her.
BZ: The other day we were talking about how our tastes don’t match at all…
NS: That’s exactly why you’re together!
BZ: Yes! Turns out the whole soulmate thing isn’t true at all.
NS: Exactly! Why would you need another one just like you?
