• Quotes from Ambre

  "I hardly ever slept, there was a lot of drama so when things would get crazy I would sit there and think 'what the hell am I doing?'"

  "I went into this with an open mind and an open heart. I didn't expect to get so much out of this experience. I was tested emotionally, physically and spiritually. Coming out of it, oddly enough, I found out who I really was."
