MARIA RYABUSHKINA: Citizen of the world
Our recent discovery Maxim takes us to the beaches of Tulum to chat with the Russian model who also dabbles in fashion and entrepreneurship.

Maria Ryabushkina grew up in Saint Petersburg, Russia, in the midst of a happy family. She was a diligent girl who always had good grades, and her behavior and dedication led her to take extra piano and dance classes.
She also let her imagination fly, even, "I still believe in fairies, magic dust, and I have many talismans, pets that will bring me luck". Being honest with us, she confesses that being a model was her dream since those years, which later would give her the opportunity to travel the world and experience the freedom to live her life the way she always wanted.
It was at an early age when she decided to give vent to that passion, she tells us: “I started at 18 and it was quite good for me in Russia. But it was not enough for me, I wanted to achieve more and decided to travel. My first destination was the Czech Republic. Since then my career took off ”.
OPEN WINGS AND FLY
Very soon, Maria realized that her destiny and the way she wanted to live depended on her. That was the biggest discovery and change in her life that led her to explore other countries. "Open my wings and fly, travel the world, meet interesting people and live in incredible places like Mexico, Italy and Spain."
WILD AND ADVENTURE
Maria Ryabushkina is a brave woman who is not afraid to venture into new projects, she recognizes herself without prejudice or fear of trying new experiences, to “be wild and adventurous”, as she defines it.
She has even experimented in nude photographs and videos, with the intrinsic thought of considering that “the woman's body is a work of art. I love posing and enjoying seeing the final result ”.
STRENGTH AND BEAUTY: THE IDEAL MIXTURE
Not for less is her freedom of thought, “I was educated to become a strong woman, to know what I want, to defend myself, I would never do something with which I do not agree or to be pushed into something that I regret later. I know when to say no. And now it's easier, as in recent years she has achieved fame and recognition, which, as she explains, helps her "better control my career and my path."
ENTREPRENEUR
In parallel, she has also been fascinated by the world of fashion, "I have always liked clothes, I think I have very good taste in fashion, and I have to admit that I am a shopaholic", she explains with a laugh. "From there, there was only one step to start my business", which focuses on an online store that includes lingerie, bikinis, footwear, among others.
LOVE FOR MEXICO
For her part, that passion to grow as a woman and a celebrity brought her to Mexico and she confesses to being in love with our country. "I love everything, the beautiful nature, the cities, the beach, the sea, the food, the people and especially the warm climate." At present, it is common to see her enjoying the beaches of Tulum, the place where we did this cover photo session. And of course, "like many other young girls, I like to spend time with my friends, go to parties, nightclubs, buy clothes, travel and generally have fun."
A PROMISING FUTURE
Although being present on a Maxim cover was one of his dreams that is now a reality, there are still some goals to fulfill, such as working for brands such as Victoria’s Secret, Armani, Calvin Klein, Inamorata, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, among others. And as those doors open for her, she is focused on her fashion project, "I am very focused on my business, but also on my modeling career, which gives me financial freedom."
THE POSITIVE SIDE OF LIFE
On a personal level, Maria describes herself as a very kind, loving person and also “I care about nature, animals, the environment and thinking about all the problems on our planet often saddens me. But I'm definitely trying to do my part. " At the end of the day, his best quality is that “I always see the positive side of life”, and that way everything is always easier.
