"I'm an outgoing introvert," Natalia revealed to Teen Vogue. "I love talking to people… but part of me is such a homebody." One of her favorite topics? "I love talking about my dad," she said. "It's bittersweet, but I enjoy talking about him more than it's sad for me."
Natalia fell in love with volleyball in 2012. "It was the London Olympics. "My mom took me to watch Misty May play beach volleyball," she told Teen Vogue. "I was watching and [my Mom] was like, 'Nani, you're going to love this sport. You're going to love volleyball. I'm calling it right now. I think [my mom] knew I wasn't confident in my height. She's like, 'You're going to play volleyball. You're going to get confident because of this. There are all these other tall girls too, so you're not the only one." She wanted to play in college, but her father and sister's tragic deaths derailed her plans. "I love the sport," she continued. "I quit volleyball after the accident because I was so … a lot was going on at that time. I knew I didn't … love volleyball as much as they love basketball. I'm okay with that."
Natalia also loves skiing. "It's so relaxing," she told Teen Vogue. "You go down the mountain, down different trails. I can't say that I haven't [crashed into trees]. I'd be lying if I said I didn't. But it's just so relaxing to me. You get space … you get to clear your mind, and you don't think about anything. You think about what you're doing in the moment. It's about being present. Which I love."
Natalia also likes to golf. One of her favorite golfing buddies? "Uncle Pau" Pau Gasol, her late father's former teammate from the Los Angeles Lakers. "Nani was incredibly today," the NBA star captioned this video clip of her sinking a hole.
While Natalia hasn't discussed her diet in interviews, she has revealed a few of her favorite things to eat. During an interview with IMG Models, she revealed that her favorite dish is pesto pasta, and one of her first memories of Paris is "eating crepes." You can also find photos of cake and lattes on her Instagram feed.
Natalia "stress organizes," she revealed to IMG. "I freak out if I get home and there is a mess," she said. "I stress organize. If I'm ever stressed, I organize my stuff really fast." "If the constant stream of things to pick up around your home leaves you feeling anxious, you're not alone. Objects have the power to do just that. In fact, when working couples gave tours of their homes, women who used more words describing clutter and disorganization also tended to show levels of the stress hormone cortisol, suggesting chronic stress. On the flip side, those who described their homes as being restful or talked about their beautiful outdoor spaces were less stressed and reported less sad feelings as the day went on," says the Mayo Clinic.
