It’s hard to imagine Nina Agdal as anything else than one of the top models in the world.<br /><br />But it appears it wasn’t always so easy.<br /><br />While speaking to Maxim magazine, the blonde beauty detailed that at the age of 18 she flew to Miami to become a model… and she only had 40 dollars in her pocket and the address for the model apartments. <br /><br />She said she was crying when she landed at the airport and struggled to communicate with the taxi driver.<br /><br />But only two years later she sky rocketed to fame as the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit’s Rookie of the Year. And a few years after that, she became Leonardo DiCaprio’s main squeeze.<br /><br />So yeah, you could say she’s come a long way from crying in a Miami airport with only a few dollars to her name.<br />
