Alexa Alfia from "Love Is Blind" dishes on her perfect Dallas day

• "I've grown so much from it," she tells Axios. "When I came back, my sister was the first one to point it out. She was like, 'What did they do to you there? You're so nice now.'"

Catch up fast: Alexa grew up in Plano and went to the University of Tel Aviv in Israel. She moved back to North Texas to be close to her family and runs an insurance agency with her stepmom's father.
