According to the “MONEY” singer, it all started when she was a young 5-year-old child and she travelled to her dad’s hometown of Switzerland. She recalls climbing a mountain and seeing a “white and cute flower.” It was a poignant memory that she never forgot.

Maybe when I was five? When I was in Kindergarten, I traveled with my family to my father’s hometown in Switzerland. While going up the mountain, I remembered seeing a white and cute flower and that memory must have stayed with me.
