Gisele sings, plays guitar as the sun sets in Instagram post

The supermodel performed a little-known song from her home country.

Gisele Bundchen is starting 2017 off with the sun on her back and a song in her heart.

In a video she posted to Instagram Monday morning, the supermodel strums an acoustic guitar and sings a song in her native Portuguese for her almost 11 million followers.

The song Bundchen chose is called “Trem-Bala” (which translates to “Bullet Train”), and was written by Ana Vilela, an 18-year-old amateur Brazilian singer. The tune went viral on Whatsapp in Brazil in October 2016, according to Brazilian news site Administradores.

The former model also posted a photo on New Year’s Day of herself leaping along the beach as the sun sets, with the caption, “Let’s let go of what no longer serves us and embrace with an open heart all the experiences that life will bring us in this New Year, co-creating the beautiful world we wan to live in.”
