A nurse has been dubbed the ‘sexiest in the world’ after taking the internet by storm with her saucy selfies.

Carina Linn, 23, from Taiwan, has stacked up some 186,000 followers on Instagram after only 66 posts.

And Carina’s army of fans looks like it is only set to grow as she continues to tease them with the stunning snaps, The Sun.

By day, Carina is a dutiful and caring nurse bringing solace to her patients at the busy hospital in the Taiwanese capital Taipei where she works.

But in her free time, the young medic changes out of her uniform and poses for glamorous and revealing photos.

The internet has gone wild for the pics, but Carina isn’t letting her newfound fame go to her head.

She said: ‘I'm not sure what the fuss is about there's no rule that a nurse cannot become a model when not on duty.’

Some have criticised her for what they see as her provocative image – posting photos of herself in her nurse’s uniform next to others of herself in bikinis.

But Carina is having none of it.

According to Stomp, she told her critics: ‘I'm not taking pictures because I'm trying to be famous.

‘I am me, I do things that make me feel happy. I don't think that I am anything special or extraordinary, I am just someone leading an ordinary life.’

Carina is not the first ‘ordinary’ worker in Taiwan to shoot to internet fame because of their good looks.

The young mum, who wasn’t named, has reportedly gathered a cult following in the country after she was snapped serving up grilled meat in a series of sexy outfits.

And chiselled student Wang Xianghong was dubbed ‘the world’s hottest veg seller’ after pictures of him working topless on the family fruit and veg stall in Taiwan went viral in 2015.
