Miss Earth Bosnia & Herzegovina 2020 | Amina Hasanabegovic

 Miss Earth Bosnia & Herzegovina 2020 | Amina Hasanabegovic


BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA

AMINA HASANBEGOVIC


Age: 20

Height: 172 cm

Measurements: 33 in - 25 in - 35 in


"I speak 4 languages. I invest in education and that is my priority in life. I finished high school and am currently studying at the Faculty of Political Sciences. My wish is to work as a teacher in order to pass on my knowledge to other generations."

DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS

I had a very happy and exciting childhood. I was a very interesting and restless child. I made some new mischief every day. I have 2 older brothers and an older sister so I was always a little spoiled little girl. As far as I know for myself I have been singing so I have performed at various shows and competitions where I have won awards.


WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?

My memorable moment was when I came to school the first day and the school direcor asked me if I knew anything about education. I could neither read nor write nor draw I only knew how to sing. At the school I went to, my father works as a teacher. And then when I said I could only sing I was played on a loudspeaker throughout the school. My father ruined the country. it was a very fun moment in my childhood.


ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?

I come from a calm and educated family. My sister has a master’s degree in economics, both brothers have a master’s degree in electrical engineering. My father works as a professor and my mother has dedicated her whole life to our upbringing and care for us. I can freely say that I am grateful to my family for all the successes I have made.


WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?

By the way, I really like challenges and some extreme things. I love surprises and I really enjoy them. I love when someone prepares them for me and I for someone. There are a lot of things that I would put under the unusual and I did, but I will win that which I know. And as a child of 11 years I knew how to drive. I was driving over 100km and after 3 hours of driving I was stopped by the police. I made a terrible problem for myself and my family, but it's all part of growing up.


WHAT IS YOUR ADVOCACY?

I advocate for love. I love to love and I love being loved. I find that people who can’t find love and good qualities in themselves can’t look for them in anyone else either. We need to be the change we want to see in the world. If we start by cleansing ourselves and making ourselves a better person, then the world will be a better place to live.


WHAT TIPS CAN YOU SHARE TO PROMOTE ECOTOURISM & CLIMATE CHANGE?

I think we need to work primarily on raising our children. To appeal to parents to raise awareness of environmental protection for their children so that tomorrow they can do the same and apply it. Every tree planted is a new life. Why destroy them if we all benefit from them. By cleaning parks and public places, using filters in cars and factories, we will protect the environment. Let's make the planet a better place to live.


WHAT MAKES YOU PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY?

The 1984 Olympic Games were held in my hometown, the capital of BiH, Sarajevo. Last year, the Winter Olympic Games for young people were held. We never did anything wrong to anyone. Moreover, during the 1992-1995 war, genocide was committed in several BiH cities. We have always voted for a truce and fought for peace not only in our country but in the whole world.


WHAT CAN YOU PROMOTE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY?

What I have done so far and what I will continue to promote about my country are the natural beauties that my country has at its disposal. We have many natural lakes, rivers, mountains, forests, sea and many other beauties.


WHAT TRIVIA ABOUT YOURSELF WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHARE?

I am a very optimistic person. I find someone good in every evil and I am sure that everything that happens in life happens for a reason.

Age: 23

Height: 175 cm

Measurements: 34.6 in - 27 in - 35.5 in


"I want to share my charisma and my empathy. Because it is something that our world today has forgotten and put aside. A beauty queen must be an "influencer" of love and respect; we must motivate young people to get involved in social work."

DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS

My childhood was amazing. I was raised by my grandfathers and mother. They thought me to be a fighter and a brave person. All I am today is because of them; they gave me life lessons, moral knowledge, sense of justice and over all love.


WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?

I had many memorable moments, but the most important and the one I will always remember is the moment when I heard my name as the Miss Bolivia winner. It was one of my childhood dreams. After all my effort and hard work I made my dream become a reality. I cannot explain all the pride and happiness I felt in that moment.


ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?

My mother is a fighter. She was a victim of domestic violence, even when she was sad or beaten she never stop fighting and giving love to me and my family. At that moment I had two options: cry or support my mother and help her to confront the problem and the abuser. I chose the second option… After this incident I realized how strong my mother and my family is and we became more united than ever.


WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?

When I was at Miss International Contest I had the opportunity to try their gastronomy, they have strange dishes I made the most of my time there and I ate the strangest foods I saw. One I remember in Natto.


WHAT IS YOUR ADVOCACY?

My advocacy has always been helping other people and animals, since my teenage years I felt attracted to social work. I find joy in helping. There is nothing more gratifying than helping other people and animals.


WHAT TIPS CAN YOU SHARE TO PROMOTE ECOTOURISM & CLIMATE CHANGE?

Bolivia is one of the most bio diverse countries in the world. We have valleys, jungles, deserts, and the biggest salt flat in the world, the highest and deepest lake in the world providing incredible landscapes and diversity of flora and fauna. We should promote and show the world what Bolivia has. Also, we have to invest in highways and transport methods that don’t affect the vegetation, education and preservation of the earth to make a sustainable tourism chain.


WHAT MAKES YOU PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY?

I am proud to be Bolivian because my country is multi-ethnic and multicultural. We have on one side, the Amazon with jungles and tropical forests, and on the other, we have the Altiplano with lakes, deserts, mountains and our incredible Salar de Uyuni. We are hard-working people, fighters and of faith. We have demonstrated more than once our union as a country, that defines “unity and courage” for Bolivians.


WHAT CAN YOU PROMOTE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY?

My country has a lot of diversity of cultures and tourist places. We have the Bolivian Amazon with warm climate and tropical landscapes; we also have the plateau where we can find Lake Titicaca, huge hills such as Cerro Rico de Potosi, Illimani and our majestic Salar de Uyuni. The gastronomy of Bolivia is so diverse and delicious that all the people that tries them makes Bolivian food one of their top favorite foods. That is why I would like to promote our diversity and multiculturalism in my country.


WHAT TRIVIA ABOUT YOURSELF WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHARE?

I would like to show my passion for helping others, for creating and being part of campaigns that help others and our environment. It is something that is part of me, it would not be me without being part of a humanitarian and social aid, and I want to encourage more young people to be encouraged to contribute their grain of sand to the world through good actions.
