DESCRIBE YOUR CHILDHOOD/GROWING YEARS

I am lucky and happy to have a beautiful childhood. Every Sunday the whole family go to my grandparents’ home. We usually go in the afternoon. We played cards, dominos, sat in the garden and watched TV together. At the age of 12/13 I took music lessons in the music academy.

WHAT IS YOUR MEMORABLE MOMENT?

One of my most memorable moments was when I was crowned as Miss Earth Belgium 2020 on January 25.

ANY SPECIAL STORIES OR FACTS ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?

I have family from the Philippines living in Cebu and Davao.

WHAT IS THE MOST UNUSUAL THING YOU HAVE EVER DONE?

The most unusual thing that I have ever done is: indoor skydiving with the organization of Miss Exclusive. It was fun and scary but I’m glad I did it.

WHAT IS YOUR ADVOCACY?

My advocacy is to spread awareness to reduce plastics! Plastic is still a big issue. I believe that there are plenty alternatives for plastics but we don’t adapt them into our daily life. That’s why we should start using the alternatives now! Instead of using a plastic straw just use a bamboo straw. Or if you go to the grocery store bring your own eco bag! If we make this the new normal it will have an big difference for our environment. Our Earth will become more greener and plastic free.

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

Go on vacation in your own country and discover new places by taking the train or share a ride with your friends and family. This will reduce your carbon footprint because you don’t have to travel by plane.

WHAT MAKES YOU PROUD OF YOUR COUNTRY?

I’m proud of my country Belgium because the European Union and the Navo is located here in Brussels. And also, we are known for our delicious chocolate.

WHAT CAN YOU PROMOTE ABOUT YOUR COUNTRY?

I like to promote the eco-tourism of my country. Here in Belgium we have beautiful places that you must visit. One of the most beautiful spots in Belgium is Dinant it is located in the southeast of the country. When you visit Dinant you must go see the Grotte La Merveilleusie, it’s a cave with a lot of halls. Inside the cave you will find a waterfall surrounded by colorful rock curtains.

WHAT TRIVIA ABOUT YOURSELF WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHARE?

I am proud to be half Belgian and half Filipina.
