Miss Grand PH bet Nikki de Moura excites pageant fans upon arriving in Vietnam

Only three weeks to go until the coronation night for the Miss Grand International pageant in Vietnam and the country's representative, Miss Grand Philippines Nikki de Moura, is starting her journey to the crown with a warm welcome from the host country.

Nikki posted a number of photos of her being welcomed in Vietnam on her Instagram account, writing that she was “grateful and excited” to be in the country and that she is “ready for amazing adventures ahead!” She was also wearing an Ao Dai upon arrival. An Ao Dai is Vietnam's national dress.

The coronation night for the Miss Grand International 2023 pageant is set to happen on October 25, 2023 at the Phú Thọ Indoor Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Nikki is just one of the queens competing in international pageants in the coming weeks.

Binibining Pilipinas International Nicole Borromeo is competing in the Miss International 2023 pageant, which is holding its coronation night on October 26, 2023 in Tokyo, Japan. Just a day ago, the Binibining Pilipinas organization called on pageant fans to show their support for Nicole by downloading the Miss International app and voting for her there.

Aside from Miss International, the Kapuso Network's own Michelle Dee is competing for the Miss Universe crown in El Salvador on November 18. Just recently, Michelle shared that she is giving her “200 percent" when it comes to preparing for the pageant.

“I'm giving it everything that I have, 200 percent of myself I am dedicating to my crown. Nililigawan ko talaga 'yung pang-limang korona,” she shared during her contract signing with the Autism Society Philippines.

“I'm really training every day when my schedule permits. I've been working on different aspects of my campaign just to make sure that when I fly to El Salvador, 100 percent ready.”

In December, Miss World Philippines Gwendolyne Fourniol will be headed to India to compete for the Miss World crown.
