Bb. Pilipinas International Patch Magtanong is now in Japan!
Lawyer, model and beauty queen Patch Magtanong is now in Tokyo, Japan to vie for the Miss International crown.
She will compete against 83 candidates from different countries.
Posting on Instagram Saturday, Patch said she turned emotional when, for the very first time, the Philippine sash was put on her.
"Teared up when Sir Gines of @bbpilipinasofficial pit the Philippine sash on me for the first time," she wrote in the caption. "Sobrang bigat ah!!!!!" she added.
The lawyer kept her followers in-the-know of her whereabouts, posting photos with Mt. Fuji in the background, her meeting with other candidates, and so it goes.
On the Miss International Instagram account meanwhile, we learned the candidates have all learned how to make soap, how to make sushi, participated in a tea ceremony, too, and learned about bonsai.
