A Day In The Life With Miss International: Travel Weekends

Being Miss International 2016 is a dream come true, blessing, and huge responsibility. When I competed for this title, I knew that numerous opportunities to serve would become available… but I never imagined it would be to this magnitude. Each day I am more and more humbled by the opportunities the Lord gives me! I’d like to invite you all to take a look at what travel weekends are like as Miss International. We’ll use my recent trip to Little Rock, AR as an example!

This year of service is phenomenal and remarkable… but it is a job that cannot be taken lightly. At appearances, it’s peoples’ first time meeting Miss International and being able to serve them is a huge responsibility. We stay very busy as International Representatives… but I love each and every moment of it.

If you’re planning on becoming the next Miss International, I would encourage you to focus on the job. Do what it takes to prepare yourself to not only compete for Miss International… but to BE Miss International. The competition and crowning moment is only the beginning. Develop your time management, communication, and social media skills so that you are prepared to step into the most wonderful job in the world from the moment you are crowned. This truly is life in the blessed lane!
