Miss Poland says Vietnamese counterpart inspired visit

During her first visit to Vietnam, Klepaczka said she befriended Ngoc Chau when they represented their country at the Miss Universe and Miss Supranational pageants last year. She said they had many great experiences and created fond memories together. Chau often told Klepaczka about Vietnam and the culture here, which sparked her interest and inspired the Polish contest winner to visit the country.

When Klepaczka arrived in Vietnam, she felt comfortable because of everyone's sincere and hospitable welcome. Street food is also something that fascinates her. The only unfortunate thing is that due to a busy schedule, Klepaczka didn’t have time to meet Chau.

Klepaczka accompanied a local noodle brand as a brand ambassador at the People's Committee of Hoa Thanh Ward, Tan Phu District, HCMC to present 175 gifts to disadvantaged teachers and workers. Klepaczka said that her two-week trip in In Vietnam will include many more charity activities in many localities.

"I believe that a beauty queen must also be a contributor to the community. I’m very honored to be able to give these small but meaningful gifts to people with difficult circumstances," she said.
