Today we celebrated International World Peace Day at the World Peace Gong in Bali, Indonesia. All Miss World contestants were dressed in white because the white color is a symbol of peace and freedom. It was so special andbeautiful when the white doves and balloons were released!
I made a video where I show you "The World Peace Gong" and the statue of Nelson Mandela, a South African anti-apartheid revolutionary and politician who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999. I wrote a short message on my balloon before releasing it: "Malene Riis Sørensen - Miss World Denmark. Love and peace. Bring the worlds to love each other." ♥

I am so happy right now! Tonight I finished my final interview with the judges and I think it went well. And finally I got to meet my family! Yaaaay! It was so great to hug my mom, dad and sister again! Even though I love to be here at Miss World in Bali, Indonesia, I have missed my family.
I look forward to tomorrow where we have a charity brunch plus an auction and in the evening we have the Topmodel fasttrack. It is going to be so exciting - I can't wait. Goodnight everyone!

Today has been great! We went to the charity brunch where some of our charity gifts were sold in an auction. A blind girl was performing, she sang very beautifully, it was amazing! Tonight we had the Miss World 2013 Topmodel event where all contestants wore gorgeous dresses made by Indonesian designers - I absolutely love my dress! It was my first fashion show, I did my best and I really enjoyed every second! Congratulations to the top 10 finalists! Especially Megan from the Philippines and Valerie from Cameroon - they are my really good friends and I am so happy for them! Goodnight everyone!

Today we had rehearsals all day - I am sure the Miss World final will be fantastic. Now there is only two days left, it is a little bit sad because I really enjoy being here and I am going to miss all the girls - they are amazing!
Love
