After being postponed for a year, Miss Tourism Queen International 2011- finally took place in Xi’an, China. It commenced on December 13 and its finale was held on December 27. Among a total of 92 contestants, there was also our country representative Samriddhi Rai who returned home with the title of Miss Personality!

The beauty pageant had online voting from which contestants with the highest number of votes would directly enter Top 20. Although Rai couldn’t make it to that, Nepal once ranked on the top spot during the contest.

Rai, who is a media personality (former sub-editor of Teenz Magazine and columnist), is very happy to have brought a crown home and make Nepal proud. She is also very grateful for all the support she’s received thus far. She wants to thank especially Oodni Boutique and House of Alternative Apparel (HAA) for providing her with the costumes.
