Her journey continues on today 15th of November where she left Tortola, BVI in route to St. Thomas, USVI then for Manila, Philippines. Upon arriving in the Philippines, Miss Herbert will participate in a number of preliminary competitions before the date of the actual pageant, which includes a swimsuit and a costume competition, in lieu of the actual Miss Earth International theme “International Year of Water Cooperation”. The Pageant will take place on 7th December, 2013.

In light of the recent devastation that occurred in the Philippines Miss Earth BVI and committee extend our deepest sympathy to all of those who were affected and hope that we would be able to help out were we can during our participation of this pageant.
