Trò chuyện cùng đại diện Aruba tại Miss World 2010

Aruba, located in
the Southern Caribbean, is one of the premier tourist destinations in
the area. Its pristine beaches and friendly people make the island an
idyllic place for the perfect vacations. The face of Aruba in the 60th
Miss World pageant is Kimberly Del Valle Kuiperi. She will have the honor of representing the one happy island
at the world's greatest beauty contest. Aruba produced the ever
sensational Zizi Lee in 2001 who finished as first runner-up, Aruba's
highest placement in the pageant since its debut in 1964.1. Give us an introduction of yourself.
My name is Kimberly Del Valle
Kuiperi. I am 21 years old. I was born in Margarita Island, Venezuela.
My father was Arubian and my mother is Venezuelan. At the age of 1 my
father got a fantastic offer as a hotel manager at one of the most
prestigious hotels on the island and from that time we made Aruba our
home. My direct family consists of my mother Marilina and my brother
Ralph since my father passed away in 1999. My nationality is Dutch. I
finished my bachelor’s degree in Marketing at the University of Aruba
last July. In my free time I do modeling, spend time with my loved ones
and enjoy the perfect beaches of Aruba. I am very family oriented, I am
very outgoing, compassionate and I am very determined in achieving my
goals.


2. Tell us a bit more about your country and hometown.
We
are known as the friendly island, where you will meet 90,000 friends
you “haven’t met yet.” My island Aruba is a multicultural island that
falls under the kingdom of the Netherlands. Aruba is surrounded by world
renowned beaches, hospitable people and perfect weather year round.
What is fascinating about my island is the safety and tranquility it has
to offer.


3. What does it mean to you to represent your country at Miss World?
First
of all it is an honor to represent my island and most of all I will
have the opportunity to introduce to the world my beautiful island with
its friendly and hospitable inhabitants.


4. What preparations have you done so far for the Miss World final?
I
have been preparing myself mentally for this tremendous challenge and
opportunity. Spiritually I have been visualizing my successful
representation on behalf of the people of Aruba and physically staying
in good condition through fitness and proper nutrition.


5. If you have to describe yourself in one word, what would it be and why?
“Biba
cu pashon” meaning living with passion, giving a 100% of yourself at
all times for something that is constructive and valuable.


6. Where do you see yourself 10 years from now?
I see myself as a happy and healthy person together with my family and as an owner of my own marketing company.


7. Would you prefer being beautiful and rich or poor and smart?
None
of the above options has what it takes to make a person happy. I prefer
to be happy, and this means being successful, having achieved all my
goals, being healthy, being a good person to others and being together
with my family.

8. Which well known person from your country you most admire and why?
My
grandfather, Don Tico Kuiperi who had the first TV show called “Show
time” which promoted local talent and encouraged individuals to pursue
their artistic dreams.


9. If you had to choose any other country to live in, which one would you choose and why?
Spain; because I have always been fascinated by its people, climate and culture.

10. What do you think is the biggest problem facing the world today and what should be done about it?
Poverty. Stop all wars and redirect the money to feed the hungry worldwide!


11. Do you believe a
beauty queen should be politically correct when answering a
controversial subject question or should she express her personal views
on the issue?
She should express her personal views on the issue in a tactful manner.


12. What do you most look forward to about the Miss World Festival?
I
am looking forward to experience the Miss World pageant, representing
my island and learn about other cultures. What I most look forward to is
to learn more about the charitable organizations that the Miss World
pageant promotes and helps.


13. The winner of Miss World will be the 60th Miss World. Which former winner do you most admire and why?
Being elected as Miss World is already something to admire. I admire former Miss World 1994, Aishwarya Rai.
She demonstrates that even after winning the title and becoming a
successful actress and a true role model in her country and the world,
she still is contributing to great causes and that for me is something
to admire.


14. The motto of Miss World is Beauty with a Purpose. What does Beauty with a Purpose mean to you?
It means the inner beauty of a person and inner beauty means helping the poor and the less fortunate in the world.
