After her success at Miss Vietnam 2006 on Aug 26, the 18-year-old Hanoi beauty began her trip to Poland host city of Gdansk Monday evening.
Thuy has received a full scholarship from RMIT University, and wants to become a successful businesswoman.
She enjoys jogging, swimming, reading, listening to music, especially hip-hop and dance.
Her favorite foods, of course, are Vietnam’s traditional delicacies of ‘Pho’ (noodle soup) and spring rolls.
At 1.79m, Thuy is the tallest-ever Miss Vietnam to join in Miss World.
In the final contest on Sept 30, she will wear the traditional Vietnamese ao dai, a tunic-like dress made famous in Vietnam.
