THE last month or so is always a busy time for most, but for one Cranbourne mother it’s been a total whirlwind.
Mother of two and pageant contestant, Mrs Australia Becky Branca recently returned from China where she attended the Mrs Globe competition.
The Cranbourne North resident said it went great.
“It was such a fantastic and rewarding experience,” she said.
“You know when you feel like you’re in the right place at the right time.”
Ms Branca was overseas for just over 10 days and said it was “full on”.
“Each day we had a full production on live TV,” she said.
“I was in the paper nearly every day.”
The pageant has a high profile in China and Ms Branca said it was huge, with her face on billboards all across the city.
The Mrs Australia won “Most Helpful” during her time over there and said as an Australian it was a great privilege. Mrs South Africa won the pageant overall.
“Most helpful is like their miss congeniality,” she said.
“We hold ourselves in high regard of helping others.”
A proud supporter of a number of charities, including Pink Hope and Bully Zero, she hoped to raise her profile further and one day work from home and pursue her career as a fashion designer.
Ms Branca was proud to make the final over in China and said visiting orphanages were a highlight for her.
