Batanes, I will wear your name across my heart, with all my heart. ♥️ Ilang araw na lang at lilisanin ko ang paraiso na siyang ating probinsya, at susuuingin ang pandemya upang dalhin ang pangalan ng Batanes sa entablado ng Miss Universe Philippines. San man ako dalhin at kung ano man ang magiging kahinatnan ng paglalakbay kong ito, ako, na isang Ivatan, ay habang buhay mamahalin ang Batanes. • Witness our journey to the crown by subscribing to the Ring Light series on empire.ph.
