MANILA – Several candidates of the 65th Miss Universe pageant obviously loved the Philippines that some of them decided to extend their stay in the country.

One week after the coronation, some of the contestants have been hitting the beach and taking to social media to share their awesome pictures.

For instance, Miss Universe US Virgin Islands Carolyn Carter is currently admiring the beauty of Palawan. Aside from visiting the Puerto Princesa Underground River, Carter went on to explore Palawan by heading to El Nido.

Like Carter, Miss Universe Germany Johanna Acs is also in Palawan with her family.

“Today I really felt like I found paradise on earth... Warm heartedly recommending everyone to visit this place once in your life! It was so worth the 6 hours drive from Puerto Princesa,” she wrote on Instagram.
