"I talk to everybody. I ask them how they are doing. I try not to make it all about me, just about me, but I want to get involved with other people as well and talk to them and communicate with them because information keeps going out but no information is coming in. So that’s how I do it,” Wurtzbach explained to the reporters.
Wurtzbach also mentioned that simply seeing the Philippines reminds her of the steps she took to get to where she is now, and that itself is very humbling.
Before flying back here to the Philippines for her grand homecoming, Wurtzbach has already had numerous interviews and events in New York, where the headquarters of the Miss Universe Organization is located. Filipinos welcomed her on Monday with a homecoming parade in Pasay, Manila and Makati.
