After conquering the Universe, Rabiya Mateo starts her vlogging career!

"Hi guys! This is Rabiya, and this is my last day here in the US."

Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Rabiya Mateo officially joined the expanding list of content creators and vloggers yesterday, July 7.

In a 13-minute vlog, the beauty queen shared her last day in Los Angeles and her flight back to the Philippines.

She had brunch with friends including Miss Universe 2014 Top 10 finalist Mary Jean Lastimosa, whom she referred to as her 'sister'.

A carefree 'Ibyang,' as her fans call her, was seen in the vlog with her telling how she fell asleep even before her flight took off.

"Hindi ko raw naramdaman 'yung take-off!

"Ginigising nila ako, hindi raw ako magising. Akala nila I took some melatonin kasi I'm knocked out talaga.

"Ang ginawa nila, unti-unti nilang binaba yung leg rest ko tapos sila na lang yung nag-seat belt sakin," the Ilongga beauty queen laughingly shared.

She added: "Can you imagine, hindi ko siya naramdaman?!"

Rabiya also informed her viewers about the advised quarantine period protocol for her now that she is back in the country.

She was ordered to self-quarantine at a hotel in Makati for 10 days, with an additional four days once she gets back to her place.

On her Instagram post, the beauty queen said that she was the one-woman team behind the vlog.

"Did all the editing from the thumbnail, trailer, up to the actual video. I guess this quarantine period allowed me to be more creative and artsy," the beauty queen penned in her caption.

Fans and followers showered her Instagram with hearts and congratulations.

After her Miss Universe stint in Florida, Rabiya stayed in the US to make the most out of her trip.

Since then, she had been actively sharing on Instagram her two-month vacation in L.A.

Recently, Rabiya met The Young Messiah director Cyrus Nowrasteh and had dinner with him.

Cyrus, in a reply to a comment of a fan, shared that the beauty queen "is about to star in a TV show in her home country."

Whether vlogging or acting, now that she is finally back home, opportunities are surely flowing limitless for Rabiya.
