Miss South Africa Tamaryn Green is holding her own in Thailand ahead of the Miss Universe pageant

The 24-year-old is currently in Bangkok taking part in several events before the official ceremony on December 17.

“The moment I’ve been looking forward to for so long, to wear the South African name across my chest, and in my heart. I feel your love and support all the way from Bangkok,” she wrote on Instagram.

Tamaryn’s first day representing South Africa included a photo call with the other contestants.

She showed off how poised she is by speaking confidently during a Q&A with the press.

The final year medical student is also winning over the other contestants
She has been spotted mingling with several beauty queens including Miss Australia, Miss USA, Miss Thailand, Miss Japan, Miss Honduras, Miss Thailand, Miss Indonesia and Miss Angola.

“Went exploring with these beautiful ladies,” she captioned a selfie of some of her new friends.

It's been an amazing few days in Thailand. I've been making memories and friends during my time at #MissUniverse and the fun is only just beginning. #SouthAfrica

The contestants are busy getting to know Thailand and all the country has to offer before they go head-to-head for the Miss Universe crown.

The women visited SiamSnail Eco Park on day four of the festivities, where they learned how “these interesting creatures contribute to skincare products”.

Reigning Miss Universe, South Africa’s Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters, will soon be flying to Thailand to meet with the women.

Hopefully she will share some tips with Tamaryn.

“I am so excited to meet you all soon. Don’t forget to take it all in and have fun. It was the best two-week experience of my life,” Demi-Leigh wrote on Instagram.

Tamaryn is already an early favourite to win the pageant.

She has featured in several “early prediction” videos for the Top 6 and Top 15 of the pageant.

We are crossing our fingers and toes for you, Tamaryn!
