Biography

Early life and career beginnings

She is a daughter of two Vietnamese immigrants. She describes her childhood days via Miss Earth official website as, "I'd spent my childhood in a small town of Sosnowiec. I had it pretty tough, since I was the only Asian child at school. The kids used to call me names and point their fingers at me, but after some time I'd managed to cope with them, and they stopped noticing my race. I used to be a very ambitious child, so at the time I'd been studying a lot. I'd been attending additional classes of English and arts. At age 11, I took part in my first charity action, and since then, my story of charity activity has been running. In the meantime, I had moved to the capital city, Warsaw, together with my parents. That is also when my journey with dancing had begun."

2015: Miss Earth and Miss Egzotica

"Climate is like a woman - it keeps changing, yet it always retains its inner beauty."

—Magdalena's message for Miss Earth.

The Miss Earth franchise was given to the Miss Egzotica pageant, headed by Serafina Ogończyk-Mąkowska in 2015. Miss Egzotica is an annual pageant for Polish women who have a multiracial roots. The pageant supports diversity to raise awareness in Poland. The pageant was awarded a European Medal by the BCC, European Economic and Social Committee in Brussels and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Magdalena Ho was the winner of the pageant in 2014.[5][6]

Being the winner of Miss Earth Poland 2015, Magdalena has become Poland's representative at the Miss Earth 2015 and would try to succeed Jamie Herrell as the next Miss Earth.[7][8][9]

As a Miss Earth delegate, an advocacy is a must. When she was asked about her advocacy as Miss Earth, she answered via Miss Earth official website, "I do my best to promote the protection of the environment as much as I can. It is important to get to as many people as possible and teach them those small things that matter in the big picture: segregation of garbage, cleanness in their homes and outside it and so on. A major role is also played by social campaigns or environmental action which I readily promote and take part in."

When she was also asked about how she can promote her country, she replied, "Apart from the amazing landscapes, I surely would like to mention traditional Polish cuisine, which includes the legendary pierogi, bigos and pork chop. We also carry wonderful culture, tradition and history, which is worth being known by everyone."
