We are thrilled to share that Kateryna Krusteva, an 18-year-old beauty from Varna known by her social media alias Kitty K, has been in China for the past two weeks, preparing for the Miss Tourism World finale.

Chinese media and experts are predicting that she could make it into the top 10, and possibly even the final five. The show is taking place today in Quanzhou, with preparations having been held in Shanghai for about 10 days. Kateryna was sent to the competition by the agency “Bok Star Models” after winning the Miss “In Love with the Wind” contest at the castle of the same name in Ravda at the end of summer.

As a gesture of goodwill, Kitty brought golden coins—symbols of the world-renowned tourist complex in southeastern Bulgaria—as gifts for the nearly 100 beauties from around the world participating in the contest. During the event, she will showcase several ball gowns from My Wedding and a traditional Bulgarian dress with national embroidery from the “Askia” atelier in Varna.

At 18 years old, Kateryna is a student at the First Language High School in Varna. In addition to her modeling and influencer career, she is also preparing for a future in acting.
