If you’re heading to the Shanghai Expo and don’t feel like spending your day under the sun in line for one of the biggie pavilions; head over to the (surely cool) Iceland Pavilion, where you can rub elbows with Miss World 2005 Unnur Birna Vilhjálmsdóttir. According to the Iceland Expo site, Unnur is heading up the role of Deputy Director of Pavilion and Director for PR & Events (I figure that between her name and her title, she must need two business cards).
Huge hat tip and thanks to Lost Laowai reader Giulia for snapping the photo and sending in the tip. In talking to Unnur at the pavilion she mentioned she was only going to be at the pavilion for the next couple weeks, so if you’d like to meet a real-life Miss World, head on over soon.
When I head on down to Shanghai next week, I hope she will still be there.
Thank you for the post.
