Miss Denmark

Zaklina Sojic

What are your interests and what do you enjoy doing the most?
I like travelling overseas exploring and getting to know other cultures and people. I enjoy spendning my spare time with family and friends over good dinner Cooking is also one of the things that I enjoy doing.

What is your career ambition?
I am a very down-to-earth person. I will strive towards the goal that will make me complete and happy as an individual. This might either be working my way up the ladder, if a business career is my main focus, or maybe one day choosing to give my family a higher priority than a career. If I should choose to be career focused, my main criterion is a passionate job. If I choose family over career, it will be a volunteer choice, because family is the most important thing in my life. Everything depends on what the future brings, and who/what we are meant to be and become.

Describe where you were raised and what your childhood was like.
I was raised partly in Denmark and partly in former republic Yugoslavia. My childhood was happy, but also challenging. We moved from Denmark to Bosnia in 1981, where everyday life was wonderful and rich. However, poor economy caused my family some rough years and neglect in terms of staying together as a family. Moving back to Denmark at the age of 8 was a hard time. To begin a new life with new friends and a new language is not the easiest task in my life, but I overcame the language barrier, integrated in the society, understanding the Danish culture and being comfortable in my own shoes.

What do you want the judges to know about you?
It is hard to explain in few words what I stand for and who I am, but I will spare you the long story. I want you to know that I am one of the oldest in the competition and hence perhaps also more experienced in life. I am bringing Denmark to a whole new level in this competition with a new purpose and personality. I am an export engineer and have also studied cross-cultural interaction socially and on a business level and always interacted with different nationalities in my life. I have knowledge of a broad list of cultures, and I have adapted to most of them. Most people see me as multicultural person who understands many values in different cultures. I am warm, open, ambitious, helpful, and love is the essential motivation in my life. I have a weakness towards the less fortunate people in third-world countries and other poor parts of the world who usually are warm, interesting, generous and wonderful people. I work with the Danish refugee organisation where I volunteer in a social club for young teenagers with different backgrounds such as second-generation foreigners and foreigners with refugee parents. I interact with the children, we plan activities and help them to deal with conflicts, and I try to be a role model for integrating them into the Danish society. These girls are my biggest fans at this competition, and their thoughts and support mean the world to me. You will see a girl that is proud to present her country Denmark, a girl that will work hard to win, in order to realize her dreams and to make her country proud. I do not believe in luck, but only hard work! I will advise you to invest in me because I have a lot to offer, and I want to make a difference, not only for you and me, but for those who deserve a second chance. My wish is to utilize my competences and participate actively in better causes and projects and to commit to this lifestyle and profession.
