She sometimes works as an English translator as well. Added to that, she is also pursuing iconography and different animation courses.

Andela is 20 years of age and is from the city of Sarajevo and as if she does not have a lot on her plate, academically, Andela also has been doing volunteer work with young children since the past three years. Since the motto of Miss World is “Beauty with a Purpose”, she is really proving herself as a strong and worthy candidate.

Bosnia and Herzegovina are yet to make a mark in the Miss World beauty pageant since its commencement in the year 1951. The closest the nation has come to winning the title was in the year 2002 when Miss World Bosnia and Herzegovina 2002 Danijela Vinš secured a postion in the Top 20 in the finale. Angelopedia congratulates the winners and wishes Andela all the best for her delegacy in Miss World 2018.
