Palacios, who made history as the first Nicaraguan to win the prestigious Miss Universe title, will arrive at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport on Monday afternoon.

The visit, organized in partnership with Zimbabwe’s Ministry of Tourism and Hospitality Industry, is part of Palacios’ international tour following her crowning achievement in San Salvador, El Salvador.
