Cape Town - From experiencing her first snowfall to her first-ever New York-style hot dog - moving to The Big Apple has offered Zozibini Tunzi amazing opportunities, but of course Miss Universe 2019 gets homesick too.
And that's where proudly South African brand Aromat stepped in, to help.
Speaking to Channel24 about what she misses about home, Zozibini revealed that Aromat is at the top of the list.
She explained that when she can't find something that she craves in The Big Apple, that's when she misses home the most.

"The other day I wanted Aromat, and I wanted Aromat so bad. Nobody could understand what I was going through. Being surrounded by my culture, and my people is something that I will always miss the most," she said.
