Nazarena Mía “Naza” Torrejón, 22, will represent Argentina in the 26th edition of Miss Earth. Based in Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines, the international beauty pageant advocates for environmental awareness, conservation and social responsibility.

Torrejo is a law student and a model from Salta, one of the 23 provinces of Argentina. One of the most important exports from the province is sugar cane, which is processed in plants in the province before it is sent to the rest of the country and other countries.
