You know, from the moment we've arrived, smiles always smiles. Everyone is happy. Everyone wants us to be here. Everyone is sharing their lives with us, and we just feel like we've found a new home," Morley told ANI.

As you may know and have heard, Miss World is about actually doing the action, not only the talking, so in all of the states we're visiting, we're trying to find some project. We're trying to be helpful. I visited the temple, which was a magical experience. I always dreamt of going to the Hindu Temple to see how it is, and my dream came true yesterday. I received a lot of blessings..." she said. Recalling last year's event, which was held at the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), Pyszkova reiterated her admiration for India's hosting of the pageant.
