YOGYAKARTA: Miss Universe Maria Gabriela Isler enjoyed visiting Indonesia, including the opportunity to bake bakpia cookies.

'€œI'€™m happy because I was allowed to see and learn about Indonesian culture myself,'€ said the Venezuelan as quoted by kapanlagi.com.

In Yogyakarta, for example, Isler said that she was given chance to bake the city'€™s famous cookie, bakpia, and to wear batik.
