Pailin Rungratanasunthorn
From The Amazing Race Asia Season 3
Whew, What a long name, and, researching for pictures is harder than I thought. I guess she’s not that well-known as her partner, Natalie. I even tried looking at some Thailand-blogs. Nada. So, anyone out there who can lead me to some good Pailin photos other than those already in AXN’s site, and these two, just comment here or upload some in the gallery.
Anyway, 25-year-old Pailin, from team-beauty queen, was the first runner-up in her country’s 2006 search for Miss Thailand Universe. This eventually led her to represent Thailand in the 2006 Miss Earth, held here in the Philippines. Basing from credentials alone, I guess we now know who to focus our attentions to.

Unfortunately, beauty queens, Pailin and Natalie were eliminated from the race yesterday. Their run lasted only three episodes. From their stint, it seemed like Natalie was more the high-maintenance “beauty queen” type. Pailin was actually kind of cool and “game” during the race, and was not overshadowed (as I thought would be the case) by Natalie’s Miss Universe-winning beauty.
