There are many different types of travelers—calm ones who just need to lay down in the sun for half the day, adventurous ones who try out all the extreme sports and activities, history buffs who tour every museum in the new city they visit, and more. Our local celebs are also different types of travelers, but as they share their travels and experiences with their audience, we get to learn a little bit how they travel too, and sometimes, we can pick up a nugget of wisdom or two.
There’s always something new to be done in different places, and honestly, the biggest lesson we can learn from these celebs is to be open to trying out new things—because they can be very good for you. Among frequent travelers like Liza Soberano, Kyle Echarri, and more, they’ve learned their fair share of travel lessons—practical or otherwise. Check out some of them below.
KYLE ECHARRI
No shame in asking for help! It can be scary and overwhelming to be lost or stuck in an unfamiliar place, especially in the middle of nowhere, but staying calm and looking for help if you need it will help keep you safe and go about your journey. For actor and singer Kyle Echarri, who was riding through the Oregon woods and got a flat tire, they were lucky to find people who helped them out.
However, we also have to exercise caution when lost or stuck in an unfamiliar place. Always have a backup plan or at least carry knowledge of possible “outs” when exploring a new area. Kyle and his father being adult men is definitely an advantage for them. It’s not good to be too trusting and naïve in a world where people so frequently take advantage of others, but it’s also not good to assume the worst of people in a different place. Thankfully, he was able to find people willing to help and kept his wits about him.
ANDREA BRILLANTES
Travel can be so very therapeutic, and actress and entrepreneur Andrea Brillantes knows that for sure. Last year, Andrea went off on a solo trip to Spain and took home peace of mind and refreshed perspective. Solo travel, especially for first timers, can be very scary, but almost everyone who’s done it at least once or twice, including the young star, say it’s a pretty life-changing experience. If you’re in a funk, maybe a solo trip is all you need to get out of it.
CATRIONA GRAY
Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray had a less-than-ideal travel experience in London. Vacationing in the United Kingdom with her family, Catriona shared that their car was broken into and their belongings stolen when they were parked for lunch on the way to the airport. “Our passports and belongings—gone,” she wrote in an Instagram Story.
Just goes to show how you can’t ever be too careful in a different city. Robbery and pickpocketing are rampant in tourist-frequented cities, so make sure to be aware of your surroundings and don’t just leave your things laying around.
ALEXA ILACAD
Something so sweet and refreshing about seeing Alexa Ilacad on her travels is how she’s excited and grateful for each and every moment. It can be so easy to be jaded about things, and while travel is something people are normally thrilled about, it’s always nice to adopt a positive mindset when embarking on a new trip or journey. As Keith from the Try Guys says, “It’s fun when we’re positive! If we don’t want to have fun, we wont.”
GABBI GARCIA
Speaking of frequent travelers! Actress Gabbi Garcia constantly off on her own, with friends, or with her partner Khalil Ramos. The daughter of a flight attendant (her mom’s been with Philippine Airlines for over three decades), Gabii has travel in her blood. Take the opportunities you’re given, no matter how booked and busy you are. You may come to regret it.
LIZA SOBERANO
Liza Soberano going global is no understatement. From Seoul to Los Angeles, the actress has explored different cities and cultures, and has done so with plenty of respect. Liza’s never been one to shy away from trying out new things. The adventurous, driven, and down-for-anything Liza is pure inspiration not just for aspiring travelers and globetrotters, but generally, for people who want to pursue their dreams and live their best lives.
