For such a young age, Kris Bernal is a pretty well-traveled Filipina; and travelers usually have their rituals. What are Kris’ ‘Travels Must Do’s and Must Don’ts’? Read on to find out! Text by Jason John S. Lim. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio. When you’re a teenager, what are the first thing you do when you’re abroad? Kris Bernal says you take pictures—for remembrance’s sake. So her number one must-have when traveling abroad: a camera! “Sa mga napuntahan ko, kailangan talaga ng camera.” Kris points out that it’s the most important thing to bring. Whether the pictures are be for bragging rights, or just to revisit the out-of-the-country vacation, Kris says that “minsan ka lang makapunta doon, so take advantage mo na ‘yung magagandang view, ‘yung magagandang places.” Another must-have is a tour guide—especially for places where their language is not your first, second or third. “Sa Bangkok!” Kris exclaims. The young actress says that it was one of the times her family employed the services of a tour guide. “Pag pumunta ka sa ibang bansa na may language na ‘di mo naintindihan, kailangan mo ng tour guide—kasi mawawala ka talaga.” Kris says she’s been to Singapore and parts of the United States, plus Bangkok, Thailand. Another must-have she lists down is money. “Huwag mo naman kalimutan—kamusta ka naman doon? Pag umalis ka, siyempre, check mo ‘yung gamit mo kung may naiwan ka or whatever. “Alangan naman balikan mo pa ‘yung [naiwan], ‘di ba?” Traveling with Kris The StarStruck alumnus reveals that she’s very particular with her things, thus she must be the one to prepare her things before leaving. “Gusto ko, kumpleto talaga ako: dala ko lahat ng facial wash ko, lotion ko—ayaw kong iba ‘yung nag-aayos. Kasi feeling ko, may naiiwan ako. “May listahan pa nga ako!” When she goes abroad, Kris never forgets those she left behind. So one of the important things in her travel agenda is to find souvenirs for friends! “Bumibili ako ng mga keychain, mga magnets sa [refrigerator]—hindi masyadong [malaki]. Mga pasalubong lang.” But she adds that she only brings how souvenirs for the special friends. Kris also reveals that her most unforgettable trip out of the country was going to Las Vegas, in the U.S. “Favorite ko Las Vegas.” She explains that she’s always seen the place in movies, with the bunny girls dancing and all the lights adorning the places, “tapos nung nakita ko. Super sarap ng feeling kapag nandoon ka na.” Kris adds with a smile, “saan ka makakakita ng ganoon dito sa Pilipinas?” Travel with your favorite stars through Fanatxt!
