Celebrity Travel: Go Away With Chynna Phillips
A. Sleeping in. I love to sleep in. And sneaking in a massage whenever I can.
Q. What kind of research do you do before you go away on a trip?
A. I like to make sure there's a Whole Foods or Natural Market within 10 miles of my destination, if I'm traveling within North America. If I'm outside of the United States, I like to make sure whatever hotel I'm staying at uses primarily organic vegetables. My dietary sensitivities make it very difficult to enjoy traveling if I am not able to eat properly, so this sort of research is very important to me!
Q. What is your worst vacation memory?
A. It was just this Christmas, actually. I traveled with my family to Sun Valley for a skiing vacation and the day after we arrived we all contracted the Norovirus. Me, my three kids, my husband and the other family we were staying with -- we all ended up in the hospital, having to get IVs. That was a fabulous trip.
