Celebrity Travel: Go Away With Chynna Phillips
A. Italy. I live in Santa Barbara and I'm surrounded by mountains and ocean. The countryside of Italy reminds me a lot of home. It's nestled between mountains and ocean with breathtaking views, fantastic shorelines, great hiking and great surfing.
Q. Where would you like to go that you have never been to before?
A. I'd like to go to the Seychelles. I've never been to Bora Bora or Mustique either. I've also never been to Thailand and would love to go there.
Q. When you go away, what are some of your must-have items?
A. My traveling kitchen, my one-pound weights that I bring with me wherever I go and my bible. One way I've figured out to relieve the stress of packing, especially on tours, is to make myself a master checklist. I carry it with me on my iPhone and access it whenever I travel. Not only does it help me pack before I leave, but it helps me pack up my hotel room. I hate forgetting things!
Q. What would be your dream trip?
A. To go to Spain for an extended stay and study Spanish because I'm 80 percent fluent. I'd love to master the language. And I love a good paella.
Q. What are your favorite restaurants?
A. Adama (http://adamavegan.com/) in Santa Barbara. Sakana in Santa Barbara, because they always add a twist to the sushi. Toscana (http://www.toscanabrentwood.com/ ) in Brentwood, Calif. And Shun Lee (http://www.shunleewest.com) and GustOrganics (http://www.gustorganics.com/) in New York City.
Q. What is your guilty pleasure when you're on the road?
