Actress Molly Bernard ("Sully") likes staying busy, which is a good thing given her work schedule. The star of TV Land's "Younger" -- where she portrays publicist Lauren Heller -- also has a recurring role on the Emmy Award-winning series, "Transparent" (Amazon Prime Video). Bernard, 29, resides in Brooklyn, and is a fan of New York in general: "In the summer, I love Fire Island. It's my main destination and I spend a lot of time dreaming about it during the cold winter months."

Fans may follow her on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/bollymernard), where she posts photos of her travels and her dog, Henry.

Q. What is your favorite vacation destination?

A. I love Berlin. It's one of my favorite cities in the world. I'd say you must go to the Bauhaus-Archiv. It's my favorite museum. And take a trot through Volkspark Friedrichshain. And ride your bike to and around Tempelhof.

Q. What untapped destination should people know about?

A. I love Sheepshead Bay and Brighton Beach in Brooklyn. I feel at home when I'm there. Tons of Russian folks, great food and the beach!

Q. What was the first trip you took as a child?

A. Disneyland. What's not to love? I made BFF's with Alice and the Rabbit and had the time of my small life on It's A Small World.

Q. What's the most important thing you've learned from your travels?

A. To be OK with being alone. I love traveling solo. I feel very close to myself and always learn a ton. I talk to everyone, make friends with people I otherwise would not, and I like to get to know parts of the city that feel untapped and sweeter than touristy parts. Also, it took me a while to learn this, but I try not to buy things when I travel these days and, if I do, I am very picky. I used to want to buy everything so I had mementos. Now I prefer to eat up the city and enjoy what is in front of me in a very alive, non-consumer style. I try to savor the culture and I find it makes me a much happier traveler.
