Celebrity Travel: Go away with Catie Li
A: The best relaxing vacation I went to was St. John (U.S. Virgin Islands). The water and scenery are breathtaking. Just going to all the beaches is what makes the entire trip. It’s a part of the U.S., so traveling is a bit easier.
Q: What was the first trip you took as a child?
A: My dad insisted on doing a Disneyland and Las Vegas trip every year since I graduated from college. I guess it was killing two birds with one stone – Disney for the kids and Vegas for the parents. (Laughs) Looking back, I love that we did that. But growing up going to the same place every year was boring as a teen. I guess our parents spoiled us too much, because looking back, that was a luxury.
Q: What's the most important thing you've learned from your travels?
A: Travel as light as possible! One time, I brought two suitcases to Venice (Italy) and had to drag them through stone walkways! (Laughs) Also, invest in great suitcases and organizational pieces. I love CalPak for that.
Q: If you could only pick one place to eat, would you choose a casual meal at a street cart or fine dining at a nice restaurant?
A: I mean, if you are traveling in Italy, literally any pasta place is chef’s kiss. But in L.A., I like going to Newport Seafood Restaurant in San Gabriel for my Chinese food fix. The lobster noodles are to die for! When traveling, I think you have to read about the scene. Some cities are known for carts and some for their restaurants. I try to do what the place is known for.
Q: Where is the most romantic destination?
A: Italy!
Q: Do you speak any foreign languages?
