Celebrity Travel: Go away with Paige Spara

Jae-Ha Kim, Tribune Content Agency on

Born and raised in Washington, Pennsylvania, Paige Spara currently lives in Vancouver, where she films the ABC medical series “The Good Doctor.” Her character, Lea Dilallo, is the head of a hospital’s Information Technology department and is married to Shaun Murphy – an autistic doctor played by Freddie Highmore. “She’s the kind of person who strives to do good in the world and be there for the people she loves,” said Spara, 33. “Lea would make an excellent travel partner, if you enjoy impulsive adventures and are down to do anything and everything in a day. I’d travel with her.”

Q: This pandemic has made everyone think differently about how we spend our free time. What have you been up to?

A: I spend way more time enjoying the people I love than living through my phone, that's for sure. I actually spent three months in Mexico during the pandemic (since) I was already there. Later (I) returned to my childhood home in Washington. I recently took my momma to Italy, because she hadn’t been there yet. We adventured without a care in the world, taking it all in. To be utmost present while adventuring with the people I love is something I strive for more than ever, especially after the pandemic.

Q: What is your favorite vacation destination?

A: Currently, my favorite destination is Ravello, Italy, on the Amalfi Coast. I would suggest you roam the city and enjoy a meal from one of the mom-and-pop restaurants. I loved seeing the Italian families coming together to prepare a meal as they served it with such generous love and pride. I loved being in their company. Their energy was so happy, free and kind.

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

 

A: One of the first major trips I took as a child was to New York City with my mom. It felt more like home to me than my childhood home.

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

A: Traveling makes you live life so presently that you are made aware of how much joy you can actually experience in a day.

Q: If you could only pick one place to eat, would you prefer a food truck or fine dining?
