Celebrity Travel Profile: Alexa Vega

2. What’s one thing you always pack? Something you always forget to pack?

AV: My hair stuff! I have crazy curly hair, and if I don’t pack the proper tools to contain it, I’ll look like a crazy lady the whole vacation. I always forget to pack my mini steamer, and I always need it!

3. What’s it like to travel in the film industry? Do you ever get time to explore on your own?

AV: I love traveling for films. So often we go to cities we would never visit on our own. I just wrapped a film that shot in Manistee, Michigan. I never would have explored that town had I not been shooting. It is so small! But I love being able to say I have been there. I find it hard to explore a whole lot, it always depends on the production schedule. You can explore some cities more than others. It’s the luck of the draw.

4. Where is a city, country, or place you’re dying to visit?

AV: South Africa! I really want to experience a safari. My husband and I love the outdoors, and are inspired by the Discovery Channel. It would suit us well.

5. Do you prefer traveling solo, with a friend/family member, or with a large group of people? Why?

AV: I love traveling with a large group of people. I think there is always something to do regardless of weather and time. Plus, sharing those moments with people closest to you gives you the best memories. Although, my husband and I still haven’t had our honeymoon yet because we keep inviting people on trips with us. So we have to reserve one trip just for us soon!
