Girl We Love: Samantha Corrales

What do you do when you're not traveling?

When I’m not travelling, I devote my time to my university’s cheerleading team. I’ve been passionate about this sport for about 8 years now. Aside from that, I'm pursuing my undergraduate degree in UP Diliman for Journalism, so I attend my classes during the day and train in the evening.

What are your travel must-haves?

I make sure to bring a bottle of Maui Babe Browning Lotion, sunscreen and a pair of sunnies.

What do you like most about Wink?

Everyone is so nice in Wink! ;) Whenever I go for my laser sessions, they always make sure that I have the best (and safest) experience in their studio. They briefed me about my procedure during my first session and checked on me the day after.

How does Wink help you with your travels?

Wink definitely gives me confidence because I am hair-free. I can wear anything I want, anytime!

Do you have a travel bucket list? If yes, what countries/places are on it

Bali, Hawaii, Morocco, Maldives and Italy are on my bucket list. Locally, I want to go to Palawan and Siargao!

What do you love about traveling?

The best part about travelling is that you get to experience different cultures. You learn to immerse yourself with the people and their environment, which makes you develop a certain attachment to the place.

What has been one of your favorite dishes you've eaten while traveling?

I love Thai food, especially tom yam and mango sticky rice!

If you can be anywhere right now, where would you be and why?

Right now, I’d love to be exploring the lagoons in El Nido and diving in Coron. I love the beach and I’m a marine life enthusiast, so I would surely appreciate the nature there. <3

What's your go-to traveling hack/tip?

Take lots of pictures, but don’t forget to appreciate what’s in front of you! You can also keep a journal. It’s nice to jot down ideas or draw beautiful things during your travels.
