Girl We Love: Danika Nemis

What do you do when you're not traveling?

When I’m not traveling, it feels like I’m still on a vacation because I live in La Union and the beach is just right in front of our house. I just surf and take care of my baby girl, Luna and we watch the sunset everyday.

What are your travel must-haves?

My travel must-haves are powerbank, VCO Virgin Coconut Oil to keep my skin moisturized, sunscreen and my favorite rose facial mist. 

What do you like most about Wink?

What I like the most about Wink is their branding. Most of their clients are fun, adventurous, always on the go and confident women like me! Also, when I get a service done, they make sure that I am very comfortable and well taken care of. 

How does Wink help you with your travels?

I wear bikinis all the time and it’s such a hassle to always bring razors and spend time and money on shaving. I am very thankful with Wink because now I am always beach-ready and I don’t have to worry about anything. And after each session, I feel more confident with my body. 

Best trip you've ever been on?

The best trip I’ve ever been on was the first time I went to Siargao. It made me appreciate the simple things in life. I was so amazed how beautiful the island and the people who live there were. My day on the island consisted of surfing, eating and hanging by the beach.

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

I wanna see the northern lights with my family and skydive in Utah and Africa!

What do you love about traveling?

What I love about traveling is being exposed to a different culture and having to try different local food and hearing different languages. It feels good and liberating to be someplace where nobody knows you. 

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

I love Indonesian food. 

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

If I could be anywhere right now, I’d wanna be in Aspen, Colorado skiing.

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

Always pack light. Wherever you go, make friends with the locals.
