Girl We Love: Soleil Ignacio

Fun fact about you

Hello I’m Soleil! My name means Sun in French. ☀️

What do you like most about traveling?

Cliche but I get to see new and different things! As an artist, I love getting to experience different cultures’ own sense of art and design. From galleries, architecture, shops, cafes, and street art.

What do you do when you're not traveling? 

Thinking of our next trip and working to fund that next trip, lol. And also playing with our cats!

Any surprising things you bring with you when you travel?

I bring some of my prints with me. You never know who you meet so better be ready haha. As a self-employed artist, every holiday is a work trip as well!

What's the last trip you took?

Siquijor with my friends. :-)

Favorite hotel/accommodation you've stayed at

A villa in Canggu Bali and also a typical NYC loft-style airbnb in Brooklyn.

What's the one place you keep going back to:

If I need a quick and spontaneous beach trip, La Union.

Top 3 places on your must-visit list: 

Dead Sea, Sheldrick Elephant Sanctuary in Kenya, and Siargao before it gets too congested hehehe (never been).

What do you like most about Wink?  

The beautiful interiors, cute branding, and the lifestyle it offers ☀️

How does Wink help you with your travels? 

One less thing to think of as I pack for my trip! Until I find enough confidence to just flaunt my natural body hair, I’m very happy Wink is here to support me.
