Let’s learn to enjoy our time being curious, exploratory, and free just like Mia and her mindful adventures in sunny Cebu City. 🌞

CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF?

Hi! My name is Mia. I'm 24, and I'm a first-year law student in Cebu. I love yoga, food, animals, and traveling!

IF YOU COULD TRAVEL ANYWHERE, WHERE WOULD IT BE AND WHY?

Given the choice, I would probably choose to go to South Africa. It’s been on my bucket list for the longest time! I’ve heard that they had the most beautiful coastlines, dramatic mountainscapes, and vast wildlife like no other. I’ve always wanted to go on a safari tour and see the big 5! Shark-cage diving is also possible there, which is one of the things I’ve always wanted to do.

How have you been staying busy and positive during these times?

During this pandemic, yoga has helped me relax and see things positively. It has improved my mental health and has been very helpful in these trying times. I love how solemn yet challenging it is. It’s definitely something I try to do every day!

What are some activities you like to do? Can you share with us your New Normal Adventures?

Aside from yoga, I love to spend time with my family, Von, and dogs. They’ve been my support system in this pandemic, and have helped me adjust to the new normal.

What's been your most memorable adventure? Share one of your happy places!

If you could go back to anywhere, where would you go and what would you do?

One of my top favorite countries is Iceland. I've always wanted to see the northern lights, which first happened in Iceland! On top of that, the whole feel of Iceland was otherworldly. There was the extreme landscape of jagged lava fields, black sand beaches, and shining white glaciers. It was like being on another planet. Not to mention, the locals were very friendly and eager to show us around.

We can’t wait to get you ready for your NEXT adventures! What are you most looking forward to on your next Wink visit?

I can't wait either! I'm excited to try out laser hair removal. I'm most definitely looking forward to relaxing and just unwinding on my next Wink visit.
