Loisa Andalio is all about making the most of her adventures in the company of those near and dear to her.
While social media shows people who loves solo traveling, Loisa admits to PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) that it is a concept that does not float her boat.
TRAVELING WITH LOVED ONES
Accompanied by her boyfriend Ronnie Alonte, Loisa explains that although the concept of solo traveling can be therapeutic to some, it can be less fulfilling to individuals such as them.
More so, since they consider traveling with someone as a means to elevate the overall experience by creating shared core memories.
“Siyempre mas naa-appreciate natin yung napupuntahan natin pag mahal natin yung kasama natin,” she relates.
“Basta ini-enjoy lang naman yung mga moments na magkakasama kami [ni Ronnie].”
The 25-year-old actress adds: “Gumaganda rin yung view dahil sa kasama natin.
“Minsan kasi, ang ano lang, hindi ko maintindihan yung mga tao na nagso-solo travel— parang ang lungkot.
“Kasi, sino yung kabatuhan mo na ‘ang ganda ng view’?”
She goes further by expressing she can never envision herself in the shoes of lone explorers.
“Grabe yung pinagdadaanan talaga siguro nila para gusto nilang magiging solo na lang.”
As for Ronnie, he briefly answers that he also can’t see himself adventuring by himself.
PEP.ph interviewed Loisa and Ronnie on April 18, 2024 at the unveiling of Master of G: MUDMAN.
Promoting athleisure-fit watches that complement seamlessly for every travel, Master of G: MUDMAN is the brainchild of G-shock and Team Land Cruiser Toyota (TLC) racing team, to embody the spirit of challenge.
LOISA AND RONNIE’S ROAD TRIPS
As an adventurous couple, Loisa discloses how she and Ronnie are big on land travels.
She shares, “Mahilig ako sa mga road trip talaga. Road trip namin, siguro yung mga pag nag-aano kami, camping, mga ganyan.
“Noong pumunta tayo sa Tanay, may ganyang area. Kasi may nasakyan kami, buggy cars talaga.”
“May nadaanan kaming putik talaga,” Ronnie adds.
Loisa continues, “Tsaka ano, yung nag-camping tayo, papunta yung Tanay naman. Tanay, Antipolo din.
“Kasi sa Tanay yung mga maraming camping site na mga road trip.”
DISCOVERIES ON THE ROAD
Traveling with someone can be one of the most telling ways to truly get to know them, and the LoiNie loveteam certainly uncovered some fun and interesting facts about each other.
Starting light, Loisa opens: “Siguro, ano lang, na-discover ko na mainipin lang siya sa daan.
“Ayaw niya yung mahahabang, yung mga 4 hours na biyahe talaga.
“Ayun yung na-discover ko sa kanya, pero masaya naman siya kasama,” she assures with a laugh.
“Di naman kami nawawala kasi may Waze naman e. Di pa naman kami nawawala.
She jokes, “At tsaka pag nawawala kami, babaliktarin lang daw yung damit.”
Keeping at her playful teasing, she reveals, “Ang na-discover ko sa kanya, pangit mag-picture din.”
On Ronnie’s end, he finds himself gravitated to Loisa’s enthusiasm every time she is in awe of the sceneries.
“Nakita ko sa kanya yung grabe siya ma in-love sa mga paligid lalo na pag umaalis kami sa mga malalayong lugar.”
He recalls: “Kagaya nung nag camping kami, grabe niya ma-appreciate yung nature, yung ambiance ng lugar.
“Ako kasi, pag minsan, kapag lalo na long drive, tamad na tamad na ko, e. Hindi ko na makita.”
Loisa quips, teasingly: “Oo, nag se-cellphone lang siya minsan tapos sabihin ko, ‘Beh, ang ganda, di ba?’
Relating how he would miss out on the scenery, she adds, “Wala na, tapos na, lumagpas na tayo. Hindi mo na makita kung saan yung maganda.”
Ronnie ends with a heart-fluttering remark: “So ganun, grabe siya. Ako medyo tamad lang talaga. Pero, basta siya, kaya ko.”
