Nadine Lustre
NAGBIGAY ng ilang dahilan ang actress-singer na si Nadine Lustre kung bakit nagustuhan niya nang bonggang-bongga ang buhay sa isla ng Siargao.
Tulad ng aktres na si Andi Eigenmann, maituturing na ring certified island girl si Nadine dahil halos isang taon na rin siyang naninirahan at pabalik-balik sa Siargao.
Sa katunayan, doon din niya nakilala ang boyfriend niya ngayong si Christophe Bariou na may mga property na rin sa isla at isa ring negosyante.
Ayon sa award-winning actress, marami siyang nadiskubre sa kanyang sarili sa ilang buwang paninirahan sa Siargao, at dito rin niya nalaman na kaya rin pala niyang mamuhay ng simple sa isang lugar na malayo sa Maynila.
“I think people are much chill more on the island. It’s probably the lifestyle, probably the salt water, I don’t know. That’s what I noticed comparing people here in Manila and in Siargao,” pahayag ni Nadine sa panayam ng CinemaNews.
Patuloy pa niya, “Life here in the city is so fast, like everyone is rushing. Even me ha, I feel the same way, I feel like I have to rush this, this, this. It’s never ending, it’s tiring.
“But when you’re on the island, parang everything is so chill and slow, save for work. The moments are even more…dito (sa Manila) kasi pak, pak, pak, done. But there it’s like, ‘ah okay nice,’” paliwanag pa ng dalaga.
Paglalarawan pa niya sa isla, “It has its magic. I think it’s something that people really fall in love with when they see and visit Siargao for the first time. The island hasn’t lost in touch, it’s still there,” sabi pa ng aktres.
Naibahagi rin ng ex-girlfriend ni James Reid na isa sa naging “manifestation” niya sa buhay ay ang paninirahan malapit sa kalikasan.
“I don’t know, I’ve always been, and I always wanted to be in nature. I am really a city girl, I think. And it’s funny because last year it was around May yata, mayroon kasi akong life coach, si Tita Cindy, we had a session, it’s a manifestation session.
“And we grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and she would asked me questions and one question she asked me was ‘where do you see yourself in two years?’ And then sinulat ko without hesitation.
“And ang sinulat ko is near the mountain or on the beach or by the mountain or by the beach. And then couple of months later, like I find myself living in Siargao and wow that’s crazy. I really believe in manifesting,” lahad ni Nadine sa nasabing interview.
Samantala, ikinuwento rin niya kung gaano kalaki ang naging epekto ng pananalasa ng bagyong Odette sa Siargao at sa mga residente roon.
“It was really scary kasi I think two days had passed na wala pa rin; no contact from the island like zero and then you don’t see anything on the news.
“So, sobrang nagwo-worry na ako noon. Of course, I have a lot of friends on the island. I have Chris (Christophe), my boyfriend, who was on the island as well with his family and by the third day yata yun, someone sent me a message on Whatsapp with a long message saying that he is okay, blah blah blah.
“You know it’s really scary na you don’t even really know if your loved ones are okay and safe and from all the videos that I saw the day before the second day, kasi may mga videos from the people na lumabas sa island kasi as in zero cell service like nothing,” sabi pa ni Nadine.
Isa ang aktres sa mga celebrities na talagang hands-on ang pagtulong sa isla. Nang makita raw niya ang matinding paghagupit ng bagyo roon ay agad siyang umaksyon.
“One of the stadiums where a lot of people were staying, yung roof niya nilipad siya ng hangin. And my friends were staying and when I saw that video, I was really, really worried, ‘di ba nakakatakot e, so sabi ko talaga I can’t stay here,” sabi pa ng lead star ng Vivamax original movie na “Greed” na idinirek ni Yam Laranas, kasama sina Diego Loyzaga at Epy Quizon.
