I just land somewhere, see what I think looks interesting, sniff around, and figure it out.
And theres one person she most enjoys sharing the process with: her 14-year-old daughter Bryn.
You need the right travel friend, the 53-year-old star said.

I have certain friends that I wouldn’t travel with and some that are amazing.
[Bryn is] a good travel friend, trained by me.
Theyre also on the same page with their routines.

We can roll shes a great wing woman and travel companion.
But the most memorable trip so far was to Paris.
She always wanted to go, and it landed the way you envision in a movie, Frankel said.
The teen even has perfected her travel prep.
She has her own process for packing and traveling.
With Bethenny Frankel
Aisle or window?Window.Destination you unexpectedly enjoyed?Abbotsford, Canada.
Its a forgotten small town.
Every single person who knew I was going there said, what are you gonna do there?
I think in Hawaii, it was a surfboard that’s just fun.
[Bryn] and I have a ritual to buy a special one locally in the Hamptons every year.
When we hang them, we remember the stories.WhichReal Housewifemakes the best travel buddy?Kyle [Richards].
We’ve been through theHousewivessphere.
Sometimes the game makes us think we’re in a different place in our friendship than we are.
Her kids are great and she’s great.
I’m also always wearing a scarf that can function as a blanket.
Im big on compression pouches and getting your carryon purse down in size.
Australia was a work trip that became an adventure for us for a week, she said.
But the destination is less important than the experience.
It could be Atlanta, it could be just another city that she doesn’t know of.
I kind of like the pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey of it in that regard.
It makes me say yes and take her anywhere I love that!
One place Frankels work recently took her was Vancouver, where she filmed the Lifetime movie.
That experience was unexpected, she said of there being an extra “pressure.”
I gained this appreciation for actors, she said.
I don’t know what I thought it was going to be, but it was a lot.
It’s definitely hard work.
Her favorite is being able to help elevate small businesses.
We were chasing Santa Claus and Bryn was hysterical that we were going to miss him, she remembered.
Thankfully it worked out and Santa arrived Christmas morning.
But I was dying and we were both exhausted!
Now that Bryns a teen, she appreciates her even in a different way.
For me, this age is so good because I have a companion, she explained.
Each little restaurant is like a cute discovery that you would never have heard of, she said.
