Shay Mitchell Reveals How Traveling Has Changed Her View On Life & Approach To Motherhood

It's no secret Shay Mitchell loves to travel, and her new Max series, “Thirst,” follows the actress as she visits Peru, Colombia, Argentina and Brazil to learn all about the unique drinks that are specific to each location. While abroad, the 37-year-old learned about the different cultures and traditions of those countries, and she told Access Hollywood how traveling abroad has changed her outlook on life and approach to motherhood. “I think just rediscovering that we’re a lot more alike than we think, no matter where we are in the world, and I love that,” she said. Shay is mom to 2-year-old daughter Rome and 3-year-old daughter Atlas, and she said her daughters already love to travel! “Listen, with names like Atlas and Rome, you kind of like have to love traveling, I think it’s ingrained in them,” she said. “But I think so far on all of the trips that we’ve had they absolutely love it.” One of Shay’s close friends and “Pretty Little Liars” co-star Ashley Benson just welcomed a daughter. Although Shay said she hasn’t met the little one yet because of scheduling conflicts, she will meet her “sooner than later” and gushed over Ashley as a mom. “She’s an incredible mom, as we all knew she would be, and it’s just awesome to see her as a mom now, it’s crazy,” she said. “Thirst” streams on Max May 23.
