Mandy Moore details 'outdoorsy'

honeymoon in Chile

Mandy Moore explored her love for the
outdoors during her honeymoon in Chile.
The 34-year-old actress said on Jimmy
Kimmel Live! she enjoyed an "active" hon-
eymoon following her wedding to Taylor
Goldsmith.

"I love being outdoorsy and we wanted to Mandy Moore
have sort of an active honeymoon," she told
host Jimmy Kimmel. Moore said
Goldsmith, a singer for the band Dawes,
mainly enjoys reading and playing guitar but
was happy to join her outdoors.

"He's very kind to sort of indulge me, the star said. "He woke up at five
a.m. on this honeymoon and we hiked a volcano together, so he was very
amenable to the plan. He was wonderful about it."

"I think we hiked every single day that we weren't traveling when we
were in the country," she added. "I mean, we planned it together -- I don't
think he quite knew what he was in for."

Moore and Goldsmith married in November at an intimate wedding in
the backyard of their home. The couple asked guests to perform instead of
having a wedding band, and ended the evening with a romantic duet.

"Taylor and I got up at the very end and we sang a song together," the
actress said.

"We did a Kris Kristofferson-Rita Coolidge duet -- 'The Things I Might
Have Been,'" she shared. "It was really beautiful and mellow and the per-
fect way to cap off the evening."

Moore plays Rebecca Pearson on the NBC series This is Us. The show
is in its third season and co-stars Milo Ventimiglia, Chrissy Metz, Sterling
K. Brown and Justin Hartley.
