"Mantener" or "conservar" los ojos abiertos. I prefer to keep my eyes open not out.

I think the English idiom is "keep AN eye out," meaning to watch for the arrival or appearance of someone or something. - AnnRon, Jan 31, 2017
I've heard of that one. - Daniela2041, Jan 31, 2017
Great, thank you! A friend told me that his family has a farm here in Colombia, where I am traveling. So if I said, "Mantengo los ojos abiertos", that would imply that I will be paying attention and looking for his family's land? Thanks again! - emilypshea, Feb 1, 2017
I'll keep an eye out " for you " , is the correct expression . - ray76, Feb 1, 2017
