I love travelling and going on wildlife safaris. I have an interest in astronomy. I like reading on current affairs, business and science. I love doing nothing if I can help it.
Olives changed the direction of my life. My husband Michel and I found a ruined farm with an olive grove near Cannes. I became fascinated by olives and found myself travelling around the Mediterranean for 17 months, researching two books on the subject.
Travelling childhoods are a common theme among actors. Army kids, embassy kids, travelling salesmen, clergy. Thing is, you learn about behaviour, that different places are separated by behaviours which are culturally driven.
I was in Mauritius, shooting for ‘Break Ke Baad,’ and I went for skydiving. It was a life-changing experience. Travelling, dancing, and reading are my other pastimes.
Constantly travelling means I don’t always get to eat well – so it’s probably a good idea for me to do some exercise.
Anyone who has read my books will know that I don’t tend to use guides when I am travelling. It’s not a pride thing, but it is certainly a fact.
I love travelling, and had the pleasure of being in the most developed country in the world and then parts of two of the most pristine natural areas of the world: the Galapagos islands and the Equador Amazon jungle. The contrast was incredible.
I love travelling full stop – so while I’ve had some harrowing instances, I never look at them negatively. Memories are made when you’re travelling – not when you’re chained to your desk.
I really love travelling to places where I get to learn something new about a new group of people or a new place. Learn some history, contemplate some business ideas, and sort of get off the beaten track a little bit.
My mother has always kept the entire family together – my dad, due to his business, has always been travelling, and hence, she at times had to play the role of a father and a mother as well.
I don’t want to start getting my little violin out, but travelling across the world constantly and staying in hotels is tough, man.
I’ve actually never played a time traveler, for all the time travelling movies I’ve done.
The 90s for me was the best era for clubbing. I was having a great time working as a DJ, loads of money and travelling the world, but I found that the crowds were getting younger and younger and less appreciative of the soulful, funky music I was playing, so I jacked it in.
I try to go out, check out the town, and have a good time. It’s a life experience: not everyone gets the chance to see the world and play golf, do the thing you love while travelling.
The part you don’t expect when you start out is all the people who come into your life wanting a piece of you, not caring about your wellbeing. The insane schedule is very difficult. Touring looks very glamourous but it’s hard and gruelling – the travelling, the meet-and-greets – it was too crazy.
All your travelling is together, you eat together, you’re on stage as a band together, when you get to the sound-check the band and the crew are all together.
When I started we were travelling in vans, at that time we couldn’t afford B&Bs, so after the gig the band would all climb in the back of the van with our fish and chips and then wake up in the morning – six sweaty musicians, all the gear around us, and you’d think ‘oh god.’
From 1991 to 2000, I was totally nomadic. I was travelling 300 days a year and building out my research. These were a bit like my learning and migrating years, so to say.
I think travelling teaches you that there is a change which is constant and you have to develop an adaptive nature to be part of this celebration and to be a part of this journey called life. It gives a great understanding of people and their culture.
The international travelling gets harder as I get older, but when I’m performing on stage, it makes it all worth while.
I’ve enjoyed every minute of travelling and playing for my country. What an honour that is.
I do try to reduce my carbon footprint a little bit by travelling around London on my electric bike. A lot of people raise their eyebrows but I love riding it.
I have always loved travelling in autorickshaws.
Tennis is a tough sport – a long year, a lot of matches, a lot of travelling. It’s not easy so being mentally tough is a big attribute. It doesn’t come easy, you have to work on it.
The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.
I read most often when I am on the road, travelling on my journeys. In cars, on planes, trains… I’m very lucky that I don’t get car sick when I am reading and I can spend really long journeys immersed in a book!
When I started travelling, I would go to a city and be on television and I used to get the question, ‘Why do you work? If I were you, I’d just go and lie on a beach somewhere.’ And I’d answer, ‘Well, I wanted to make something of my life.’
I really enjoy travelling around the world. I get to meet some extraordinary people.
When I’m not acting, I’m usually sailing or camping or exploring or travelling or spending time in New Zealand.
I started travelling doing shows everywhere to make people feel like a sense of New Orleans wherever they may be.
It is challenging at times, especially while I am travelling, but my training gear and sports shoes are among the first things that go into my suitcase so that I can get in a good work-out session wherever I am.
When you’re travelling, your day is jam-packed. I just don’t have time to whip out a PC all the time. But I can whip out a BlackBerry and tweet. I keep a constant diary of where I’m at and why I’m there.
I’m used to playing football every day, travelling, playing games.
For me specifically, after travelling around the world I noticed that performers who had web shows had huge international popularity and that segued into a lot of events reaching out to book them.
I had to stay in school before I started travelling overseas.
On the whole, I find that it is best to adopt as far as possible the travelling equipments of the country in which one travels. The muleteers and servants understand them better, and if anything goes wrong or wears out, it can be repaired or replaced.
I feel travelling by road helps me connect with more people and understand their problems.
I love travelling, especially to Goa.
I’m not much of a reader; I’m more of a laptop person. I would never consider travelling without it.
Trust me: I’ve been travelling, making movies, and spending the remainder of my time at home.
I’m travelling more than ever. I don’t have the answer as to why, but the demand seems to have grown as I’ve got older.
I am seldom home, as I keep travelling because of work.
Travelling, in general, opens your mind to so many different cultures and different ways of thinking and different ways of seeing stuff. I definitely feel like it has an influence on my music to be a bit more broader and a bit more open.
The kids think we’re wacky. Mum and Dad are in showbiz – they don’t know any other way. They’ve grown up travelling all over the world and are getting a worldly education. My son is 12 and he can speak eloquently on religions and cultures.
When I was travelling in Rajasthan people were waving hands, and it felt like I was visiting my own constituency.
I’m always taking pictures and travelling with a camera and have so many photos that I’ve done a book.
I’ve never particularly liked travelling with large groups or being told where to go by somebody else. I prefer to find out for myself.
To be in the Champions League final is something you need to experience. To win it would obviously be the best experience ever. To be there, the build-up – with the media even, the stadium, travelling, our fans – it’s something very special.
Whenever I write a new song, it always happens when I come back from Europe or Egypt or something like that. It’s always from travelling.
I hope to be painting more and travelling. Maybe fall in love. Have a dog one day. You know, all the good things.
I’ve been travelling, returning home for promotional appearances, and juggling it all with being the mother of a five-year-old.
I’ve been all over the world on my own because, as a scientist, you travel a great deal if your work is reasonably successful or published. I get invitations to go to all sorts of strange countries where I would mostly be by myself and just meet other people there, instead of having travelling companions.
Actually, I want to work in all the languages in India, even if there is no money in some of the industries, like Bhojpuri, for instance. I like travelling, I like doing other films, checking out technicians and working with actors in different film industries. This is my plan.
I’ve travelled the world with football, but probably in a privileged way. We’ve travelled, and travelling means going from an airport to the pitch to the hotel. I haven’t really seen or explored things.
On the night of June 30, 1990, a minibus in which I was travelling was involved in a head-on collision on a road near Latina, in the region of Lazio, near Rome.
I am a reserved guy and need somebody to pep me up every day, Upsi does that job perfectly. She is very vivacious and outspoken, so we blend very well. We both love travelling, and we have a thing for adventure. We love being outdoors and like to ride our own boat rather than being rowed by someone else.
