Life is short and the older you get, the more you feel it. Indeed, the shorter it is. People lose their capacity to walk, run, travel, think, and experience life. I realise how important it is to use the time I have.

Every man who possibly can should force himself to a holiday of a full month in a year, whether he feels like taking it or not.

Travel in all the four quarters of the earth, yet you will find nothing anywhere. Whatever there is, is only here.

I want my handbags and my shoes to be stylish but I want to make sure that they're versatile. I travel and I have to make sure the pieces I put into my bag can go with a dress or with shorts or jeans.

Own only what you can always carry with you: know languages, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag.

The poem is not, as someone put it, deflective of entry. But the real question is, 'What happens to the reader once he or she gets inside the poem?' That's the real question for me, is getting the reader into the poem and then taking the reader somewhere, because I think of poetry as a kind of form of travel writing.

The world is a country which nobody ever yet knew by description; one must travel through it one's self to be acquainted with it.

My normal life is, I love to travel and I travel as often as I can. I don't stay in one place too long. But I'm an avid reader; I guess you could say I'm a bit of a bookworm.

Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.
