There are two worlds: the world of the tourist and the world of everyone else. Often they're side by side. But the tourist doesn't actually see how people live.

I don't think I've ever seen a person having a serious conversation on a cellphone. It's like a kiddie thing, a complete time waster.

Travel works best when you're forced to come to terms with the place you're in.

You go away for a long time and return a different person - you never come all the way back.

The amount of hassle involved in travel can be overwhelming.

I hate vacations. I hate them. I have no fun on them. I get nothing done. People sit and relax, but I don't want to relax. I want to see something.

Everyone had an opinion and no one had a solution.
