I know it's not strictly sex that accounts for my straying the motive usually attributed to men. I think it's just too tempting to have two lives rather than one. Some people think that too much travel begets infidelity: Separation and opportunity test the bonds of love.

The appeal of the double life begets travel.
Elisabeth EavesLong-term travel isnโt about being a college student; itโs about being a student of daily life.

Sarah MacLeanThe reason I live in America is because I mean literally every six or seven years I've done something in England. The last lead I had in an English film I did was 1998.

And if we can stay open and embrace our insecurities, our vulnerability, only then will we find the person with whom we are meant to travel through this life.
