What inspires you to travel?
Learning, learning, learning.

What are some of your favorite destinations?
I'm a big fan of the mountains, green places, places with trees. Stuff that appeals to the hippy hidden under all this hair dye and fancy Adidas.

What are your travel essentials?
Cameras (usually a couple), shoes (usually a couple), a yoga mat if I have room, clothes that I like, underwear (hmmm, this can be tricky, sometimes when I'm low on space, I bring enough for every other day and then turn them inside out ... don't tell anyone though).

What do you miss about Bangkok while you are away?
Ohh tons of stuff, movies, art, air-conditioning, my shoes, my boyfriend if I'm filming the TV show, food ... but whatever, that's all waiting for me when I get back. The cool thing about traveling is that home generally stays the same, it's there waiting to welcome us with open arms when we get back.

How do you maintain health and fitness when you are away?
I make a point to practice yoga when I travel, however I rarely can do a full 90 minutes. Usually I'm squeezing in 15 minutes on whatever surface I can clear away. Food-wise, I'm lucky that vegetarian food is generally easy to find in Thailand, however I often find myself quite bored with eating the same mixed stir-fry vegetables over and over again.

What is your most treasured possession you have picked up while traveling?
I rarely shop when I travel ... unless it's to foreign countries, then I try to get books on language. Even if I'm not going to really dig into the language, I like to learn 30-40 words while I'm visiting. Plus, I love to read grammar books when I'm hanging out around the house ....
