I travel in a Ford Econoline van with a trailer. So it's not quite so glamorous.

It's a well known thing that ordinary perceptions can have a strange aspect when one is travelling.

I want people to be transported by the hotel. I'm thinking, What is it that would make people be delighted and amazed?

Well, I've claimed to have seen two ghosts in a hotel room.

Bikes and planes aren't about going fast or having fun; they're toys, but serious ones.

It's like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.

People get really caught up in their own trips.

On a bike, being just slightly above pedestrian and car eye level, one gets a perfect view of the goings-on in one's own town.

My main form of transportation at that time was a bicycle, because bicycles could move though the crowd.

I came from a hospitality background and saw that 80 percent of seats in cars weren't occupied most of the time.
