I've always enjoyed traveling and having experience with different cultures and different people. But it's also a wonderful thing to be able to benefit and enable research, not only in our country but around the world.

Living abroad has heightened my interest in how foreigners regard the strange places we encounter.

I spend every day up at the United Nations where I have to interact with 192 other countries. I know how well the United States is viewed.

It's wonderful to learn about new cultures and to be able to travel easily to so many countries.

I do a lot of traveling around the world.

I've been traveling all over the world for 25 years, performing, talking to people, studying their cultures and musical instruments, and I always come away with more questions in my head than can be answered.

I do a lot of traveling overseas.

One of the things I'm fascinated by as a traveler is watching how different countries control how they let the world encounter them.

I have been lucky enough to have had the opportunity of travelling across this country and enduring all the classic situations that go with talking to people.

I am a passionate traveler, and from the time I was a child, travel formed me as much as my formal education. In order to appreciate cultures of another nation, one needs to go there, know the people and mingle with the culture of that country. One way to do that, if one is lucky enough, is to buy things from those cultures.
