I have a whole different type of lifestyle.

I never wanted a traditional lifestyle. I'm not that kind of person.

I enjoy being active; it's part of my lifestyle.

There are things about the single lifestyle that are very appealing.

But I think there's something wonderful and extraordinary about climbing on your own and just that kind of relationship to the environment. I'm very addicted to the mountains. You know, so, I do like that solitude.

I am fascinated by the whole process of what it's like to be alive, whether it's unbelievably uncomfortable and horrible or whether it's quite nice.

I know what wanting and craving adventure feels like, I can really relate to that.

I'm not a 9-to-5 woman who has the same kind of lifestyle for years on end. I couldn't do it.

But even if I'm left high and dry at the end of this wild journey, just taking it is a great feeling.

I don't know any other lifestyle. I get up in the morning and I really do feel that the world is my oyster, and I start that way, the same as I would if I were preparing to write a song: put a blank piece of paper up on the piano and you go for it.
