A quintessential experience is to raft the Rio Grande through the Blue Mountains, stopping off at waterfalls and having picnics of barbecued fish.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I used to take my car and go down to the South Island for five or six days and climb glaciers and jump out of planes and jump off bridges and go white water rafting - a bit of thrill-seeking.
My idea of a vacation is staying home and doing short day hikes, floating the river and things like that.
Rio's a beautiful city, a vibrant place, special place.
I went to Brazil in 2010 and pretty much did songs about that trip. I was there just to hang out, chill with the people, and feel the vibe. It was great - tons of great women, great skin, good beaches. Can't complain; the food is great.
Climbing K2 or floating the Grand Canyon in an inner tube; there are some things one would rather have done than do.
People don't really go to museums in Rio. I shouldn't say it's not sophisticated, but, you know, they go to the beach.
So it allows me to travel, I'll be doing that and running these great rivers and doing what I've done in the past without much purpose other than for the experience.
I've always had an interest in doing something that was outside my comfort zone; I had this thing about standing on the edge of the cliff and deciding to jump.
I want to go skydiving. I'd love to go to the Galapagos. Nature still excites me.
I want to go base-jumping off Angel Falls and then canoeing down that river that goes east. That's what I really wanna do.
