I always enjoyed politics. I worked at the White House recently primarily for the First Lady. Because of my experience running my travel agency I was in charge of the files she kept on the Travel Office.
I really wish we could stay longer in the countries we visit but I've been lucky to have visited most of them before because I've done a tremendous amount of travel.
Since traveling is such a big part of my life when I am working I like to vacation relatively close to home. Florida is a great place for me to go and relax. It's so close which is perfect because it's the minimal travel time.
I think it's important to travel around in order to get a notion of what's going on to find out what people are think about. I enjoy talking on campuses most because people are more informed and discussion is generally livelier.
As far as my favorite sites I do a lot of mundane stuff on line because I travel so much.
I'm extremely blessed because I travel extensively for my work but I always try to incorporate a bit of leisure with business.
It's like this - because I travel so much I crave certain foods or certain things like from certain places that I've been.
When you're a kid I think you want to be a film star. And I'm not as enamoured with that any more. The reality of that life is a lot of travel and a lot of being away which is impractical because I have four children so I don't want to be away that much not the other side of the world away.
All of my friends are animal people. To me cats are people too. Animals are people too. I travel a lot and when I go overseas it's really hard on me because the animals are treated much differently especially in developing countries.
People think I'm crazy because I travel too much but I haven't been doing any of that lately because I got a little sick this year and I've tried to take care of it.
