I slalom ski. I wakeboard. I hike and rock climb.
Hoeing in the garden on a bright, soft May day, when you are not obligated to, is nearly equal to the delight of going trouting.
I don't do girlfriendy sort of things, like shopping or going to spas. Spas fill me with horror. Frankly, I'd be more interested in doing a walk through the sewers of London!
Music was a big part of my family with gatherings, picnics, barbecues.
Growing up in Rochdale, I think, all the kids in my street, pretty much every boy was playing cricket. I had four brothers as well, and we played a lot together. When it was just me on my own, I was bowling at a drainpipe.
I've never been to a beach party before. We have gravel-pit parties in Alaska.
I was working on the farm to get in shape, about a mile away from my parents. You know, I did everything as a kid to stay in shape - jogging, work on the farm, driving the tractor. I'll never forget.
I love to exercise outside in the fresh air and sun: hiking, swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, and jogging.
'Fresh Air' I listen to, like, every day.
My body's urge is to be in a pair of shorts, working and going down to the beach.
Guy Nearing told us it's a good idea when hunting mushrooms to have a pleasant goal, a waterfall for instance, and, having reached it, to return another way. When, however, we're obliged to go and come back by the same path, returning we notice mushrooms we hadn't noticed going out.
When I'm in South Africa, I make it a point to take my dogs out to the beach.
There are so many fun places to hike.
We lived on the Key West Army Base. Key West for me was a tropical island paradise.
I'm super active, so sitting on the couch and staring at the walls isn't ideal for me.
When you grow up on a farm, you grow up fast.
I love the whole layout of Vancouver and the super-friendly people who live there.
Joy comes from places you least expect it. It's usually the simple things, like watching my son play basketball or going through Central Park when the blossoms are blooming.
I'd rather climb Everest than go for a walk in the park.
I know a lot of people in Phoenix, so I've had some great nights there. It's always hot, too, so it's just a nice to be outside in the evening.
For the most part, I hang out in my back yard with my dog, but there's no paparazzi trying to check that out.
I read, go for walks and I love to garden. My hands are such a mess. People think I should have movie star hands, but they're just gardening ones. Always slightly grubby and with a bit of dirt under the fingernails.
I think it's really important to be outdoorsy.
I grew up in the suburbs of Connecticut - during the school time of year - but I preferred it in New Hampshire. I preferred the culture, the landscape, the relative solitude. I've always loved it.
When I grew up, we went to Coney Island and Central Park. We'd find our way to the water and watch the fireworks.
