Celebrity Travel: Go Away With Dan Storper
A. The little indigenous village of Sibundoy in the Putumayo River Valley transformed my life by launching me on a craft importing business I named after this lovely town that is known for its handicrafts. Unfortunately, it's not a safe place to visit at this time, although most of Colombia is, and there are plenty of wonderful cities and towns there to visit.
Q. Where are your favorite weekend getaways?
A. Long weekends in Vermont or Maine from New York, and Apalachicola, Florida and Cajun country from New Orleans.
Q. If you've ever gone away for the holidays, which was the best trip?
A. Grindelwald, Switzerland, and Lofer, Austria, were the most memorable. The skiing was incredible, the villages and views gorgeous and the food wonderful. In Lofer, we stayed at a B-and-B lodge where the owner served what he caught or hunted.
Q. What are your five favorite cities?
A. New Orleans, where I live. Also, Paris, Barcelona, St. Petersburg and Melbourne.
Q. Where have you traveled to that most reminded you of home?
A. Surprisingly, probably South Africa.
Q. Where would you like to go that you have never been to before?
