Celebrity Travel: Go Away With Adam Rosante
Q. What is your guilty pleasure when you're on the road?
A. I'm not being cute here, but I don't have guilty pleasures. I have pleasures. Never deny yourself the things you love. All things in moderation and balance.
Q. What kind of research do you do before you go away on a trip?
A. I look at where to eat, drink and get outdoors. Whether it's as mellow as a hike or as amped up as a rock-climbing or rafting excursion, it's really important for me to get outside and explore. We just went to Seattle for the first time and trekked around Snoqualmie Falls, then had beers at this awesome little craft brewery called the Black Raven (in Redmond). One of the coolest things to me about the Pacific Northwest is that you can be in the middle of the city, drive only 30-minutes and be standing in the middle of a dense forest with cloud-scraping trees and mind-blowing waterfalls. You're looking at a half-day's drive minimum from New York City to get anywhere even remotely close to that.
Q. What is your worst vacation memory?
A. My brother getting carsick on a road trip down south. My parents were driving. He and I were crammed into the backseat with my sister when he, well, let's just say this wasn't the best vacation memory.
