Canadians are awesome.

You cannot just boil down what it is to be Latino in one thing.

I don't understand people who travel purely gastronomically, who book a Michelin-starred restaurant three months in advance and suddenly find themselves in Copenhagen or Barcelona with a zeitgeist...

I like to listen to the blues and some classical.

I love British folk music, but I'm not obsessed with it. I love the Celtic stuff, and Enya is a favorite, but that's more electronic.

I'm into clothes, but in a way that's related to wanting to walk into a film noir movie. You know, I love to go to vintage stores, but mostly it's stuff that I don't have anywhere to wear... I don't...

I guess I feel that I was following my instincts, and at the same time being guided by the best. I became totally intrigued with Louisiana - the people, the food. It is a part of my life. Everything...

I've got tonnes of aboriginal and Native American art, but I'd like even more.

I like America, and I think probably the American people like me.

I'm not saying that people have to listen to rock music. It's a great, cool thing and it can really be liberating for a lot of people but, hey, so can Charles Dickens so I'm not going to judge.

I have listened to different kinds of music since I was young.

I love our shared island, our shared Ireland and its core decency. I love it for its imagination and its celebration of the endless possibilities for our people.

If I could, I'd sing old French songs or American folk music, but I sure as hell can't do it as well as Mississippi John Hurt - no way in hell am I getting near that!

I'd love to do some collaborations or music with Latin artists and in Latin America - we're working on it! I just really love Latin America and the language, culture, foods, people, and it's a place I...

I took Japanese in high school. I'm Chinese, though, and I just fell in love with the language and the culture.

I think Jews are the smartest people in the world.

I've been fascinated with Maori culture since I was a kid.

I studied literature and Italian at Yale. I wrote my thesis about Italo Svevo, one of my heroes.

Gray means being open-minded. I always look at the world that way; I'm able to hear both sides of an argument. I don't listen to opera, but I don't think it's good or bad; it's just its own thing. I...

You went to your first Broadway play or musical at some point, right? Come to opera.

If something interesting comes up, I would love to do something in Bangla in future, especially since I can speak Bangali fluently.

I used to watch a lot of Malayalam films in the past.

The British community is very active and very generous in many different areas. I can only have high praise for them.

I love travelling. For me, it is a very enriching experience. We get to learn new things, meet new people from different spheres of life and cultures. It gives us an understanding of the broader...

I used to run a Japanese review website way back in the day, around about 2003, 2004. It was just my own little personal thing, because I was just obsessed with Japanese cinema.

I like to read, walk, cook, and travel to cities. We live in the country, so we miss museums and the bustle of city life.

Through my work and travels I have been lucky enough to have been exposed to various eclectic cuisine running the gamut from small local cafes to iconic five-star restaurants.

I am still adapting to London life, but England was always a country that 'interested me.'

I want to go to Denmark and Scandinavia. We've been inundated with their telly recently, and I've never been to any of those countries. I really want to get to know the people. I quite fancy living...

Half my fan mail comes from Japan.
