“Yeah, I think there are a lot of things about Cleveland that I miss. Los Angeles is a funny place to live.”

“I'd never stop traveling, and I love bringing my family along with me. My children have points of reference everywhere, friends from Milan to Los Angeles. I think it's really fun for them.”
