I wanted to\u00a0inspire those who\u00a0might not understand \u2013 or have forgotten \u2013 the importance of travel, the happiness it brings and how it\u00a0can change your world. We live on a beautiful planet, so we should get out there and see it.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Have you visited all the places featured in the book?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>PS<\/em>: I&#8217;ve probably been to 80% of the destinations in the book. I&#8217;m always mixing up my travels with places I love to return to with those I&#8217;ve been longing to see.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Where would you like to travel next?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>PS<\/em>: I&#8217;ve never been to New Zealand, so it&#8217;s been on my shortlist forever.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>4. It took you to eight years to write the book? Did you ever feel disheartened or want to give up?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>PS<\/em>: A lot happened during those eight years! I had a contract to write it, but as with any book, there is never a guarantee that it will sell. However, I continued because I love to travel. The process was daunting at first, but once I started, it became less overwhelming.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8731\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131.jpg\" alt=\"Patricia-Schultz\" width=\"1698\" height=\"1131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131.jpg 1698w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-UGC-1698x1131-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1698px) 100vw, 1698px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>5. The founder and CEO of Barnes &amp; Nobel told you the book would never sell &#8211; but you have now sold well over 3 million copies, plus 25 translations around the world. Were you worried when you first heard his opinion?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S<\/em>: He felt that the word &#8216;die&#8217; should not appear in the title without understanding that the book is very much about living life to its fullest. By the time I was aware of his comments, the book had already landed on the New York Times Best Seller list where it stayed for more than a year. The moral of this story? Always follow your heart and take criticism with a grain (or pound)\u00a0of salt!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>6. What do you hope to achieve with this book?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S<\/em>: I hope to inspire more people to travel and more often. It&#8217;s a fascinating, diverse and beautiful world, and much of what stops us is of our own making. You won&#8217;t know what awaits until you get out there and explore.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>7. Where did you last travel to?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S<\/em>: I just returned from a remarkable three-week journey around the Balkan nations, which has stunning scenery, lovely people and great food. Its ancient and complex history goes back way beyond Josip Tito, former President\u00a0of Yugoslavia\u00a0and the Ottomans to Alexander the Great.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8730\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131.jpg\" alt=\"Patricia-Schultz\" width=\"1698\" height=\"1131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131.jpg 1698w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Patricia-Schultz-travel-shot-UGC-1698x1131-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1698px) 100vw, 1698px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>8. Tell us something about you that no one knows about?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S<\/em>: I hate to fly. Obviously, it hasn&#8217;t stopped me, but the very thought of turbulence has me reaching for the hand of the stranger sitting next to me.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>9. How did you find a Trafalgar trip? How did it differ from your other trips?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S<\/em>: I was extremely impressed with how professionally and smoothly\u00a0everything\u00a0was run as it takes a lot of work to organise of that scale and make it look so effortless! Our Travel Director was a perfect blend of knowledge, enthusiasm, and fun and the restaurants\u00a0and hotels were wonderful. It was an exciting itinerary, which allowed us free time to explore. The &#8216;Be My Guest&#8217; event experience on our last evening was the perfect way to end such a special trip.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>10. If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to and where?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>P.S:<\/em> I used to live in Florence, Italy and would endlessly wander the palazzo-lined piazzas and cobble back streets, imagining life in the Renaissance when Florence was considered the most important city in the world, the centre of the universe. I&#8217;d love to come back as a Medici and sponsor the great master artists of that time.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>11.
