7 Inspirational Travel Quotes From Anthony Bourdain

We'll miss this always-inspiring and brilliant man. Jennifer Nied 2018-06-11

Getty Images Through his writing and television shows, Anthony Bourdain fearlessly explored the world through food and inspired fans to follow along. His career as a celebrity chef, travel television host and author captivated audiences and instilled envy the world over. In fact, he appeared to have it all. But the journey ended all too soon for Bourdain. While in Strasbourg, France, for an episode of CNN’s “Parts Unknown,” he died by suicide at the age of 61. The network confirmed his death, though we may never know the details of Bourdain’s life that led to this end.

Getty Images | Mike CoppolaThough Bourdain will no longer offer us new footprints to follow, we can continue learning from his signature wit and wisdom. Here, we remember his adventurous legacy with some of his best advice on travel.

1. Travel Far

“If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel—as far and as widely as possible,” he advised in his book “Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook.” “Sleep on floors if you have to.”

2. Find A Walkable Neighborhood

“If I have a good base of operations, It will be someplace I can wander from, someplace I can walk around in a neighborhood that I like,” he shared in an interview with Money. “I don’t want to be in a resort. This is something I avoid absolutely… I want to find a hotel in the center of things … or in a neighborhood that has charm and character. The sort of place that I can walk to a cafe or a hawkers center and sit down and, you know, feel the place.”

3. Experiment

“ithout experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund,” Bourdain wrote in “Medium Raw.”

4. Slow Down

“You can’t take it in, driving by stuff. That’s not satisfying,” Bourdain told Money. “Don’t be afraid to just sit and watch.”

5. Expect To Grow And Learn

In an interview with “Fine Dining Lovers, when asked how important it is for chefs to travel as much as possible, Bourdain said, “It’s the same with anybody else. I think you become a better person by travelling, and are more likely to empathise with other people.”

6. Be Willing To Experience The Bad In Pursuit Of The Good

“I’ve found that you’re not going to have the really great travel experiences if you’re not willing to experience the bad ones,” Bourdain told Business Insider. “If you don’t leave yourself open for things to happen to you, nothing really is going to happen to you, good or bad.”

7. Explore What’s Close To Home

“It’s also wildly exciting to be open to the unfamiliar, because it just might be delicious,” he shared with Cosmopolitan. “And I know not everyone can travel the world like I do for my TV show. But wherever you are, you can explore. One of the best things about this country is that it’s filled with people from somewhere else—you can travel the world without leaving your town.”

4 Ways To Get Help For Someone Who Might Be Suicidal

Disease & Illness This is a great resource for helping a friend or family member. CNN 2018-06-07

Adobe Fashion designer Kate Spade’s suicide spotlights the importance of recognizing the potential warning signs when someone intends to end their life. The attention is needed, especially now. When a high-profile person dies by suicide, the “celebrity-suicide effect” can lead to a rise in copycat deaths. In the four months after Robin William’s took his own life in 2014, there was a 10 percent increase — almost 2,000 additional suicides — recorded. There is already a rise in suicide rates in the US, making it the 10th leading cause of death in 2015, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Here Are Ways To Help If You Or Someone You Know Is At Risk:

1. By Phone

Call 1-800-273-8255 to reach the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. It provides free and confidential support 24 hours a day, seven days a week for people in suicidal crisis or distress. You can learn more about its services here, including its guide on what to do if you see suicidal language on social media. You can also call 1-800-273-8255 to talk to someone about how you can help a person in crisis.

2. By Text

Text HOME to 741741 to have a confidential text conversation with a trained crisis counselor from Crisis Text Line. Counselors are available 24/7. You can learn more about how their texting service works here.

3. By Online Chat

For online chat, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline provides a confidential chat window, with counselors available 24/7. Boys Town also provides counselors for youth-specific online chat at this link. It is available every Monday through Friday between 6 p.m. and midnight in the Central time zone.

4. In Spanish

For crisis support in Spanish, call 1-888-628-9454. For support outside of the US, a worldwide directory of resources and international hotlines is provided by the International Association for Suicide Prevention. You can also turn to Befrienders Worldwide. Another way to help is by supporting the nonprofits that provide suicide counseling, prevention and education. Volunteers are needed, and some train to become counselors. Online donations for some of these organizations can be made by clicking the button above. Written by Christopher Dawson for CNN.
