OLT What does a holiday mean to you
Brad Pitt
I believe holidays are of two kinds. You may want to go to a place and live it up or you may go somewhere and just laze around. An ideal holiday for me is a mix of both.

OLT And that could be anywhere
Brad Pitt
Oh yes Undoubtedly. Though, it helps if the view from your room makes you want to go out and see more of the beauty rather than just lie in bed.

OLT What do you enjoy most on holidays
Brad Pitt
Depends on where I am. If I am on a holiday to explore, I will not leave any museum, park or cultural hub un-visited. But if I am on a chill-out vacation, I will hardly get out of one placeand perhaps order room service and watch a movie marathon. By and large, it is mostly spending quality time with either myself or those with me. Speaking generally, I am an outdoors person and love treks and rock-climbing.

OLT Favourite holiday pastime
Brad Pitt
I love exploring a place on foot. So if I go to the hills, I am always trekking the slopes. Even in London, I spend my days exploring the city, mostly by foot, but also by
the tube, boat, buses and the train. I have come across some amazing street musicians this way.

OLT What do you splurge on while on holiday
Brad Pitt
I think it will be bikes. I hope it doesnt sound too materialistic when I confess I have bikes in most places I visit. If Im there three months, four months, five months, it does make sense because I like to get around on a bike. Its just enough time for someone to go Hey, isnt that...

OLT Some favourite destinations...
Brad Pitt
Europe is fantastic, especially in the winter. I love the entire south of France, especially Marseilles. The seafood is great and I end up going over the top with the bouillabaisse fish stew. In Nice, I strongly recommend the Matisse museum, the Russian Cathedral and Nices old town, Vieux Nice, where youll find the Cours Saleya, a joyous, thriving market square famous for its flower market. I also love Las Ventanas, Mexico. It is a very peaceful and languid place. While we were filming Alejandro Gonzlez Irritus Babel, the sights and sounds of Morocco also had a profound impact on me. It is a dreamy country.

OLT And destinations on your wishlist...
Brad Pitt
Id love to travel to and explore the Himalaya in India. In fact, I would love to explore all of India. I have seen bits of Rajasthan and Goa. I would love to explore the northeastern parts.
