Q. What
are some countries you've gotten to travel to for basketball or personal reasons?
"I
really like Australia, I've been there a few times. Just to be around the people
and the atmosphere is great. I'd like to go to Italy again and do some more sightseeing
in places like Rome and some of those parts. I was in Poland and got a pretty
good vibe there."

Q. What is your favorite place to go on vacation?
"I don't
have a favorite spot, but I enjoy seeing friends and have been out to California
a bunch of times. I wouldn't mind going on vacation. I really need to. But honestly,
if I get a week to myself, I usually need to stay at home and get stuff done.
That's probably boring, but I have a dog now. Sometimes it's nice to just sleep
in and not do anything."
Q. If you had to choose... On a beach, hiking
and camping out, or visiting a museum?
"Hiking and camping out. I'm a little
pale and don't tan very well. Sitting on a beach wouldn't go well. I'd have to
put a lot of sunscreen on. Hiking and camping is something I enjoy because it's
active."
Q. What are your favorite WNBA cities to visit?
"I
love Seattle. Downtown Seattle has everything. It's a neat city."
Q.
What is the best WNBA city to go out shopping? Any favorite favorite stores?
"Houston's
Galleria is the spot. They have everything. That and Seattle has great shopping."
Q.
What is the best WNBA city to dine out? Any favorite restaurants?
"Definitely
Seattle. They have a lot of different restaurants. Not the chain places, but they
have some great, original places. In L.A., I always get stuck in the Cheesecake
Factory, somehow."
