In the latest of our occasional series on the travel habits of celebrities, actor Jamie Parker talks searching for wild dolphins in the Maldives, insect snacks and how a Spanish holiday when he was young almost went wrong...
Exotic tastes: Actor Jamie Parker is a fan of faraway dreamy destinations
Most memorable destination?
The Maldives. A guiltily expensive paradise â€" but worth every penny.
Three best things to do there?
Eat seared tuna steak, go in search of wild dolphins and, for my third favourite thing, no comment.
Money no object, where would you have dinner?
Something cheap, simple and big. I like Monoloco in Petersfield, Hampshire, and Little Dorrit in London’s Borough Market. Everything’s delicious, healthy and inexpensive.
In which country do you feel most at home?
The United Kingdom. New Zealand comes a close second.
Strangest dish you've tasted on your travels?
Japanese gold leaf plum, wrapped in its own jelly with four dead baby bees lying on top. A chocolate-covered scorpion was pretty weird, too.
Who is your ideal travel companion?
My wife and child.
Idyllic: The Maldives may be expensive but well worth it, Jamie says
Your earliest travel memory?
Nearly drowning in a swimming pool in Spain aged four.
Can you recommend a holiday read?
Aldous Huxley’s collected essays â€" especially the one about what to read on holiday.
Jamie stars in The Globe’s production of Henry V. Go to www.shakespearesglobe.com.
