Learning to drive is a scary thing for a parent. I had to basically lie to get the keys when I was a kid.

I love adventure, so I'm excited to be working on something new and making the transition from reality show contestant to host.

Who knows, I have always lived one day at a time. Probably more adventure and excitement.

I have been able to travel all over the country and see many places that I probably never would have visited. I have also participated in many charity events for worthy causes.

I'm a kid from Boston.

We dominated Survivor - there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That's the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.

I always thought I would have boys, but as a father, when your kids are born and they're healthy and happy, that's the most important thing.

Things have slowed down considerably since the new series has started airing and I am currently looking for work. It has been a nice year-long vacation nonetheless.
