Emma Roberts on New Orleans and Her Vintage Books Obsession

Author: Condé Nast Traveler October 17, 2024 Duration: 22:40
Emma Roberts has acted in TV thrillers like American Horror Story and Scream Queens, as well as movies including We Are the Millers, Valentines Day, and Hotel for Dogs. She also happens to be both an avid traveler and the founder of online reading community Belletrist. Lale chats with the actor about the books she likes to travel with (and where she likes to buy them), her love of train travel, and one of her all-time favorite cities: New Orleans.

There’s a whole world of travel stories that often go unheard, and Women Who Travel | Condé Nast Traveler brings them to the forefront. Guided by editor Lale Arikoglu, this podcast moves beyond typical guides and itineraries to explore the personal, sometimes complicated, realities of navigating the globe. You’ll hear conversations with a wide range of female-identifying travelers, each episode uncovering specific, vivid tales-whether that’s the quiet challenge of going off-grid in Denmark or the profound independence found in solo journeys across multiple countries. Lale weaves in her own global experiences and insights from the Condé Nast Traveler team, creating a space that feels like an honest chat with well-traveled friends. It’s about the connections made, the unexpected hurdles overcome, and the unique perspectives women carry with them. By focusing on these narratives, the series naturally expands what travel means, making it an essential listen for anyone curious about the deeper layers of culture, place, and personal discovery. Tune in for a fresh, grounded take on adventure.
