Matthew McConaughey in motion | The Week

Matthew McConaughey is still a rambling man, says Neal Pollack in _Men’s Journal._ The 39-year-old actor is now a father, but any chance he gets, he leaves his Malibu home and hits the road

in his recreational vehicle to explore the country, meet people, and just clear his head. “My thoughts are better when I’m on the road,” he says. “I’m more creative.” For McConaughey, one RV

isn’t enough: He dreams of the day when he can have a fleet of eight or nine Airstreams and drive them with his friends in a caravan and park them all in one place—“like a corral.” But for

now, he considers his RV an extension of himself that lets him fully function while staying mobile—sometimes with his girlfriend and their toddler son in tow. “With technology today, I can

communicate just as well from the Airstream, run everything right there. And I can get to anyone at anytime. If I need to meet someone—I’ve done this before—‘Well, I’m going east coming up

here out of Idaho. I’ll be in Missoula in about five hours. Why don’t you fly up to Missoula, I’ll pick you up, we’ll drive east from there, we’ll do our thing on the road, and I’ll drop you

off at the next airport?’ It works like a charm.” A free daily email with the biggest news stories of the day – and the best features from TheWeek.com SUBSCRIBE TO THE WEEK Escape your echo
