Film: how you want it, where you want it, when you want it

Backpacker Sienna Miller

04 February 2010:


Sienna Miller is going to go backpacking.

The 'Hippie Hippie Shake' actress - who is one of the most photographed women on the planet - is planning a low-key trip around the world and intends to stay in hostels rather than the luxurious hotels she is used to.

Sienna said: "I'm going to travel at some point - proper pikey-style with a backpack and three-quid-a-night hostels. It's a good thing to do at this point in my life."

Sienna - who recently returned from a sun-drenched break in Barbados with her reconciled lover Jude Law - believes the experience will be good for her, because it will allow her to escape the pressures of acting.

She said: "You get to a point where you're living to work, not working to live. I want to try and enjoy the benefits of what I've worked so hard to achieve. I want to try and be a little more organised, it gives you something to look forward to if you commit to things. I've never been very good at committing."

However, it was her jet-setting acting career that gave Sienna, 28, her passion for travel.

She added to Stylist magazine: "I've been travelling so much with work and living in different places and I love that side of my life. But being at home and being domestic makes me happy. I have side to me that can be quite nurturing. But then I have a more adventurous side."
