k.d. lang knows a thing or two about travel. She's been making her way around the world touring in support of her new album, Watershed, which brings her to Clearwater, Florida, tonight, and will have taken her from Glasgow, Scotland, through Sydney, Australia, to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, in her native Canada, before winding down this summer.

The spring issue of Out Traveler magazine features an interview with the well-traveled songstress, in which she shares a few travel secrets (keep it down to just one bag) and favorite spots from around the world, as well as the impact her travels have had on her music-making. A she tells Out Traveler's Randy B. Hecht:

I love to hear the soundtrack that that particular location or environment conjures. We were in Tahiti about a year ago, and we went to this little island ... there was a little French restaurant there playing café music, and it was very bass- and drum-heavy. It really inspired me, and it was while I was writing my record and working on my record. Things like that always happen.
