Thomas Wesley Pentz, better known as “Diplo,” once estimated that he takes 320 flights a year. Just next month, the D.J., songwriter, and producer will travel to New York, Amsterdam, Tampa, and Avondale, Arizona, to perform. After landing three Grammys and working with everyone from Madonna to Mark Ronson, Diplo has been experimenting with country music, a turn away from his electronic-dancehall start. His latest foray into new territory is more literal. On December 13, Diplo will team up with Insider Expeditions to spearhead a seven-day luxury cruise in Antarctica. I know, not what you expected!
With so much of his life spent at cruising altitude, Diplo has dialed in his travel routine. Here, he answers our questionnaire about what he packs, eats, and buys while traveling. —Jensen Davis
