Unlike his alter ego Ragnar, Travis never wanted to be famous. He moved to the States when he was younger with just one goal in mind: to make money. After he was "discovered" by a modelling talent scout in Los Angeles, he even went to the agency with bare feet, not giving two hoots about whether he gets accepted or not.
I just want to be proud of what I do and unfortunately, in this business, if you do all right you sort of get recognized a bit, he confessed to The Star in March 2014. That is the least favourite (part) by far, for me. I just want to do the work and go home. I wish stuff never came out.
