Eva Longoria is what you might call a busybody—in a good way. The former Desperate Housewives actress is always on the move. From politics to producing, the 39-year-old has got quite a lot going on.

"Producing is my full time job right now so I've been dedicated all my time to it and my philanthropy is my second full time job… so I've been traveling and Skype has been my best friend," the star—who has just started a kickstarter campaign for her El Voto Hispano documentary—told E! News.

Her busy schedule and globetrotting ways leave little room for hitting the gym. Luckily, she's got a solution:

 "I'm a runner. I don't need a gym, I'll go run anywhere. I was in Australia, Budapest and Paris...In Australia and I went running around the botanical gardens and when I got to Paris I ran around the Eiffel tower," she shares. "And when I was in Budapest I ran around their little medieval section passing the castle. It's truly one of the best forms of exercising and the best thing to do while traveling because you get to sight-seeing and as I'm running I was really standing under the Eiffel tower at seven in the morning going ‘this is so cool!'"

Admit it: The treadmill seems kind of lame right about now, doesn't it? Well played, Eva.
