If I think that I'm getting afraid to be old then I can't live. SHE LAUGHS It is just good to be in better condition than I was as a 40-year-old. When I go to the skate park and there are those scooter kids, they always come to me and say, "Oh, we have read about you, seen films about you. "Cool to meet you." I have learned to be a more social person. It was only going cruising at the beginning but then skateboarding came into my life, and it is pure fun. I have begun to see my city in totally different ways. "Oh, that would be a nice place someday to skateboard there." I mean, it looks cool when people skate, but when you skate for the first time it's really scary. So Lena was a good teacher, like, recognizing the fear and then doing small steps and doing it together and encourage and helping each other. So it was, yeah, good. On my first trip I had some skateboards and other things with me, and they were so welcome, and now we are planning to build a new skate park in Uganda.
My message with skateboarding - don't think what other people think. And you have to take your life in your hands. This is my last work, and it was No Fear, a tribute to all Ugandan people, because they taught me not to be afraid of snakes, and then that snake is smiling. There will be one day I don't do these things, but the day when some doctor will say to me that, "Lena, forget those hobbies, begin Nordic walking," then my life is over! "We ride till we die." That's my motto.
Perfect. I like that. Yeah. And then we have to continue. Yeah. Lovely weather. .
