Going Places

Tell us about your work
I’m a freelance personal trainer. I go where I’m needed. There’s a space that I rent for teaching lessons and I sometimes go to clients’ houses as well. 

How did you get into longboarding and was it something that you learnt recently?
I decided to learn new skills because I was bored since we can’t travel at the moment. I’ve only been longboarding for three months. I chose to longboard because in my opinion, it’s not as dangerous as skateboarding. It’s bigger, wider and easier to balance so I’m not going to break any bones. 

Do you usually longboard to work?
I longboard everywhere, even if it’s just for three minutes—because it’s practice. Even if I don’t feel like it, I practise. 

How would you describe your fashion style?
I like shoes to be my statement piece. The rest of my wardrobe is complementary to my shoes. I choose my shoes before the rest of my outfit. 

Do you have a large collection of shoes at home?
I would say it’s quite big. When I started collecting shoes, it was when I watched The Avengers: Endgame. I wanted shoes in all the colours of the gems on the Infinity Gauntlet and I started hunting for shoes then. 

Is there a particular brand of shoes that you like?
I guess I like Nike Jordans. Jordans are cool shoes. They’re easy to skate in too. 

Any advice to share?
Just live life.
