What it's like to be an Olympic athlete
It just kind of turned out that this is more fun than working. Living in Europe is a good time, and it was worth it to me to keep going and try to win that medal. The most surprising thing to me is that I've lived in Serbia and Russia, countries that Americans don't usually go to
-in Serbia they burned down the American embassy when I was living there, there's a long history with Russia
-but the biggest surprise is wherever you go around the world, people are the same. We have the same conversations, everybody wants to take care of their family, be happy
-it's just the same.
