I met Marc on one of many train trips in Ukraine. He is a reporter for 20 Minutes in the french speaking region of Suisse.
When he found out I could speak french, I am Vietnamese, I like soccer, I live in Suisse, etc, he asked if he could write an article about me.
I said 'Oui'
We arranged to meet outside the stadium in Kharkiv the next day. We went to a beer garden and he interviewed me. I was nervous.
At one point, he asked me how many matches I have attended. I was not sure.
He asked me '1000?'
I said 'more'
He asked again '2000?'
I said 'no, less'
so he said 'ok, let's say 1500'
I said 'that sounds good to me'
I felt like a soccer player who said he scored 1000 goals but no one could verify this.
Later in the interview, Marc asked me how old I am. I wanted to say 24 but then I thought this would not be credible. a 24 year old who has seen 1500 games. so I had to tell him the truth.
how old am I?
here is the article
