Alexei Yagudin:
9 years have passed, since he left the sport, but is still called the most brilliant and talented skater.
Alexei Yagudin recently celebrated its thirty-first birthday.
MK-Boulevard "met with on the birthday, and learned how he lives "in the civilian world."
Q-Very often people who experience thirty years abroad, get depressed, thinking that old age begins. You are greeted as the new decade?
A-Indeed, some sense of inner emptiness I had an unpleasant feel. But this year everything was absolutely normal. No discomfort.
Q-What age on your passport would make you scared?
A-I do not know ...Perhaps the worst is behind us all: I'm scared to turn 29 and 30 years. (Laughs.) I think that now something similar is experienced in the transition year from 39 to 40 years. We'll see.
Q-This year you're out to celebrate your birthday?
A-Usually, I did not get to celebrate, because every time a birthday fell, it was onto the next city, to the next round. And this year, I was lucky: four days appeared off. Tanya Totmianina (common law wife Yagudin. - "IBC") has made me a present: a small vacation in Dubai. The sun, the ocean - very cool.
Q-And what kind of vacation you do prefer: quiet on the beach or to sightseeing like a madman?
A-In most cases - sightseeing like a madman. (Laughs.) And when I was a somewhat younger man, by contrast, preferred to spend time at the beach. I do not know why. Though, I thought I should gravitate to an active pastime. Now, it's time for me to make up for it. A year ago, Tanya and I flew to Rome for four days. So to the hotel we came only to sleep and the rest of the time are constantly wandering around the city. Soon, going to Venice to look around. After the New Year we went to Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, and another island in Malaysia - Passive holiday did not happen.
Q-Are you taking your daughter?
A-No. Did not want to take her, because the doctor did not recommend it. Especially, since we basically have a rest a week or two, and the child needed more time to acclimatize. And now even the four-day fly. Why torture the child? She no longer get tired from flights. Therefore, Elizabeth is in St. Petersburg with my mother, and my grandmother.
(And we with Tatyana them come.)? We're constantly on tour and we can not give her daughter as long as my grandmother.
Q-Lisa is 1 and a half years. Probably every day you are with her is all the more interesting and fun?
A-Of course. Tanya and I take every opportunity to go to St. Petersburg, because I do not want to miss no opportunity to communicate with our daughter. I will honestly say that after the birth of Elizabeth, I have new, inexpressible emotions. I want to give her all the best. Now my daughter has begun to make sounds similar to words. And it's incredibly exhilarating and touching. We live for the sake of our daughter, because reaching for some other career will never be compared with being in your child's life.
