Swimming world record holder Evgenia Chikunova in an interview with , she said that she lived in a hostel in St. Petersburg so as not to waste time on the way to the pool.
Chikunova will take part in the Russian Short Course Championships, which will be held in St. Petersburg from November 21 to 26.
— You said that in St. Petersburg you lived in an inn. For what?
– Yes, I live. Although now, after Kabardinka, when I arrived in St. Petersburg, I spent time with my family and my dog. The sicker I got. I live in a hostel because it’s a five minute walk from the pool. There is no better option. I don’t have a car, I don’t have a driver’s license. It takes an hour to get from my house by public transport, but if you constantly take a taxi you can go broke.
— You don’t want to get your license?
— I still can’t gather my thoughts and register. But to be honest, I’m afraid of driving.
— Renting a house is not your option?
“I want to live a few steps from the swimming pool, but it is very difficult to find an apartment in this area,” Chikunova said.
