Hi Paul

In clip Lena7_02_03_format0.wmv (April 28th) Lena talks with a girl who seems interested in why she's barefoot. What do they talk about, what does the girl ask, what does Lena say?

I wonder...is it possible for you to interview (in English, or with a translation) the girls (e.g. Lena, etc.) about how they feel walking barefoot in the street, in public? How is it to them to feel the different textures and surfaces? To be seen in public without shoes, to get their soles dirty? To walk on gravel, dirt, hot pavement, etc?

Thanks!

Hi Paul,

I also would like to know, what Lena and the woman in the shop talkes about. Maybe we ca have a translation?

And i am also interested in little interviews with the girls (if possible in english), where thes talk about, how they feel walking barefoot in the city and in public and dirty places. And how they feel about the views of the other people in public places.

Thanks a lot :-)

Hi! It's Marina writing:

Unfortunately, the majority of our girls do not know English at all. So it is a problem to interview them in English.

As for the dialogue in the clip, here is a translation:

Shop-assistant (Sh-a): How can you walk barefoot! The asphalt is quite hot!
Lena: It is really hot and I like it! It is a pleasure to feel hot ground with your soles!
Sh-a: Hm... No, I think, it is not a pleasant feeling. The asphalt seems to be too hot for it. It would be harmful for me, I think.
Lena: Well, you can start not with the asphalt, but on the sand. Soon you'll got used. It is worth doing that!
Sh-a: Thanks. Good luck!

Dear Marina

Thanks a lot for providing the translation! Much appreciated. It's a wonderful conversation indeed, hope to have more interesting conversations like this one!

It's good to read you my friend! We always miss you in the Forum.

Could you please convince Paul to have the girls doing some extreme barefooting? It would be great to see them glasswalking and firewalking again, thanks!

Hi Marina:

And of course I must add that I would enjoy seeing more of your own barefoot adventures here, should you ever feel so inclined to share with us again!

Hi Marina

I too would justlike to say that whatever your reasons for no longer appearing I respect them, but if you were to ever reconsider you would make me the happiest man in the world. I miss your sets so much!
