Koh Lanta – Marine, who was forced to resign for medical reasons : “I regret that I have called the doctor so early” – Gala

sadness

First eliminated from Koh Lanta Fiji, the Marine had to leave the adventure, with a bit of fatigue. Disappointed, the young woman confides.

In what conditions did you leave the adventure, and what have you felt ?

In fact I have done a sunstroke in the first few hours after arrival. This was followed by a big blow of fatigue, and I had to leave the adventure medical decision, after only three days. Nothing to talk about that today, it is very difficult. I did not imagine joining Koh Lanta, it would be so short.

After the first reward challenge, we saw you sitting alone on the beach, obviously already exhausted… That is what you tell yourself at that moment ?

I’m not really worried. I say to myself : ‘Ok, I’m in Koh Lanta, it is hard and it is normal.’ I know my body, and I know that I can take time to recover, I need a time of adaptation. But I tell myself that it will get better past the first few days.

When you announce that you must leave the adventure because of your state of physical fatigue, is this you understand this decision ?

In the beginning the doctor to me has just announced that he was going to have to do reviews, and I have not been new for several hours. Then, it is Denis Brogniart, who came to tell me that I had to leave Koh Lanta. I did not immediately accepted the decision, as time had passed and I already felt much better. It has been difficult to accept. But in the end, we say that the doctor knows what he’s doing, it better not take risk.

You are a nurse in life, is what it has been all the more hard?

Yes, it is safe. I know particularly well as my body, how it works and how it fits. When I had my shot fatigue I thought of plenty of things that could make me get better… But you need to know to trust the doctor, he knows his job, he is there for that.

Do you have any regrets ?

No, because I think that it was important that I accept this decision. And at the same time, I regret a little to have called the doctor so early, maybe I would have had to wait to feel better… And at the same time, in these moments, it is necessary to upgrade their health first, even if it is difficult.

What an impression you have made these three days in Koh Lanta ?

Honestly, I only keep good memories. The Islands of Fiji, it is a place really beautiful. I would love to have the opportunity to return. The best memories, especially the victories in the tests, with the Yellow team. It really is a unique feeling, a feeling of pride is incredible. And even if it was very short, in three days we learn when even the other candidates and it is super.

With what candidate you are, the better course ?

With Andrew and Tiffany. Andrew, we were together on the boat, it is the candidate who is the youngest of the adventure and I knew I considered a little brother. It is very much supported, it is spontaneous and human, the qualities that I appreciate in someone. And then Tiffany, we approached a little after, it is similar in many ways, it was a bit “the two blondes” of the adventure (laughs) ! It has very quickly developed a nice complicity.

According to you, who has the qualities to go far in the adventure ?

Compared to the physical skills and strategic, I immediately considered Roman, in the Red, as a formidable opponent. It will have to be wary of him. In yellow, I think that Andrew has very good qualities as : a strong physical and a mental fire.

From the first episode, we see that the Reds are more organised, and most strategists, that the Yolks, which are a little messy… You have felt it ?

With the Yellow one is more fiery, we work on the basis of benefit to instinct, feeling. While Red may be more posed and reflect… But at the same time, we have won the first two races so this temperament was not served. After it is sure that he will have to stay focused and do not scatter if the buffs want to win the following tests.

Have you met with May, the new candidate who joins the adventure after your departure ? What message do you want to send him ?

No I didn’t cross, but I wish him much happiness. I wish him to live the adventure that I’ve not been able to live. I hope that she will be able to integrate quickly, because this is probably not easy to arrive three days after all the world. My only advice is that she is living his adventure to the bottom !
