Julie Blakstad and Ada Hegerberg: A Catch-Up on and off the Pitch
Ada: Hey Julie! It’s been ages since we last had a proper chat. How are things with you?
Julie: Hey Ada! I’m doing great, thanks! It’s been a whirlwind, honestly. How about you?
Ada: Same here. You know how it is—football life never really slows down. How’s everything going with Manchester City? Settled in well?
Julie: Oh, absolutely! The team is fantastic, and the energy here is just incredible. Manchester is growing on me, little by little. Plus, I can’t complain about the football culture here.
Ada: That’s awesome to hear! I remember my first few months in Lyon, trying to find my way around the city and get used to the locker room dynamics. Speaking of which, how’re the team vibes over there?
Julie: Honestly, it’s like a big family. Everyone’s so welcoming, and there’s a real sense of camaraderie. We push each other hard in training but know how to relax and have fun off the pitch too. Do you find it the same in Lyon?
Ada: Totally! It’s that balance that really makes the difference, having teammates who can become your close friends. Those post-match dinners or coffee dates are the best, right? Also, tell me, have you picked up any British habits yet?
Julie: Haha, I might be guilty of having one too many cups of tea now. And I’ve started calling French fries “chips,” much to the amusement of my friends back home. What about you? Any new hobbies?
Ada: Well, I’ve actually started exploring cooking. It’s therapeutic after those intense training sessions and matches. I’ve been experimenting with some French cuisine—talk about stepping up the challenge!
Julie: That sounds so cool! You’ll have to share some recipes. I’ve been dabbling in photography during my downtime. Capturing moments around the city has been a fun way to explore and connect with my surroundings.
Ada: Wow, I love that! Photography’s such a creative outlet. Maybe one day we should combine our talents—I’ll cook, you photograph, and we’ll make a day of it!
Julie: Deal! That sounds like an epic plan. But first, we’ve got some matches to conquer. Let’s both keep shining on the pitch, and we’ll make that culinary-photoshoot day happen.
Ada: Absolutely, Julie! Keep smashing it out there, and let’s catch up again soon. Take care!
Julie: You too, Ada! Talk soon, and best of luck with everything. Cheers!
