Greta Thunbergsays she’s never been drunk in her life

Swedish environmental activist Greta Thunberg has opened up about how her life as a 19-year-old girl has been impacted by fame.

她解释说，她“永远不会做任何愚蠢的事情”，反映出她不知道这是否仅仅是因为她是“那种人”，还是因为[她不]不想被“看到”。

"I guess it could be both," she resolved.

Despite being at the age where many of us have already sunk a good few shoulders of Glens in our time, Thunberg confirmed she has never gotten drunk in her whole 19 years of living.

She explained she worries people may try to get her drunk just to be able to say they were the first person to have managed it.

Thunberg also opened up about her fears surrounding flirting or dating.

"Yeah. If I come up to them, you’re more vulnerable. So you have people looking up to you, but you’re also much more vulnerable," she explained.

"It’s difficult because, in one way, I feel like I’m just an activist – we know how to organise a strike, how to talk to politicians," she continued. "But on the other hand, my position is very different [from other activists]. There are very few who have the experience of being a grassroots campaigner and also being followed by the paparazzi. Someone recently told me I am an influencer, but I don’t like that."

Her work as an environmental activist may have cost Thunberg a lot of her privacy and the ability to grow up and make mistakes like any normal teenager - having had security guards during one period because of the rape and death threats she's received on social media - however, Thunberg still retains an element of normality, walking home by herself, booking her own trains and where she stays and bringing her own food too.

Thunberg concluded: "But we’re not doing all this because wewantto. We’re doing this because it seems like you have to dosomething."
