It ends in the worst place. This Tuesday, Olga was eliminated at the gates of the final Koh-Lanta By members of the tribe that have been reunited. By two members of this team more precisely: Amber and Francois. Despite her agreement concluded last week with Jean Charles and Geraldine, the Kazakh candidate did not consult with her comrades to bring down one of their opponents. “It was just a pact to protect ourselves a little bit,” she justifies 20 minutes.
It’s hard for you to speak up after you’ve been excluded. Are you in shock?
I am very disappointed because of Koh-Lanta It was a very difficult adventure and I was eliminated at the gates of the final, so it was a real disappointment. Meanwhile, I am not surprised that Amber and François could only vote against me. I was disarmed, I did my best to vote against Amber but knew I wasn’t going to be company.
Exactly, why didn’t you consult Jean Charles or Geraldine?
Knowing them, I knew they wouldn’t vote against Amber. They are very tight with it. Even if I tried to convince them, I don’t think that was possible. But it is true that I did not.
In the previous episode, you made a pact to eliminate Nicholas. So it wasn’t a real alliance?
It’s true that we really love each other with Geraldine and Jean Charles. The convention from the last episode served us well both in the episode with Nicola and in the episode you just watched. I didn’t have any real alliance with them but I had an agreement to protect myself for a bit.
After Yannick and Anne Sophie were eliminated, do you think your fate was sealed?
I thought my adventure was inevitable after Alexandra and Colin were liquidated. I saw my days pass when they left. I am amazed that I got to where I got. It has saved my skin from the moment Anne-Sophie left. It was very difficult. I am an emotional person, I get attached to people quickly, especially in Koh-Lanta Where we are looking for comfort is where we need to trust someone because it is hard at all. Every time I trust someone, they leave. Each exclusion was an ordeal and an emotional lift.
The destinies associated with France give you several extra days…
Yes, of course. When I chose the colored ball, I told myself that the best solution for me was to fall for François. And I’m lucky, I fall for it! I appreciate him in the game, I know he is a strong person, he has a lot of human and athletic qualities, so I also want to share the adventure with him. After we won the immunity trial, I fixed the next few days in my head. When we get rid of Maxime and Louana, I feel a little relieved and less worried about the future. Strategically, it was ideal to fall for François.
However, François votes against you and justifies this by your lack of affinity. Did the interconnected fate not bring you closer together?
François is a wonderful adventurer who knows how to play. As for me, that’s just my opinion, he loves me but considers me a competitor. He knows that I have a lot of character, that I have a lot of strength and that I am as pure and tough as him. Maybe he thinks I’m an item to get rid of because I could have stuck around in the posts for so long (laughs). Moreover, it is a strategy game, he is not trying to get attached to me. But I also don’t make friends at the gates of the final. We love each other but no friendly affinity is created.
Another “highlight” of the episode is when you jump for joy until you hurt yourself. what happened ?
Oh my God, but what a horror (laughs)! The test I am doing is very difficult, I have come to my end, I am very tired. By the time I’m able to move on, it’s almost as if I’ve made it to the posts! I lose focus, don’t know where to step, fall and twist my ankle. It’s the hardest time because I tell myself I haven’t gotten that far to sprain my ankle and not get back into the competition.
Can you explain to us what happened next from the cameras?
I had tests done, they did a CT scan to see if everything was ok. I am so worried, I find myself in the hospital waiting for the results. I have to sleep there, I pray that everything goes well and that they come in the morning to tell me that nothing is broken and everything is fine. In my head, survival. Today, everything is going well after a bit of rehabilitation.
You are eliminated at the gates of guidance. Is this additional frustration?
I get frustrated but I’m still so happy it got this far, it was so unexpected for me, it’s really huge (laughs). I get hurt, I come back, I don’t want to give up and I get eliminated. That’s why I’m in tears, I knew I could go further. But the course is beautiful.
Wasn’t it difficult to live with being a target to be eliminated since reunification?
I am often told that I cry a lot, and never control my feelings. I’ve always been true to my feelings, so I cried a lot! I keep fond memories of her and made so many friends like Alexandra, Colin and Anne Sophie… There are so many beautiful things in all of this, I would have never imagined it Koh-Lanta It will be a great adventure. It’s hard but I don’t regret, it’s the best experience of my life.
