Vanessa-Mae in China Daily on her Olympic ambitions

[Xanthippe]

Vanessa-Mae is featured in the China Daily in an article about her Olympic ambitions and training schedule, see Vanessa-Mae talking about her Olympic ambitions

The following comes from the article:

Vanessa-Mae has lived in the Swiss alpine resort Zermatt since 2009 and began training seriously this summer. Now she wakes up every day at 5 am and hits the cable car at 6:30. She practices till 1 pm before taking a break, when she can do a bit of violin playing.

In the afternoon she has physical training for an hour or two, then does video analysis, comparing herself to great skiers. Vanessa-Mae said she's going to train more when winter comes, and plans to train in South America next year.

The article too shows a wonderful photo of Vanessa-Mae playing at the opening gala at Mandarin Oriental in Las Vegas in 2009, wearing a fine red long dress and her face with heavy make-up.
