About Quote by Douglas Coupland

“My question about luging is, How do you get into the luge community to begin with? Is it one day like, 'Mom, Dad, I really want to luge.' And your parents are like: 'O.K., I'll quit my job. We'll move to an Alpine community.'” quote by Douglas Coupland — Download Open image
