As a professional swimmer Luke Camilleri Cuschieri has little time for social life. His swimming regime is rigid; it consists of long hours of training, including time spent on other sports-related activities, proper diet, and lots of focus and determination.

Luke's objective, nevertheless, is long-term; he wants to become a professional swimmer, obtain scholarship from a foreign university and, if swimming as profession doesn't provide as well, his alternative would be to study physiotherapy, sports psychology or even something not necessarily related to sports.

Watch Matthew Cassar's interview with Luke, find out what inspires the young swimmer and why he has chosen a sports career despite his parents concerns about its financial viability.
