Lukas Rose recently returned from a trip to Iraq to meet parkour practitioners. He’s from the Siegen, Germany but has spent much of his life in other countries.
We talk about about Iraqs’ parkour communities and their first meeting, how travel influences us, liquid modernity, the beautiful town of Siegen and making a living with parkour as an athlete.
Event with the Iraqi parkour communities, their first time meeting:
