Luan Oliveira: Self

Quotes 

• Luan Oliveira : I was raised by my grandparents, not my parents. They helped me a lot. Incentivized me since the beginning and they motivated me to stay on this journey.

• Luan Oliveira : I used to live in the middle of nowhere in Brazil, like so gnarly.

  Cesar : He's from the hood!

  Luan Oliveira : Next to the prison and shit. Like in the days my friends would be like, oh can I stay at your house? Yeah sure, but I live in the ghetto. You know? When they get there like, damn.

  Cesar : The ghetto in the ghetto.

  Luan Oliveira : Yeah. Not anymore, though. Thank God. I've seen so many people die and shit. Yeah, like I never tell that. Never tell nobody that. The Cesar changed my life! Helped me a lot. He used to give me like, food every month for like three years. Every month for my grandma and shit. It was so sick. Helped me a lot. It if wasn't skateboarding I don't know what the hell I'd be doing right now. Probably selling drugs or probably even be dead. Probably dead right now. So I gotta thank every minute of everything. Everything.
