Craig, I saw Freya's slide show in San Diego, the first USA stop, on Friday night. There was an hour of informal chatting beforehand. She was much more humble, and in some ways, more vulnerable, than I expected or had heard about her. But maybe my 2 1/2 years in Germany helped me understand the German psyche better. She is a fascinating and charismatic person, and I think she is doing the sport of sea kayaking a lot of good. Her slide show was actually one of the better ones I've seen. By any means, if you can see her slide show, I'd recommend going.
