“For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return.” – Leonardo Da Vinci

And he is right, flying was amazing. It was an experience that cannot be described by words. Imagine your life, literally hanging by several ropes and a piece of fabric.

The beginning was terrifying, I had to run off the hill and I thought I could — because what’s so frightening about running off a hill? My first attempt was a flop, my legs didn’t trust that we will take off and I failed to jump. My second attempt was a little bit better and we managed to take flight. This experience was literally breathtaking. I was gasping for air and only stopped to breathe like a normal person when I realized that I was actually gliding through air.

That was living life on the edge.
