The French Alps 11 months ago

I did it when I was skiing! Except it wasn’t windy enough for me to have my skis on, so I literally ran off a mountain. So exhilarating! Loved it!



I think I'm doing this next week... in hawaii 16 months ago

I’m debating on whether or not I can afford this, but it seems like such a worthwhile way to spend a couple hundred bucks… Hawaii will be amazing even if I don’t do it, but oh to fly, to feel so free. It seems I’ve been wanting it all my life.

I was always that silly kid who hung out on the very edge of the school grounds staring at the fence for every recess. Some things are just built in I guess.



I learned how, but the weather blew it (literally) before I got to do it! 17 months ago

I went to an adventure sports resort in England a few years ago to learn to paraglide. The day they taught us how to do it was so beautiful, and it was right on the Irish Sea, but unfortunately there were lots of “thermals” that day (the big, puffy clouds that kept floating by were a pretty good sign), and just before I got strapped in to take my turn jumping off the side of that mountain, the wind shifted like crazy, and we had to stop. I was so close to getting to do this! That was 8 1/2 years ago, though. It’s time for me to do this at last!
