In 1999, I had a dream where I was flying over a green meadow. When I woke up and still felt the sensation of taking off, I spontaneously signed up for a paragliding taster day. The first time I tried to take off, I knew exactly what to expect. I took off and had exactly the same feeling as in my dream. Since then, I have been able to continue living this dream. After my training in 2000, I spent a year traveling around the world with a paraglider before settling in Chile for another ten years. Among other things, I was able to help set up and manage one of the largest flight centers there and later set up my own flight school and tandem company. Nevertheless, I was drawn back to Europe after more than ten years. Now I enjoy passing on my knowledge and experience.
