When planning for my time in Brasov, Romania, I stumbled throughout a web site that was promoting a 10-day class the place you can study to fly a paraglider.
“How superior!” I believed. “I wish to try this.”
After a fast electronic mail and a close to hour-long Skype name with the trainer of the category, I dedicated to the endeavor earlier than I even left my short-term dwelling in Varna, Bulgaria. Now that my paragliding classes in Romania are over, I can inform you that signing up for this course has been among the finest issues I’ve ever executed in my 12+ years of bicycle journey.
Not solely did I get to fly a paraglider each in tandem and by myself, however I met some superior folks, noticed quite a few components of Romania, entered my first paragliding competitors, and realized a ability that I can use to fly paragliders virtually wherever on the planet.
Above are only a bunch of random photographs from my day-to-day educational paragliding classes within the hills exterior Brasov, Romania. Within the photographs with me are Robert (my teacher), Laurent (who’s from France, however has a software program improvement firm right here Romania), Mihai and Orelean.
