A little taste of freedom.



30 years, 360 months, 10950 days, 262800 hours, 15768000 seconds and countless number of breathes. Decided to get a bit disconnected from the world and switched off my mobile.

I was fortunate enough to receive the gift I had hoped for. 1h30 drive from Pune, with loud music, across small villages, hills and a dam, you can find the Pavna lake. There, I got a little taste of what it feels like to be a bird. Big bag attached to me and the paraglider, a little hop, and I was away in the sky. Flying above the lake, in level with the hills, and looking at the birds below me gliding as well – it was meditative. My little taste of freedom, of flight, of letting go and of learning to trust the winds.
