Last Sunday, I took my boyfriend to accompany me paragliding
at Denmark’s tiny beach. At the end of a broken road, my paragliding trainer
started to help me wearing the harness, preparing the wing, and launching the parachute.
I began to jump and felt the fresh wind which blew through my hair. My parachute
moved as the wind blew to a certain direction. My feet felt the grass’ dry
texture. I saw a clear bright blue sky on the horizon. The sea looked so blue
and the smell of the sea could be smelled from such long height. I looked at
some people waving at me, then I waved them back. I continued to focus on my
paragliding activity. Sometimes, when I saw a traffic sign, I jumped onto it so
I could fly even higher. After some minutes, I spent my time looking through
the light house. I hopped when my left foot stepped on the light house’s roof. I
was quite hypnotized by the landscape of the whole beach until I didn’t realize
that the sky turned into purple-orange color. While enjoying myself rotating
and spinning through the sky, I slowly glided my parachute down to the broken
road. I carefully put my feet onto the ground, thus making my paragliding
activity session ended. It was quite fun and I hope someday I could visit
Denmark again.
