I would have never ever imagined, that one day I would drink champagne at 10.060m (to be exact) in a private jet on the way to Nimes, Provence - South of France. How could I? But since I've started to welcome magic in my life and generally not to expect anything, I get surprised almost every day - sometimes less, sometimes more! 

This for sure was a very big surprise. But let me start from the beginning. 

Living in South Tyrol, the northernmost province of Italy, with a population of 530.000 people, means that we usually have to take a longer road to reach a bigger airport. 

South Tyrol has a very little airport in the capital city (Bozen, Bolzano), which offers in 2018 just a few flights to a few Italian vacation destinations during summer time, and of course you can fly in and out private.

This said, we usually have to travel far just to reach the airport, before we can even board an airplane.

As a passionated traveler I know all the airports in a reachable radius from 2-5 hours train ride. It's always a pain in the ass to waist so much time just to reach the airport. Nonetheless I traveled and still travel the world.

Therefore, to fly from Bozen, Bolzano is sweet as honey.

Let the adventure begin! 

I could feel my excitement rise when I was driving up to the small airport in Bozen, Bolzano. I saw a lot of very small airplanes and helicopters at the airport. I asked myself: "Which one will I fly with?" 

My travel gang, composed of four people and one dog, was already waiting for me at the airport. We were supposed to meet at 9 am and I drove up punctual on the minute. 

Four big smiles and a bark were expecting me: I knew already Mihaela, Peter and Robby - the dog. Jolanda and Lorenz got to be my new travel companions. 

So here I was, sitting on the pilot's seat in a private jet and looking at all the instruments, which are mostly digital nowadays, and I started to laugh! Instead of sitting in an office, working 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, I had such a fabulous day - and the day wasn't even finished yet.

I know, maybe one day I need to go back to a proper job, if my ideas don't work out, but at least I've tried to go my path! One day, when I'm old - like really old - I don't want to think about things I could have done and which I didn't, because I was too afraid or too scared or too whatever. I don't want to have regrets, I just have one life - as far as I know. 

So please, my dear reader, my dear friend, start thinking about your dreams, your ideas and think about what you don't want to regret one day, what you didn't have done. 

I truly believe, that nowadays there is so much possible and that we can achieve something, even if it's just a small thing. You decide how you want to live your life.  I know, it's not always easy - but hey, otherwise it would be boring :-)
