Guy: What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
Me: I dunno. I don't really see the things that I do as crazy or ridiculous...but other people might.
Guy: What do you mean?
Me: Well, I'm not sure. I guess I mean that the risks I take, I don't see them as being crazy. BUT something cool, and I guess, daring, that I've done recently is skydive.
Guy: What?! Really?!
Me: Yes, here's the proof.

On a whim, one morning, I decided to skydive.

I googled places to skydive in Israel and came across Paradive. The staff were super friendly on the phone and in-person. I booked my appointment and a mere 20-minute drive later, I found myself near the Habonim and Dor beaches in a secluded field dotted with an ultra-modern facility.

One hour later, I was doing flips and turns with my instructor, Lior, from 11,000 meters up in the air. In Lior's words, the views were quite romantic...breathtaking and beautiful.

I would jump again in a heartbeat, especially if the views are just as gorgeous.

If you are interested in jumping and are in Israel, definitely check out Paradive!
