The swallows can, I do understand Leonardo’s dreams very well and was fortunate enough to even experience it on my own. It is so beautiful to be able to get the distance between you and the ground and I miss it a lot.

For me it is part of seeing the bigger picture, the right way and it sounds absolutely convincing for me, when statements are given by Chris Hadfield and his fellow astronauts, that make it even more intriguing for myself.

I hope, to be able to go back up there again, on my own, too.

And if there is another life, I chose to be one of the following animals, a Swallow or an Albatross, as the perfect pilots with different expertise.
