I may give the impression of being a guy who lives in Zen-like calm and could well be rolling prayer wheels at a monastery, but the truth is that I savour taking risks and jumping off the high board. My favourite pastimes reflect this. I find little else as exhilarating as the feeling of being one with the clouds and the sky while paragliding and feeling the sea spray on my face as I wind-surf or take off on a jet-ski, chasing the waves on holidays. Las Palmas in the Canary Islands has always been my favourite destination to tick off my bucket list brimming with my cravings for adventure.
