The urge to fly can consume you at anytime - I can go there whenever I choose, no advance planning needed. My glider is stored at native place and whenever I get a chance to leave work I ride up to Kamshet on my bike for a flight.

My wife and I learnt together. Our 3 year old daughter came along with us. This was possible because of the encouragement and assistance of the nirvana crew and the support system in terms of native place – almost like being at home.

First I did 2 tandem flights and was so excited that I immediately decided to join for the beginner course. I dont regret my choice! After completing the course I continued to fly almost every weekend with the school gear. My 2 year stay in India came to an end in …. But before I left for Belgium I bought a wing from Sanjay.

I hope someday i will return there to fly again with my friends, i'll try to make it in April ;-)

Learning to fly & finding a peaceful haven – Learning to fly was a childhood dream. I did the 5 day P1 course in 2004 over 2 weekends. I was supposed to join up with a couple of friends who could not make it in the last minute. I’m so happy I did not delay it any further. The P1 course was a gentle step by step process and the instructors were patient, helpful and friendly. At the end of the day the return to Native Place was like going back home to a wonderful meal, great atmosphere and a great bunch of people.

“It's not just the perfect flying site what makes the difference...it's the people who are running it”

Sanjay, as you know my day's are counted in India (this does not mean the friendship will stop). My last day will be the 06.10.06.
I'm planning my farewell party on 30.09.06. I hope all Native Place people are able to come.

Ps. there is a holiday on 2 October, do you feel, the new season will start by then? Is their any chance to fly one last time with you before I move back to Germany?

Paragliding with Nirvana Adventures = thrills & tranquility - I enrolled for the 3 day course in October 2006. I carried two books along with me to read during my free time. I read exactly 5 pages in 5 days. Each day I had new or nostalgic experiences. One day I walked out towards the village and saw a guy catching fish. The next day I took a ride in a bullock cart, haven’t done that in a long time

10 days to Nirvana – I signed up for P1 and P2 courses back to back in 2006. I came in from Scotland and Sanjay had arranged to have me picked up from the airport. It was a fabulous trip of discovery & friendship. I experienced India through the people I met and the great flying I had at Kamshet – incredible! Since then I have bought my own PG equipment and fly in Scotland.

3 days to achieving a dream – it was my dream to fly solo and I had delayed it for two full years already. When the plans to move to Bangalore became final I decided it was time to enroll for the 3 day course and achieve my dream if not become a hobby pilot as was my long term plan. Before my solo I had a case of nerves but thanks to Sanjay Pendurkar’s timely intervention and patience I conquered my demons and achieved a dream. The 3 days with Nirvana Adventures and native place will always remain special for me.

2nd weekend of the P1 course and we were hooked for life – Sanjay, the second weekend was really great and I think all of us are hooked for life. This weekend, we had Yogi and Ravi all to ourselves (we were the only people flying). They were excellent. Great instruction and great support too. Looking forward to being there as often as we can. See you in the sky.

We came together, a family of four to do the 2 day introductory course. We were all very excited about the paragliding experience and our expectations were surpassed. The paragliding was great but Native Place was the wild card - you get to meet people from all over the world its like traveling abroad.
