I'm still pursuing gliding as a hobby. About every other weekend I spend a day on the airstrip. So far I haven't had a lot of flights because of the weather. Last Sunday however was just perfect:

With 19 degrees C it was probably the last nice day of the season. I did my first ascension all on my own and am starting to get the hang of how to fly. We did the G-force test, which basically means that the instructor pulls some stunts and I get to enjoy. For something so flimsy looking, the aircraft can easily pull +5G and -1G and I absolutely love that. Part of me was wondering whether I should put more or less time and energy into gliding, but I'm now solidly on the 'more' side.

On the non-gliding weekends, I visit my parents. I just realized that the 3,5-4h one-way trip I make for that could also get me to the foot of the Eiffel Tower, to London or to Brussels and back. Sadly those options are not free while my student pass grants me unlimited train rides in the weekends. But still.

Yesterday I was a bit bored so I downloaded Tinder. I'm not very good at it.
