Bucketlist of Sports

There are many things I want to try before I die

Some of them include sport which I want to share with you

Diving

The highest on my to do sport bucketlist by far.

I dont even have a real excuse why I did not try it yet. I live near the ocean with countless good dive spots. There are more diving school than I can count and some of my friend are even diving instructors...

If they started to talk about diving, how it impacted their life either for their health or that it brought them to places they would never seen before you can only think "I should probably try this myself".

I dived with snorkel and mask before which I still do and enjoy quite a bit but I imagine this is a different ball game.
I enjoy the silence, watching the fish and just being underwater floating around.

I am also interested in free diving as I am very impressed by who long some people are capable of holding their breath.

If you remember the breath holding is part of the Wim Hof method and as a fan of meditation this moment between exhaling and inhaling is a moment full of peace and silence. With holding your breath you extend this moment what I really like.

That is one reason why I enjoy my little bit of snorkeling so much.


Skydiving

From the depth of the ocean to the highs in the sky.

The only similar I did so far was bungee jumping which was fun but very short and expensive.

I know skydiving is not cheap either which is the main reason I did not do it yet.

I only know one skydiver (who does it regular) and it is kind of the same as my diver friends when he starts talking about his hobby and the eyes start glowing.

And who does not want to fly even when it is just falling :-)

Writing this gave me the realization that I am way more interested in diving though, so I am off to the beach and do some snorkeling:-)

Do you have some Sports you need to try?

If so, what kept you from doing it?

Good choice, I wanna try bull-riding. People say its an amazing adrenaline rush for the first time. Its cheap too if you don't end up in a hospital.

While I think it is fun it is pretty cruel to the bull so I have mixed feelings about it but I can see the appeal

This is something I gotta do before I die for sure. It must be quite the experience.
