One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am tired of telling the same stories so that i started to write them; (needs to be edit in somepoint)
www.lifeisextralarge.blogspot.com

but a few crazy things,i have done;
paragliding in a horrible weather,couldn't land becuz of the strong wind , it took 45 min around 1500 meters (a friend of mine fell from 30 meters on to the beach) with a miracle they are both alive)
Climbed to a mountain barefoot no safety no water, nothing only a swimming suit the reason; to not to swim all the way back to the beach.. I thought I stuck and was ready there to wait for the helicopters:)) mean time a big rock fell on my foot,i broke my little toe... and you know what? the helicopters didnt showed up so i climbed down and swam all the way back...
I ve got a head shot! they asked me in the hospital; why I am alive? (A said sorry )
I got on a jet-sky, and traveled around a big island not a big deal but loved it!!
I swam in a freezing stream, it was difficult to stop! and reaaaly fckng freezing cold as i thought my sex life is over..
Ayahuasca - Peyote - San Pedro - Kambo
I missed the bus from Gent to Paris (ps:just a year before I missed the last bus from Brussel to paris long story) just becuz of we took the fckng (wrong) tram 8 in the fckng freezing sunday morning, met the fckng ticket controllers, i refused paying fckng 80 euros fine so they called the police... /check my blog
spent 10 hours in police station in Budapest just because of a fake bus ticket, (yes I've made it)
Erasmus in BUDAPEST
Living with 6 different nationalities in a Huuuge flat within Foreigners, Friends, Guests, Tourists (yes tourists), Couch Surfers, & the Colombian Landlord with a Romanian staff! (long story)
Swimming with the Whale sharks
i was in the stadium, match between FENERBAHÇE & galatasaray and the result 6-0, i lost my voice for 6 days =P (6th of Nov 2002)
Organized 38 Trips! they were both Amazing, made small/big touches on many ppl's life!
Went to Egypt to find my girlfriend no visa no money no nothing and she didnt know I was coming and i didnt know where she was, no mobile no internet...
went to Serbia to the Exit fest to find my friends, and they didnt know I was coming with no Festival ticket no Camping ticket no tent no nothing...
i was in Amsterdam with a bicycle that I found in a canal (swimming) spent the whole night cycling in the city & improved my self as; instead of having a boring couch i can survive with out..
and many more Crazy Things I've done! Thou, I am getting old
