At our base airfield (I could call it my dropzone, but it isn't exactly what you'd imagine under the term). Some balloonists took off from it with a bunch of panoramic flight passengers (4 balloons altogether). Somehow, our organizer talked them into taking a skydiver with them for free and I happened to be one of the few who hadn't jumped from a balloon yet.

Milano or Venice (even better) preferrably). Then start travelling east. If you hit Austria, you're too far north. Soon you should come to Slovenia, a little country a lot of people have heard of, but fewer can locate. Get to its capital and call me up- I might be able to provide a cheap place to stay. Start helping out at our skydiving club- sacrifice free time, work for free and do whatever it takes to convince people you're a great guy. It may take up to a year before the opportunity arises again, but if you play it right, you'll be the first in line when free balloon jumps are available again. Still interested?
