[right:image:22817]Meet Sam, a keen Adventurer and Paragliding Instructor from the UK. Back home, Sam has transformed his love for the Great Outdoors and Teaching into his work, offering Bushcraft and Forest Skills programs to Schools and Youth Groups. His inspiration to teach paragliding was partly motivated by Jordan's documentary, [url=http://theboywhoflies.com]The Boy Who Flies[/url], about helping young, Godfrey Masauli become Malawi's first paraglider pilot. Today, Sam is taking his inspiration full-circle by gearing up to become one of the first volunteer instructors to share the gift of flight with the beautiful people of Malawi.

'As for why the project speaks to me, it has a lot to do with my ending up with two new toasters this year. Yes I like toast a lot, and sure there's a fairly reasonable explanation (one's a toaster oven,) but I realized at some point that nobody really needs two toasters. We have so much luxury and comfort in our lives that not everybody shares, and I want to learn how to spread that around. And, with the state of politics in the US turning so many people inward and away from each other, I was compelled to reach out somewhere totally new to expand my world and my connections. I smile most when I'm flying or traveling, and from what I've seen so far Malawians smile most of the time no matter what, so it seems a natural combination. I've started practicing Chichewa, and one of the first websites I found list four different ways to say I am happy! That's reason enough for me.' -Alan [group:image:22869][/][group:image:22870][/][group:image:22868][/]
