Fear of Flying



I like to discover new places and I like to discover new cultures. I especially like to learn about the Czech cultural heritage and other aspects of the country. This has always fascinated me. This is because my family is very dynamic. I remember when I was a kid, my siblings and I used to go somewhere together. We would go abroad to experience different cultures. I really enjoyed it, and I knew that if it weren\’t for my mother or father and my siblings, I probably would have never learned about other cultures. Because I still remember as a kid I always wanted to be outside with my kids and I didn\’t want to go see the culture.

Létat se hmot bojím.

I thought it was boring. But I have been abroad several times for culture and tourism like this, and I enjoyed it very much. I was hooked. If you don\’t know something and you don\’t enjoy it, I think that\’s a great shame. You should try everything. Only if it\’s safe, of course. I would never do anything really dangerous, like skydiving or bungee jumping. So my parents always looked for places or foreign countries where they could go by car or bus or train.

Uznávám, že kabina je krásná.

We often went to Paris and Italy. I always went by bus or by car. I think if I had gone by plane I would have been really scared and wouldn\’t have enjoyed the trip; five out of ten people seem to be afraid of flying, and I\’m one of them. I don\’t think I could fly. Of course, if I must fly somewhere, like Turkey or Greece, I would rather go somehow or stay home. I don\’t know what I would do. I might have to take sleeping pills to sleep while I\’m on the plane.
