Up and down: A flying tour

If you’re in Puebla and need a morning break from the relaxation, culture and glamour, you needn’t go all that far. Just head yourself on road to the next, most extreme town, Cuautla, and treat yourself to a flying expedition.

 Cuautla is known for being the land of skydiving. And if you are setting you mind on this activity, i recommend starting with a light brunch and indulging in the quiet, relaxing, harmonic morning weather of this lovely settlement. The vast gardens, around since the 1500s, is home to several life forms, from evergreen valleys, a multitude of plantations, and of course, mounts colored with  thousands of trees. It’s known for its tranquil atmosphere and is a local favorite for strolling, reading, having coffee and enjoying the sprawling greenery in one of its parks, situated in the wild (that is completely tamed for your enjoyment).

Then walk down the streets toward the fields. This part of the excursion may take a while – between the art galleries, pastry shops and cafes, temptation lurks at every corner. In situations like this, I find it’s best to just give in, explore, and sample the neighborhood offerings.

When you do, inevitably, end up back at the fields, then you are ready to let go all calm and prepare yourself to an intensifying excitement. You are about to jump off a plain.

From there, it’s a trek to the skies. By this point you’re likely overstimulated and too stuffed with mixed sensations that give you that feel of butterflies in your stomach.

And what’s better end to an expedition than a 200 km/h free falling?

You are now living the life in Puebla, as it should be lived.
