I have come, I have seen, I have flown…at all seven continents and this, this is the story of the last one. Australian, which also includes the South Island of New Zealand, a land promised to eagle-men and to me, precisely because of the connection with Tolkien’s fantastic world of Middle Earth. This is the most beautiful jewel, the Silmarill, which I gained in the form of ordeals and experiences during the 1100 kilometer bivouac solo flight. Sit comfortable, we’re taking off!
