Description
Rebecca Loncraine's life was turned upside down when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in her mid-thirties. Two years later, after months of gruelling treatment, she discovered a new passion - flying. In a glider, soaring 3,000 feet over the landscape of her childhood, she found a sense of freedom and joy that had eluded her during her illness. As Rebecca travelled to remote locations around the world, including the Black Mountains in Wales, New Zealand's Southern Alps, and the Nepalese Himalayas, she became increasingly drawn to flying with birds. Her obsession took her to new heights, both literally and metaphorically, as she pushed herself to confront her fears and learn to live again. This is Rebecca Loncraine's story - a journey of self-discovery, perseverance, and the transformative power of flight.
