GoPro 4Silver
Hey Guys,
My name is Mark, i'm 25 years old and I come from a tiny island called Malta. As a child, I always looked for hobbies to fill my time with. I tried them all but I always found myself always wanting something more extreme. Rugby was the last sport I tried and an injury to my lowerback back made me give it up. Depressed that I will never be able to find a sport that I can be passionated about, I started eating and drinking a lot. I smoked double the amount of cigarettes and lived a life in which I pretended to be happy. All my friends and family tried to show me that there was a better way but I ignored it all.
One day with around 120kgs I went out with a girl I liked at the time. I had recently told her that I liked her more than a friend, so this day was the day I would have found out how she felt about me. Well to cut the story short, due to my weight she decided against dating me. Struggling to keep my cool, I had my first panic attack. My heart was racing and I was close to passing out. The day after I went to see a heart doctor who told me that I was lucky that to have come to him because if I would have kept the same lifestyle, I would have ended up having a heart attack the next time I would have faced the same uncomfortable situation.
This is were I decided to make a change in my life! I quit smoking drinking and made a healthy diet and also met the woman of my dreams with whom I moved to Regensburg Germany with. I lost 40Kgs and never felt any better. I also found a new sport that I am very passionate about and can not wait to Master. This is Enduro Mountain Biking. Sadly, I am not earning enough money to afford a GoPro 4Silver and all the accessories needed due to a fulltime language course I am currently attending. My aim is to capture the most memorable moments of biking in this beautiful country and share them with the world to inspire the people who like me have been inspired by the beauty of Enduro Mountain Biking.
For this I am humbly asking for your help to make my dream come true!
Thank you for taking time out of your day to read my description
and hope you can help me with my dream! Much Love ;)
