Today I am joined with Rae who is autistic, we speak about our experiences and we talk about our skydiving journeys!  

We also have a good discussion about our special interests. Rae has a multiple selection of special interests such as, Space, Lego, Dinosaurs, Pokémon and American sport.  We also talk about films and how we like it to have a different ending. Rae has ADHD and says her Autism and ADHD are always fighting each other. 

Rae says not every autistic person will be the same, we have to develop a connection to feel empathy so we won't feel that all the time. We talk about routine with Skydiving because we like it to be done one go, skydiving in England is different because you have to wait for a clear sky, we talk about journeys falling out of a plane and how adventurous it is! 

Rae gives so advise saying, it's okay to be weird, being weird in your own way is better than to let what other people think of you get you! 

Thank you again Rae!
