โStanding at the edge of the mountain and looking down the world was an experience hard to explain in words. Though taking off was much easier than I thought! Just a few steps running down the hill and in the air!โ
โThen we started to descend, slowly. The way to land for paragliding is similar to take off. We fly over Pokhara valley and finally landed safely with both feet on the ground at the bank of Phewa lake. It was the best experience in my lifetime. I flew like a bird.โ
โEveryone I met told me paragliding in Nepal wasnโt really scary. Truth be told, I thought it was both scarier than bungee jumping and at the same time not as scary. The amount of time spent in the sky gave me anxiety, but it didnโt have the terrifying aspect of looking over the edge of a 525 foot drop. Regardless of being scared, I really enjoyed my flight and the incredible views it offered.โ
