There are innumerable outdoor sports but nothing would be quite like trying paragliding. I have always been fascinated by the idea of soaring through the sky and experiencing the freedom of light. If I look back earlier, I used to be less inclined towards the outdoor games and preferred the indoor games more. But once I saw a video of a girl doing paragliding and I instantly decided to try this myself. The thrill of gliding through the landscapes and feeling the winds rush past me is something I find incredibly appealing. I longed to do this in Manali, one of the most renowned paragliding spots in India. Not only the lush green valleys below make it an excellent spot but the breathtaking scenery is something to die for. Although it is considered to be quite a complex activity but I believe that with proper guidance it is quite like stealing candy from a baby. Although I have noticed that many people learn it with long the basics within a few weeks, yet sometimes for some people it might take a little bit longer. Paragliding is an outdoor sport that excites me so much due to its adventurous nature and the stunning view it offers. I look forward to try this with full enthusiasm in Manali. If I ever get a chance to go there, I would definitely not miss that.
