Paragliding in Nepal

[NOTE: This video has a HUGE-BASS soundtrack, so put on your big speakers]

After the Annapurna circuit trek, we bussed in to Pokhara, a small city immediately south of the Annapurna Range. It is an outdoor sports centre, and a springboard for Himalayan adventures, but for me it was a springboard into the sky as it also happens to be a very popular paragliding spot.

I decided to drop my cash at Sarangkot Paragliding, information at the end of the video.

@justanotherkiwi  The landing is like stepping out of a city bus. Nothing to it. The Facebook vid was shit, it was just a rough draft made in Windows Movie Maker...

@monkeetime Ewww not MOVIE MAKER xP.

@justanotherkiwi don't make a big scene, i am still a bit sensitive about it... What do middle aged ladies, mopeds, and Windows Movie Maker all have in common? It's fun to mess around with them, until your friends find out...

don't underestimate middle aged ladies, at least not if you're overaged!

DZieki za wiadomosc, ze zyjesz, dobrze sie bawisz, chyba musze szybko uczyc sie angielskiego, aby rozumiec swojego kuzyna- na razie rozumiem tylko sens, o czym opowiadasz. Bratanek wujka Wladka tez lata na takich lotniach, ale chyba tylko w Europie( Marian Nowak ze Szczecina). Niezla wycieczka, moze kiedys tez sprubuje....

Pozdrawiamy Ola , Mietek, Weronika i Jakub
