Sarangkot, Pokhara
I'm flying! I'm flying!
Paragliding - first ever in my life!
It is sickening fun!
It's a tandem flight with the professional pilots from Blue Sky Paragliding office located at Khahare -6, Lakeside, Pokhara.
About 25mins drive to Sarangkot, then few walk up to the hill.
We had three rejected take-off because of the wind and each tries my chest was beating dub-dub-dub, the hillside is just a step away (dub-dub-dub).

Preparations
We had three rejected take-off because of the wind and each tries my chest was beating dub-dub-dub, the hillside is just a step away (dub-dub-dub).
Once my feet lifted from the ground, up and away the drumbeating from my chest just vanished I am flying!!! I am flying!!! Overlooking the icy mountain range, the Fewa Lake, roofs, the greenery, feels cloud 9.
Flying at 1800 altitude.
I now understood the feeling of hyperventilated sickness. I felt a sudden headache, stomach pain, weakness, hands, and feet coldness and tingling, though it's cold I feel sweating from my forehead, barfing felt like more air in my stomach. Felt like a melting candle.
I requested the pilot to get lower a bit, I was feeling like a battery losing its energy. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
I felt better and played again with the wind as we get lowered.

The Landing
The Ground
It took some time to recover from the air sickness. Just surrendered our back to stable and flat land.
Certainly, will definitely do it again!!!
