Paragliding!

It is not intuitive to jump off the edge of a mountain 6000 ft above the ground… But when the opportunity to fulfill Avi’s deeply rooted childhood desire to fly became available-- is intuition really that important? It was an obvious choice to try Paragliding. And we must say, Nepal looks pretty nice from a bird’s eye view.


Cassie gearing up
Before her harness was fully fastened, Avi was already soaring high above Planet Earth
And taking pictures of his feet...
Cassie made it up soon enough, with a smile upon her face
In the good hands of a Nepali pilot, Avi's dream became a reality
How often do you have the opportunity to look DOWN on a mountain ridge-line
With a backdrop of the snow-capped Himalayas
Cassie prepares for landing
Still alive- with vomit bag in hand... empty!!!

  1. There's nothing better than paragliding. The Himalayas are the perfect backdrop to fly. Keep on soaring above the world.
