示例答案
I would like to talk about a wonderful trip I took to Manali, a beautiful hill station in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh, and an exciting outdoor activity I experienced there.
Where it is?
Manali is located in the northern Himalayas, surrounded by snow-capped mountains and lush green valleys. It’s about 550 kilometres from Delhi and is famous for adventure sports and breathtaking scenery.
When you went there?
I visited Manali about two years ago, during my winter college break. We planned a five-day trip with a small group of friends because we all wanted to see snow and enjoy some adventure activities.
What outdoor activity you did?
The highlight of the trip was paragliding in Solang Valley. After a short trek up the hill, a professional instructor attached the harness and explained safety instructions.
When we finally jumped off the cliff, the feeling was unforgettable. We soared high above the valley, with pine forests below and white mountains all around. The cold wind on my face and the silence of the sky made it feel like I was literally flying.
How you felt about this experience?
At first, I was a bit nervous and excited because I had never tried such an extreme sport before. But once we were in the air, all my fear disappeared and I felt an incredible sense of freedom and peace.
It also gave me a big boost of confidence—if I could do something this daring, I felt I could handle other challenges in life too.
Conclusion
This trip to Manali and my paragliding adventure remain one of the most memorable experiences of my life. It combined natural beauty, friendship, and a thrilling outdoor activity that I would love to try again someday.
