Sample Answer of Describe an Activity You Did in A New Place

I love to try something new, especially when we are on a trip. New things could be anything like new cuisine, activity or attire. I vividly remember last year when we were on a trip to Dalhousie and Khajjiar.

We spent the night at both places. Khajjiar is basically known as the mini Switzerland of India because of its beauty. There were many activities available to do at that time.

My friend Priya and I decided to try paragliding. It was a new experience for both of us. They used to charge 1200 rs per person. So we paid the money and went for it.

They took us to the destination, from where we had to start climbing the mountain for it. We began to However, it was more difficult than we both imagined as we didn’t exercise regularly.

When we reached the middle of the mountain, we thought we should give up, but our instructor didn’t allow us to give up in the middle. Finally, we reached the top and were assigned a trained paraglider who would accompany us.

They used to provide gliders according to the weight of the individual. They gave us instructions, and then simultaneously, the paragliding journey started for my friend and me.

I don’t have words to define the experience we had. It was definitely worth having this experience. The view of the mountains was breathtaking. So the experience, which began as bitter initially, turned out to be the sweetest experience I ever had. I will surely do it again in the future, but first, I will make myself a little fit to easily climb a mountain.
