    I was in Nepal for a few days and I decided to go on a hot air balloon ride as a last-minute activity. I am so glad I did! It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. The views were simply stunning and I felt like I was floating on air. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a unique and unforgettable experience.
