The Best Adventure Activities

           👉 “live in the moment, enjoy each day like it’s your last” 👈

      An adventure is an exciting experience or undertaking that is typically courageous, sometimes risky. Adventurous experiences make psychological arousal. Outdoor adventurous activities are naturally undertaken for the purposes of recreation or excitement: examples are adventure racing and adventure tourism. Adventurous activities can also directive to gains in knowledge, such as those undertaken by explorers and pioneers.

                 I also like adventure activities. of course, I am curious about that. Because I have not had the opportunity to have such an experience yet. Let me tell you about some of my favorite adventure activities people around the world do.

        Skydiving is parachuting from an airplane for fun. Training is required. People do skydiving individually and with groups of people. Typically skydives are carried out from around 4,000m (or 12,500ft) offering 40 to 50 seconds of freefall time.

Death Road in La Paz Bolivia is officially named the world’s most dangerous road in 1995. This road stretches about 61 km and covers La Paz to Coroico. With an estimated 200 to 300 people killed on this road every year.

Rafting is a specific activity on water using a particular inflatable boat. Rafting could be an exciting boat trip to gorgeous places having new experiences and emotions without extra thrill and safe.

            Bungee jumping is one of the most enjoyed extreme sports. Bungee jumping is an action-filled entertaining activity that involves head-first jumping from a tall structure with an elastic cord attached to participants' feet. Macau Tower in China and Verzasca Dam in Switzerland are some of the best places for bungee jumping.

        Life is a daring adventure too. I hope you will cope well with that adventurous experience.

 

Travel by Train

        I love to travel by train. My closest friends are also like. So we suddenly went on a trip. Because the planned trip will never go.😂 

 Anyway, we all met in the morning at Polgahawela station🚉 and bought tickets to Kandy. We waited impatiently for the train to arrive. It was an Express train🚄. Unfortunately, the train was full. We could not find any seats and it was difficult to stand. We quietly reached Kandy. Then we worshiped the Dalada Maligawa and visit the Kandy City Center. We got our lunch at a restaurant and went to come back.  We happily boarded the train. Because there were no people on the train. We grabbed one train compartment.  

 

 

                                   

      Then started our enjoying time and we sang songs🎵 and danced🕺💃. we shouted as we can as the train passed through the bunkers. Actually, we did not miss a single bunker😁. On the way, there was an incident that I will never forget. While stopped at a train station, My mobile was fallen from the train where two train cages connecting each other. I and also my friends were scared😧. Then a former officer at the station quickly took my phone and gave me. I thank him a lot. I did not let my happiness be shattered by that incident. But I was determined to work carefully at all times.

Preparing Desserts and Spicy Food

                   In my life, I love to do many activities which help me exercise and made me feel alive. among those activities preparing spicy food is one of my favorites. In my point view, this hobby is a way for me to relax my mind😌 and improve my artistic capabilities. Usually, I am interested in making fruit pickles such as Rose apple, star fruit. mango and many other fruits. Following are fruit pickles made by me when I am free. 😋

      

                        I usually at Pinch of salt, pepper, sugar, chilli powder when preparing the more delicious. This type of spicy food makes me happier and I taste them with my sisters. when the fruiting season of Rose Apple has come, I am eager to prepare the rose Apple pickles.

Superhumanly Strong Girl

     I wanted to tell you about a beautiful storybook😍 I read when I was a kid. The book is “Pippi Longstocking”. It was written by Astrid lindgren. It has also been translated into Sinhala and the title of the book is “Pippi Diga Mes”. This book was translated into sixty-two languages so it is a very famous storybook. Pippi means "quirky" in old Swedish slang.

          Pippi is a little girl👧. But she is powerful and brave. She has red hair and speckle. She has superhuman strength and is easily able to lift her horse with one hand. Pippi only really gets angry😠 when someone treats her horse badly. Her mother died soon after her birth. She is the daughter of a pirate captain and has adventurous tales to tell. With her suitcase of gold coins, Pippi maintains an independent lifestyle without her parents. Her horse🐎, Mr. Niliyan who is a monkey🐒, and the neighbor’s children Tommy👦 and Annika👧 are her best friends.

       The first movie about “Pippi Longstocking” was filmed in 1949. It was directed by Per Gunvall and released on October 20, 1950. A television series has also been created based on the story.

                            Despite periodic attempts by village authorities to make her conform to cultural expectations of what a child's life should be, Pippi happily lives free from social conventions. she makes not the slightest attempt to adopt good manners. She is the self-proclaimed "strongest girl in the world"💪. I think she is a kind girl with a warm heart💓.

                            However, Pippi Longstocking is a very funny Story Book😜. We must be kind, loyal, and powerful like that Pippi. I think you have read that book too.

Let's Practice English Language

                         English is very important in our day-to-day life. because English is mostly used in communicating all over the world. As well as I think everyone needs to learn the English language in order to get in touch on an international level. Below are some tips to improve your English knowledge that I am also practicing.

          Today we use social networking sites a lot. I hope this social media such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube will help you to learn new words.💻 

         Also, you can read and watch the news in English like BBC & CNN. This would also build your listening skills. you can update yourself with current affairs and it would help you to build your vocabulary.📺📰

         I read children's books and watch children's cartoons. Because the language that is used in these books are simple so once you start reading these books it would help you to understand the language well. Cartoons are usually repetitive so same simple language. this way you would also build your vocabulary and also build your listening skills.📗

         We all love to dance and sing English songs. But at times we struggle with lyrics. that time I just Google and download the song lyrics. In fact, this would also help you to get those words out of your mouth. because if you enjoy singing, automatically English words will pour out of your mouth.🎶💃

          Also, you can maintain a diary. it would help you to write better. also, you can add new phrases or new words that you have learned.📖

        If you can talk little by little with your friends and others in English you will improve your English knowledge and speaking skills. If you practice more, the language will come naturally to you. Eventually, you will start speaking so fluently.👫

You have to find a little time for yourself to practice the English language. All the best.😊👍
