Taking Flight Into the Himalayas: A Journey Beyond the Ordinary
Join adventurer Gabriel Morris as he escapes the bustling streets of Delhi, India, and embarks on a breathtaking journey high into the majestic Himalayas. In his latest video, “I’m Taking a Flight Into the Himalayas,” Gabriel captures the essence of leaving behind the urban chaos to explore some of the highest peaks on Earth.
After spending nearly a week in the vibrant capital city, it’s time for a change of scenery. Gabriel shares his anticipation and excitement as he boards a flight that promises not just a change in altitude, but a transformation in perspective. With stunning aerial views and an enthralling narration, viewers are treated to a front-row seat to the spectacular landscapes that define this awe-inspiring region.
Set against a backdrop of rich music from talented artists like Taomito, Pawan Krishna, and Pierce Roswell, the journey is accompanied by an atmospheric score that enhances the sense of adventure. Gabriel’s skilled cinematography, captured with a DJI Osmo Action, brings the Himalayas to life, offering an intimate glimpse into a world that seems almost otherworldly.
As someone who has been traversing the globe since he was 18, Gabriel’s passion for budget-friendly travel and outdoor exploration shines in this video. His insightful storytelling invites viewers to not only witness the beauty of the Himalayas but also to contemplate the importance of stepping out of our comfort zones.

Did you have to give an explanation as to why you had to leave the airport?
can't believe they let you go in the terminal without a ticket??
WOW… it's the Wizard of Oz come to life!!! 🐵🐵🐵
If Europeans would have continued to be present they would have turned that town into a gem in the highlands. Strict architectural rules, charming restaurants, beautiful shops and simply good life. What Simla looks now: just like any Indian or Pakistani or Afghani city. Noise, overcrowded, ugly architecture etc.. Just the same uninteresting cluster of ugly buildings..so sad
❤❤❤❤when we break the bread not an ankle darling boy we hold it up and we make an insect clasper because we have a covenant and I know that because I do this traditional service that you will know I love you gabs.

The Indian Himalayas yay!! You made the right choice! Looking forward to seeing this beautiful part of India. Shimla looks so peaceful. What a view from your room! 🙏❤️🏔️
Your India and Nepal videos are always my favourites. I first discovered you through your Indian videos about 10 years ago, Your videos have inspired many of my own travels, especially through India and Nepal. Looking forward to seeing where you end up this trip.
Not to get personal…. But i wonder what’s the source of your income that sustains your perpetual travel? Checking socialblade shows you don’t earn too much from youtube… i think you’ve explained this earlier, but can you refresh us in 2026? Cheers!
Hi Gabe, what about flying down to Kerala after this fantastic place; showing the amazing contrast between these 2 parts of India.
Gabriel is in his right element again 🎉 Back to full on old school, retro, Lonely Planet, Globe Trekker, backpacker vibes 🌍 It's like you can smell the travel adventure in the air 🇮🇳 We are looking forward to more of this 🎊 The real deal 🥰 Much love and respect from your big fans in Norway 🇳🇴
Awesome Gabe! I was so happy to see you back in India! Can't wait to be back there myself soon-ish.
Wow 🤩✌️⭐
It is a much nicer place than Delhi.
I was in Shimla in 1993 and again this June. It has changed so much but still worth visiting even though it is very crowded. Pretty good view from your room.
Hardworking people deserve a little bit help ❤❤
For Spiti I believe you require a Inner Line Permit as a foreigner, better check if you need to get it in Shimla
You should keep going, Gabe! Spiti Valley calling!
Go to Sissu bro… Sissu is magical now with golden Autumn and snow clad mountain
Gab my man, this is what we want to see, you are always in your element when in the himalayas..seeing the Preview itself i knew where you were..this is gonna be a good one i hope..not only you but we the viewers also enjoy your trips tremendously..would love to see you in Rishikesh again though..👍
61 usd for that? Joke
Been there! It wouldn't have been my first choice I'd go somewhere in India I'd never been before like Orissa or the far south coast
Serious question Gabriel out of the countries you haven't visited yet where would you go first?
❤❤❤
Thst Uber incident is explainable as far as I know what has happened to me, they do various manoeuvres to charge you waiting time, i had a guy in Kolkata passing me by as if he didn’t see me clearly standing on our mutually agreed pick up
Spot, but it’s rare at least in my experience and i take Uber in India all the time,
I don’t like to complain as sometimes , as with Ola, they just drop you as a customer but Uber customer service was much more civil and addressed the issue, they told me that they will try to partner me with more suitable drivers which actually was the truth 😃 they even refunded the waiting time charge, they actually ask to report incidents
Lol I asked chatgpt for calm realistic blogging and it showed u
Himalayas ❤️ to nepal
Make a vande Bharat sleper train journey from Delhi to varanasi, it's starting on 31st oct , it could go viral.
Can you also go to the Andaman islands, as you suggested in your previous video? Or Lakshadweep? That's another way to show a great "other side of India"…
Namasté, this is more my thing. Beautiful and peaceful footage. Thx 🙏
Gsbriel, tell us how your tummy does on this Himalayan trip… I'm told that you should prepare to have an intestinal flush??😱
Shimla ❤🙏
Wow nice, clean room and w/ that beautiful mountains view for $23 only that's very cheap. Glad to see u back in India. I think this is ur 3rd consecutive year visiting India around Diwali time.
crap episode
Monkeys are delicious too by the way haha
Himalaya is my dream …
Would be nice if you could level out the b-roll music, keep having to turn my tv up and down as your speaking is quiet and then the b-roll music is blasting
you are very lucky. in Cappadocia a fairy chimney collapsed. 2 dead and many others trapped,
looks slightly less busy compared to Delhi.. Safe travels big Fella 🙂
Pretty sure that band you showed on Spotify is AI. Just listen to Yes or Thin Lizzy instead
India has an incredible diversity of cultures, languages, and cuisines. If you travel across the entire country, you will feel as though you are visiting hundreds of different countries.
The faith and devotion that people in India have in God are unlike anything you will find anywhere else in the world. If you truly want to experience India, visit all its states. You will feel as though you have entered a completely different world in each one.
There is no other country in the world quite like India. 🇮🇳
Sir Gabriel…are you planning of visiting where the tragedy is at? Or it's not on your travel plan. That will be sad to see.
Fab Gab ❤
🥰❤💖👍👍👌✌🙏✨
A great video Gabriel.
I just love India…definitely my favorite country. ❤
And the mighty Himalayas…there are no words to describe …it's the feeling.🥰❤🙏✨
