One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing in Ayna, Spain with a few good friends was pretty special. A bearutiful spot with lots of climbing, great food, great weather and great company. Cant ask for much more.White-water rafting at laschene rapids, (Montreal, Canada) two days after a huge storm was incredible. Climbing on the Cliffs of Moher in the Burren (Co. Clare, Ireland) was probably one of the best days of my life! (I've put up a photo or two of one route if your curious!). Swimmin in Puerto rico in general waas pretty incredible. We found a perfect pristine beach that we had all to ourselves...Hvar in Croatia, just in general, beautiful town. Such kind people. renting a little boat and disappearing off into the islands for a few days was probably the highlight.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning new things...it doesnt matter what it is. Its always worth a shot! Teaching, hmmmm. If anyone's interested in climbing I can show them a few moves! Also I have a PhD in Molecular Microbiology if thats any use to someone...I'm always happy to help. Oh ye, and me speaky gud English ;)
