Im 32 with a toddler and another little one on the way so my climbing has suffered somewhat. Definitely just a recreational climber and not very good at that but I've been lucky enough to visit some amazing places with it :) from deep water soloing in Majorca to trad in Laos and sport in Thailand. My fave sport climbing destination is potrero Chico in Mexico, amazing place and a lovely climbers camp set up there. I also enjoy kayaking, via ferrata, mountain biking and walking...when I'm not the size of a whale (so not that often)

Best Climbing Experience
Seconding Great Harry at Laurencefield: it was an absolute desperate battle for the last 10feet as I'd exhausted myself in the main crack. Topping out on that was such a rush...I've never been so elated at the opportunity to lie down in my life.

Favourite Climbing-Related Discussion Topic
Whether the Sloth is a VS or a HVS: I have a couple of friends that wind each other up about this (both accept that it's a HVS...one just more adamently so, much to the others amusement) and it's led to some incidents on group trips.
