Well, I figured I would do another blog entry, to summarise the last little while in Europe! I arrived here in Vancouver after big delays leaving Frankfurt. It's living up to the tradition of my diarrhoea blogging style, so you'll be here for a while if you have the patience to read the entire post. Taghazout was a great way to finish Morocco. I took some surf lessons, and chilled out there on the beach for 5 days. When I finally left, I flew from Marrakech ba...

SExy Seville!!! I arrived here two days ago, after a sad(ish) departure from Rodellar, and from climbing for a little while. I had niggling tendon pain in my arm from overuse I guess, so I cut my stay a little short to come here! I managed a lift from Rodellar with some Americans to Barcelona airport, which was sweet, and got on my cheap flight down here. I managed to only leave 1 out of my 3 projects unclimbed in Rodellar, which is nice... The hostel here is...

Soooo....! I'm sitting in our room at a hostel in Barcelona, "borrowing" a friendly neighbour's wireless internet connection.

We were joined in Ceuse this past week by a couple we had met in Thailand, who turned up randomly at camp and joined our rig. A few days later we got a visit from Brendan (who I met at a few woodford's and climbed with a bit in ...

We left London one hot morning, to catch a 9 hour cheap bus to Paris, which wasn't too bad a journey. We had a hotel booked in Paris, which strangely was just as cheap as a hostel, and none of the hostels had a vacancy. I started to get sick on our first night in Paris with a sore throat, neck and headaches. It got worse the next two days we were there and included pretty heavy fever which was s***… Still managed to enjoy numerous pastries and treats… It cu...
