ABOUT ME

Hi I'm ken.

PHILOSOPHY

Mountaineernig & Climbing is my passion, and its what i live for. only climbers can understand the true addiction it creates.Most alpinists make hard climbs look easy.I prefer to make easy climbs look hard.

Music, Movies, and Books

My Tv has a 2cm layer of dust on it from not being turned on for several months.This says 2 things: 1- I am dirty (or a better way to put it, I'm easy going)2 - I generally dont watch tv or read books, but rather go out to enjoy the outdoors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

most amazing I can recall, is on a 3 hour canoe ride deep through a  tropical jungle.... when all of a sudden a monkey jumps from a tree into my lap, steals my food and jumps off.I had to share food with others for the rest of that trip, but it sure did freak me out.

Teach, Learn, Share

i would love to teach newbies how to climb.we all do it as kids, and its natural to us. Life is so busy we loose some of these skills but the urge to climb higher and higher is still within everybody's inner soul.some people climb corporate ladders, some people climb social circles, but i prefer to climb mountains.

Countries I’ve Visited

China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand, Timor-Leste (East Timor)

Countries I’ve Lived In

Viet Nam
