Travelling the world is my other big passion. There are a few places where I was lucky enough to be able to scale a mountain or two, and some of these trips are documented here. Although most are hikes and involve little or no scrambling, they stand out to me because of the different climates and cultural environments that add an extra layer of interest. The logistics of getting to some of them are also a challenge in itself.
