My name is Björn, I'm going to be 30 this year.

I have been wallclimbing for 9 months now and in this blog I want to share my experience with everybody.

I started wallclimbing to face my fears, I have always been afraid of heights, of falling and of depths.

A month before I started climbing I went skydiving to see how well I would do if I put myself in a scary situation.

It became the best day of my life at that time.

In the beginning climbing was hard, I have always been a person that just goes on without thinking so I often ended up at the top of a 15m wall only to then realize that I had to go down again, the ropes made these creepy noises (I didn't know at that time that they were just getting tighter because of the weight), So going down was a problem.

Luckily I trusted my securing partner who is actually also my boss from work.
