Climbing Is What I Do.

Mountains Are Not Stadiums Where I Satisfy My Ambition To Achieve, They Are The Cathedrals Where I Practice My Religion.

Big Mountains Are A Completely Different World: Snow, Ice, Rocks, Sky, And Thin Air. You Cannot Conquer Them, Only Rise To Their Height For A Short Time; And For That They Demand A Great Deal. The Struggle Is Not With The Enemy, Or A Competitor Like In Sports, But With Yourself, With The Feelings Of Weakness And Inadequacy. That Struggle Appeals To Me. It Is Why I Became A Mountaineer.

Climbing Is What I Do.

I Travel To Jakarta, I See What An Important Country It Is. I've Been Working With Them For A Year.

I Don't Know What Being An Everest Guide Means. I Am A Coach, Not A Guide.
