Switzerland – My half year home (from Winter to Autumn)

Grindelwald, Switzerland


After graduation from university, i dreamt about mountaineering as my lifestyle. so, i found a job in switzerland in order to pursue my dreams and happiness. living into swiss alps, although all the mountains are surrounding me, the realities of world resist me to make my dream come true wholeheartedly. however, i can tell you i do my best to grasp what i would like bravely. now, you are reading one stupid boy to do something you think crazy. it is my life, no regret.

Working under Swiss Alps, I did a varied of duties. Some of them I did not like it for sure. However, watching through the window, all mountains told me that I should be a tough person for preparing the challenge into the wilderness. Sacrificing my freedom, even self-esteem, I just want to do what I would like. Teaching Climbing < Laundry >

Adventure ~ part of my life Nalaka,

my best,

die-hard friend in Switzerland from Sri Lanka

We hate climbing very much!! Fog, Rain & Cold!! Wearing the bulky, slippery boots to climb. Touching the icy, cold rock to up. We said "Fuck, shit, damn" a zillion times. We promised do not climb any more in future.

G채llihorn (2284m) multipitch routes


Mt Bire (2502m)

Free climbing without rope. But.....I love the feeling....scared, unsecured and nerved. climbing learn to control emotion!! good lesson from Kim (AU)

K i m

, f r o m Australia. We met from Summitpost. com. Amazing, skillful climber


Pioneering experience, climbing up with simple equipments. For me, Via ferrata cannot satisfy my sensation of Adventure. However, it is a great game for person from giant plateau~ K i n g a … . . a s I r e m e m b e r, shaking, slowing, crying, yelling foul language in Hungarian……. All made me feel more scared than Kinga. However, the first lesson of adventure, understand o u r o n e s e l f . A f te r wa r d , we continued to do stupid together.

Via ferrata

(Italian for "road with irons". Plural vie ferrate. In German, Klettersteig) is a mountain route which is equipped with fixed cables, stemples, ladders, and bridges.

Kinga, from Hungary, My best friend met in Central Asia


Gorner_Glacier

Let do something mountaineers will do - Matterhorn. Got two days off to visit Zermatt. Climbing Riffelhorn (2927m), up is easy, descend is shit- bad idea. lost one quickdraw, me jam inside crack, the rope got far away the vertical wall and !! nalaka was far away down. Both life were held by tiny quickdraw helpless and holpless. The storm was coming meanwhile. nearly call rega and dead experience. All were the reason we love climbing, take risk, changeling limited, control emotion and return home safety!

Matterhorn


Alps tiny flowers

Containing a numberless of legends, teaching me how miracle of nature power


Happiness animals

Solo Mountaineering : Wildstrubel (3243)

Ok, I plan few weeks already....But still cannot find a partner. I checked the weather forecast and Geo-feature of Plaine Morte. Before the day is freezing night after several raining, I beat it is the time I should go !! Wake up at 7:00 am. 10 am started to go Mt Tothorn then, go down Glacier alone. Very scary. ... Met a lot of crevasses and step on the weak ice surface... I need to use my ice axe to check every steps !!!! 12:00 arrive the bottom of Mt Wildstrubel. Then, Start to create my own route to summit in rocky feature. 2:00 Summit, the weather was very windy and cloudy. Even my footprint in few minute was disappeared. So, retreat back to bottom, at 3:00 pm. Pass the Glacier, where was much stable under the cloudy weather. Arrived Mt Tothorn at 4:30 pm. Hitch-hiking back to Center. Carry 20 kg in 16 km up/down 500m is not fun. But good training. I think I am prepare Mt Blanc for sure.


Satisfaction of one’s curiosity is one of the greatest sources of happiness in life
