    My personal 2023 highlight is actually from way back in 2022, when I went bouldering in Berlin with my sister. It was my first time trying it out, it was really challenging! 😆😅 Who knows, maybe I’ll give it another shot this new year. 😎

    My highlight of 2023 was sending my first 7A “Le jeu du toit” in Fontainebleau on an amazing weekend trip together with Pjotr.

    My highlight was to start climbing for the first time in my life in september! Learning everything about climbing and trying the basics was amazing. I'm looking forward to climb way more in 2024.

    Mijn hoogtepunt van 2023 was voor de eerste keer sinds mijn 5 jarige klimcarrière naar Fontainebleau te gaan! Super toffe dagen gehad, hard geklommen, 24 routes op 4 dagen! Niet altijd even harde routes maar soit! Mijn laagtepunt van 2023 was dan weer blessures oplopen waardoor ik gedurende lange tijd ook geen progressie maakte en bijna stopte met klimmen. Maar sinds kort weer een klik gemaakt en ben weer aan het genieten van de sport! Toffe video, keep up the good work guys! 💪🏻😁♥️
