Friends,
I've spent the last year lurking in the shadows on this list, drawing inspiration from the hilarious and awesome trip reports and updates sent out by Eugene, Rich, and many others. This morning, I decided it was probably about time to make my own contribution. I'm hoping to seed psyche and share learnings in less than 250 words. Here goes:
When I graduated in 2009, I was getting on a plane to Europe to climb in France and Spain for three months, and then headed to BCG to make money and become famous. Lessons learned: Rock climbing in other countries is awesome. Working in an office 80 hours a week and living out of a hotel is less awesome.
After six months, I quit my job to start a business and climb full time with the help of my sponsors. I spent 2010 climbing in Europe, training in San Francisco, and exploring the immaculate granite of Yosemite and Bishop in the Sierras.
In November, Five Ten Shoes and Bluewater Ropes paid to send me and Ethan Pringle to Yangshuo, China to explore the thousands of extra-terrestrial limestone towers that rise out of the jungle there. We established first ascents, bolted new projects, and climbed classic routes. While we were there, Ethan established the hardest line in China: Spicy Dumpling (5.14d). Between the two of us, we sent every 5.14 in the country (12 routes in all). We climbed huge waves of overhanging limestone and swung from stalactites on the underbellies of giant freestanding arches.
I flew back from Beijing a few days ago, and have been publishing pictures and videos as fast as I can. I'm attaching a couple images to this email, and you can watch a couple short videos of our trip here:

That's it for now. I'm probably headed to Hueco Tanks and Kentucky in the next few months, then I'm flying to Europe and South Africa on behalf of Five Ten and Bluewater. If you want to climb rocks or hang out abroad, shoot me an email.
Until then, go climb, hike, run, swim, bike. Whatever you love. It's the right thing to do.
