Accept my apologies if you have read this before as I've posted it to similar climbing forums. _____________________________________________________________________________ This is my first day of gathering info. So humor me please: My girlfriend and I are seriously considering emigrating to Australia. (More accurately: we will, as soon as all paperwork is completed and local property sold) In preparation we'll be traveling to 16 Dec 2010: Melbourne 21 Dec 2010: Canberra 26 Dec 2010: Sydney 1 Jan 2011: Brisbane 6 Jan 2011: Back to Cape Town. Me: I climb both Sport and Trad, and have opened new routes in both. 23 (Oz grade) highest Redpoint. Sport. 20 / 21 comfort grade. 18 / 19 reasonable on-sight grade on both Trad and Sport. 13 years trad experience (continuous) 3 years wilderness search and rescue involvement. We'll be traveling light (hopefully sport gear, maybe only shoes) The questions: 1) What areas would you recommend? 2) Is anybody willing to show us around (We'll be more than happy to return the favor should you ever visit South Africa) 3) Any South Africans reading this and living there care to meet up? 4) A long shot: I'm a 33 year old architect. I'll be looking for architectural employment once there. Any climber-architect willing to see me for an interview?
