I'm a keen traveler, who's always dreaming of and planning the next trip. For life's ordinaries, I haven't been able to realize any really long journeys yet, but I'm dreaming of the opportunity to break off from my regular work and to explore the world for a little longer than few weeks at a time. My interest towards mountaineering has been evolving over some years now, but it's been only recently that I've had a chance to actually start making preparations for completing my wish-list. And who knows, maybe one day I'll be climbing the Everest too :)

Jebbert Everest would be awesome to do. I could definitely be ready in 3 years it is just money that is a problem. I intended on doing it without Sherpa support because it would be cheaper and feel more like a personal goal. I also want to do it without oxygen.
I would definitely be up for it in a few years. I also heard about Island Peak from a climbing friend. If your looking for anyone on that one I will be interested as well.
Here is my email, send me any more info you may have on the Everest trip and more exact prices.
Sunny Hi Ulrike!
I'm planning to climb Mt Blanc next summer, most likely sometime between July-September. I don't have much mountaineering experience yet, but there are several businesses that will guide you up there and you'll learn the skills as you climb, so I'm taking the whole challenge as a learning opportunity. Let me know if you're still up to this and maybe we could team up!
Sunny Hi Todd, your plan sounds impressive. I'm personally fascinated by the thought of doing the same one day, but not sure if I'm able join yet in 2013. So far I've been just hiking in the Alps, but would like to move on to some more challenging routes in the future. Anyhow, I'm going to take a course on ice climbing / winter mountaineering next winter and will keep on training mountaineering skills next summer too. I'm based in northern Europe so keep me informed when your Mt Blanc trip starts to take shape, I'd be glad to join!
