Hiking Buddies

Irina is an incredibly fast, strong and kind hiker. She can do easily 2000+ gain for two day, and she takes great photis. Thank you for coming back to do the peak with me again, motivating us on the way, and keeping me company ;)

I think she is super experienced in mountaineering. She is super considerate of the group. I on the other hand need to prep a few years to come close to keeping up with her. Would definitely hike with her again if I prep myself.
