| 16 Oct | Symplegades | Opera 6b, Musical 6a+, Mike’s Bike 6a |
| 19 Oct | Arginonta, Arhi | Galopoula 6c, Killian 6b, and another 6b next to it. Couldn’t finish Galopoula so top roped it without take. Still scared of heights and exposure, leading and falling. Killian was slabby and scary. Well bolted in general though. |

Wow, Kalymnos. I’ve heard too many things about Kalymnos over the past year that I just had to go. And so glad I did. Riding the scooter around the island was amazing, the weather, the food (the FOOD!), the climbing and the view … my favourite so far.
I had to cut the trip short due to family emergency but will definitely come back for more climbing in the future.
Next on my list are: Japan, Chamonix (or France in general), Frankenjura, Spain (mainland), Leonidio, Albania
