HUMANS OF MOUNTAINEERING (2/12) I joined mountaineering because I have always loved the great outdoors. You can learn so much about yourself when you step out of your comfort zone. It’s very different from other sports because the technical aspects involved adds to the challenge. My Kazakhstan Technical Mountaineering Course (TMC) was challenging because we had to cook everything ourselves and it was much colder. It was a very independent trip. Mountaineering is a step up from trekking alone and I want it to be a part of my life so that I can constantly challenge and learn more about myself. Wang Chiew Hui, Year 2 Law. Projects, MIR 18.

HUMANS OF MOUNTAINEERING (1/12) “I was already into trekking before I joined NUS. Mountaineering appealed to my inner desire because it was one step above that. When I visited the booth at the Student Life Fair, they were very accommodating to me, “You don’t have to worry, just show up for training and we’ll shape you up.” And that was the beginning of my 3 year journey here in MIR. There were 14 people in my Technical Mountaineering Course and I remember having diarrhoea and food poisoning right at the start of it. But even that could not change the fact that we were in the Himalayas. The view was great and the journey was one that will stick with me for life.” Shaun Whitmarsh, Year 4 Business. Projects, MIR 18.
