My Dad, the Globetrotter!
So my dad is off on a wild trip indeed - to the exotic, beautiful, remote and COLD land of Antarctica this winter. He leaves in about a week's time for an entire summer (the seasons get reverse up there), about 3.5 months worth of stay. Pretty proud of him we all are, not to mention just a little nervous given that Antarctica is a little more than just another trip overseas. But hey, I'll shut up about it and let the man himself fill you in. Check his diary out at http://himalayanadventurer.blogspot.com. Wish him luck thru the next week of crazy prepwork.

I'm a recent transplant to the San Francisco Bay area. I moved here after 7 fun years in the beautiful South-eastern US. I'm a product manager for PayPal, and help improve customer experience for PayPal users.
I grew up backpacking in the mighty Himalayas. However I have shelved aspirations to scale tall peaks in favor rock-climbing (shorter, but harder, but safer). My favored style is sport-climbing and I have climbed all over the world, and hope to keep discovering amazing climbing the world has to offer.
I work hard during the week, and climb outdoors most weekends. I also explore the amazing culture that San Francisco has to offer.

Nice dude - good luck to your dad. My brother-in-law is hoping to eventually trek out to Antarctica. I've never had the urge for that particular level of cold, but more power to their sense of adventure! Hope all is going well man-
