Hi and welcome to Wall Walkers!

I am originally from and grew up in Brisbane but went to Vancouver, Canada when I was 20 where I spent almost 5 years in total.  After that, I moved to Shanghai, China where I spent the next 7/8 years.

I love new challenges and adventure, two qualities which I'm sure drew me to Climbing!

I first started climbing in China at indoor bouldering/climbing gyms but quickly progressed to outdoor sport climbing when a friend introduced me to Lion Rock in Linan, close to Hangzhou (临安区龙上狮子岩).

LongShang (name of the village) is a beautiful little village with an amazing bamboo forest.  It comes straight up to the base of the climbing wall as you climb.  In certain spots, you climb straight out of the forest to get an amazing view over the top of the bamboo and straight down into the valley and village.

I met many great people and climbers here and was sad to leave, however, I am now looking forward to my new adventure with Wall Walkers.  

Come down and say hi.

Hi, great to have you on our site and hope you drop into our Capalaba location.

I grew up in a mountainous area in the middle of China as a result my life has always been strongly connected to nature.  I loved adventuring around the mountains and observing nature during its different seasons.

For almost a decade I have worked as a landscape architect and urban designer and enjoy the wonderfulness of connecting people through space, either indoors or outdoors.

I was introduced to climbing by friends and it fit nicely into my lifestyle.  I found climbing provided a great way to explore new places while challenging me to push my limits. The sense of achievement after completing a difficult climb gave me a great sense of self-confidence.

I have taken all my knowledge and passion for design and incorporated this into Wall Walkers, I hope you like the little space we created and would love to hear from you in person or on social media!
