Climbing is not so hard - B2 Article

Climbing is not so hard

When I was a boy I sometimes climbed with my brother, as a child it was a very exciting experience but I never did it as a leader.

Many years afterwards I met a colleague that was going to climb, and after chatting, I began going with him. At the beginning we went to an indoors gym, what is called "bouldering", but after a few months we started to go outdoors and climbed with ropes.

I like the way that climbing teach you how to really focus, especially when you're the climb leader, otherwise you get paralized by fear. Among all the types of climb I prefer rock climbing, mainly multi-pitch routes because it's a team sport indeed.

After 6 years I still work with that guy and nowadays we aren't only colleagues we are climb partners.


Tell us about a leisure-time activity you really enjoy.

- Why do you enjoy it so much?

This makes it sound like your colleague was not a regular climber when you were chatting or that he was just about to go for a climbing session.

I like the way that climbing teaches you how to really focus, especially when you're the climb leader, otherwise you get paralized by fear.

Among all the types of climb I prefer rock climbing, mainly multi-pitch routes, because it's indeed a team sport indeed.

My correction makes it sound rather Victorian. I would personally use 'certainly' instead of indeed
