I like this blog. His creative juices induces liters of nosebleeds for me. But this guy writes with so much style and logic I wish he’d blog again soon. He’s an orthopedic surgeon-academician by the way.

I’m proud of The Blog Rounds and the impressive bloggers who made it all possible.

These experiences I won’t forget- surviving a grueling climb or this one in Mt. Matutum.
