I realise that Adventure is measured by different standards by different people, there is no universal standard. For example going to a climbing wall the adventure for my friend was to test himself on the latest high-grade routes, for me it was all about learning to trust my rope at height and trying 5 more moves when I reached the height I felt comfortable at. Heights are not where I feel most comfortable at but I really enjoyed climbing at the wall. For others it’s just another activity.
For me adventure is about experiencing something new and achieving a personal goal. Adventure comes in many forms, big & small, can be found anywhere and you can choose to experience it or not. So look forward to your next adventure whatever it may be.
