✨ I wrote my first ever blog! ✨
Completely unintentional, but Priya Kochhar’s dissertation compelled me to do something very out of character.
In the blog, I reflect on the powerful insights from Priya’s research into women’s mountaineering memoirs. It gave me space to think about my own experiences as a female climber, and how even a small increase in awareness can help create a more inclusive climbing community and world. Her work helped me put words to things I have felt but haven’t always been able to express.
I’d love you to not only read the blog, but also, if you can, explore Priya’s dissertation for yourself and make your own reflections on gender dynamics in climbing — and how these dynamics often extend far beyond the rock.
Veronica ❤️

🎥 Lamia‑san assis, Fontainebleau.
One of the most beautiful lines I climbed this trip! Engaging and delicate movement, and all about balance. ✨
🧗♂️ Every move demanded focus, every position felt like art in motion. This is why we climb!

I love the first move on More Fun 6B! It feels so good coordinating locking into the heel, pushing with the other leg and engaging the arm, whilst doing this with speed (…for me) and arrive at the next hold with accuracy.
Coordination is key to graceful, fluid and effortless movement. It is what connects strength to movement. Without it, power lacks purpose—flow breaks, precision drops, and injury risk rises. It’s not just how hard you pull, but how well it all comes together.
For me this move is a perfect example of coordinating movement with speed. It’s one of my weaknesses but it felt so good when it clicked.

Climbing is a series of unfolding chapters, each leaving its mark. This ascent was purely a direct conversation with the rock, unclouded by the usual mental complexities of bouldering at Fairhead. The height and unforgiving landings often demand psychological resilience, but this time, movement and connection took precedence.
