Decided to go to Milano, Italy with some friends this weekend and could not help but remember seeing videos of the great parkour hotspots in Milano! I had to look them up and do my best to train in Milano! On Saturday night just before I got ready to go out and enjoy the Milano nightlife... I visited the MilanoMonkeys crew's website just to drop them a message and tell them I was going to be training on their turf... and to my

Woahhhh, never done a blog post before. Okay, initial shock has subsided.

I'm spending this semester studying abroad in South Africa, and most of my time will actually be spent in the bush, away from people and anything remotely parkour-related. However, I decided to spend a week's time vacationing in Johannesburg, and when I wasn't sick and jet-lagged, I managed to get out and parkour a bit.
