Simon, given the total randomness of your possibile destinations, and the actual possibilities of being kidnapped, robbed, killed, arrested for a myriad of reasons in many of them, to save you and your beloved ones from yourself, I officially invite you to spend your vacation at my place.
You will find iron, plastic, food and booze. You may also get to touch some rock (not with me).
You may end up kidnapped but only by myself because I need money.
Think about it.

Etxauri would be perfect in Jan.

I was told my a well seasoned traveller to Spain that everyone clears out of Etxauri in January because the rain comes in.

I’ll drop Eder a message to get his take

I think we should all chip in to send Shark over to Nibs place. Whip him into shape for the 2022 season...

Have you been to Sardinia? Absolutely mind blowing rock quality with crags in literally every direction and incredible multipitches. Massive caves. Loads of vert-tech. Granite, trad and bolted and bouldering. Really chilled out culture and small but very psyched climbing community. Just don't call them Italian!

Hi Mischa, Thanks, yes a couple of times. Would be keen to go back especially for multi pitch. We’ve decided on Basque area / Etxauri and if weather craps out we can drive elsewhere.

Nice one. I couldn't believe how good the multis were when there last year. Verdon quality rock but with more features and zero polish. Incredible! And so much potential for FA.  :w00t:
