As New Year approaches, it is not only important to look back and reflect on all the changes and our mistakes and successes from this year, but it is also equally as essential to look ahead and start setting some goals for next year. Chiang Mai Rock Climbing Adventures is a firm believer in steady and constant progression, and that is why we think that it’s important to set yearly goals for ourselves to strive toward. We ask some of our CMRCA family members’ about their New Year’s Resolution for 2015 and below are their answers.
