Nalini Nadkarni 
…"Ever since I was a little kid I liked climbing trees.  It was a world I could escape to.  No grown ups climb trees, so it was my little world where I could go up and read. It’s been 17 years and every time I put on my Jumars and go up a rope it’s that same feeling of exhilaration, of what will I find today??”

“I realized at that moment, my first rope climb, I knew where I was going for the rest of my life.  I was going up to the canopy.” -N. Nadkarni, Heroes film
