Climber Story: Saliha Grine - Dynamite Starfish

To start, tell us a little bit about yourself

Hi there, I'm Saliha! Well, I'm a French girl living near Paris. I work in a transport logistics hub and I'm turning 32 soon.

How did you start climbing?

I got into climbing because of my twin sister. I'm so glad that I followed her to the gym, but now I'm completely addicted!

What impact has climbing had on your life?

Climbing is so unique. I knew immediately when my sister took me to the gym that I was going to love it. It's been 10 years now and I've never looked back! Climbing has introduced me to some pretty amazing people. I love being part of a community where I can share thoughts and good moments while having fun. To be honest, sometimes I wonder what my purpose was in life before climbing 😹

What are some other things you do that you find most fulfilling?

Oh, that's tough because I enjoy so many things. A few include traveling, eating amazing food, learning, reading books, listening to music, festivals, meeting new people from everywhere. But most importantly, I love life's simple things like sharing smiles and discovering new places .

If you could tell the world one thing, what would it be?

Stop wars.

Favorite thing about Dynamite Starfish?

I love your designs. They are original and the clothes are super warm!
