Hello!

Point Lobos State ParkLittle Grunts: guttural noises of the minuscule variety, typically heard when completing big and tough rock climbing moves.

Hello! I’m Paulina! I’m 5′ tall and excited about everything. Especially climbing and the outdoors. 80% of my wardrobe consists of tacticool & technical clothing. I’m kind of a gear junkie; not sure why I need 50 down jackets, but I do. (For the record, I only have one… so far.)

By (week) day, I hang out at Practice Fusion with some cool folks and cute pups in San Francisco. By (week) night, I’m sweating like a pig at my climbing gym. You can find me trekking through forests and the city, or traversing rock walls & boulders on the weekend.

I have a Fitbit and I’m obsessed with it! So I’ve included some Fitbit stats, just for kicks. Have one too? Be my Fitbit friend here.

Welcome to Little Grunts, the gear review & adventure blog of a small Asian girl. Yes, I am as spazzy and random as this About page. Also, I love cats.

Hi, I’m Paulina! A full time adventurer with a day job, I’m a firm believer in the 5-9, and maximizing every second of being out of office. I didn't grow up outdoorsy. This little corner of the internet chronicles my trials and tribulations of heading outside. Learn more about me or just say hi!
