Looking for a Climbing Mentor

Im a 24y.o Male, I've just got back from a year in Canada working, climbing and travelling.
I've climbed sport twice both of them 5.9 in skaha penticton and did a bit of outdoor top roping in squamish BC. Indoor climbing i range between 17 - 22

Looking for a mentor, someone who i can learn from, listen and watch. I've got x2 60m rope, slings, webbing, carabiners and a lot of enthusiasm.

Ideally looking to learn how to;
- Setup anchors and top rope
- Have a disciplined approach to lead climbing
- Eventually learn how to trad climb

If your looking for a disciple to pass down some knowledge im your guy.

The answer is to go to a crag and find one.
They won't chase you down and ask to mentor you.

Fly up to Queensland, lets go to Frog.
We'll do all the climbs that Wendy says has shitty anchors so you can learn to do it properly.
