Hey man,
I get that you're probs a bit hesitant/shy to explore with people who think you're inferior/inexperienced due to your age, but I can tell you that UEGA is just a friendly bunch of people sharing their passion for exploring! I sincerely doubt that many people on here give a damn about your age (unless it's for legal purposes i.e. to do with being a caregiver for said underage explorer). Reach out and explore with any willing and able person you can find!
