The vast majority of my colorful, interesting and life-changing experiences are travel related. It just so happens, historically, as they say.
I am 5–6 years old and together with my father I explore all the nearest interesting places, gullies, woods and tracts. I see my first interesting plants, birds, landscapes and the first "that very" feeling of curiosity to the unknown and unseen that should open behind that corner....
I'm 17 and everything has remained stable in those interests and inclinations. So it makes sense – a geography department with a strong hiking club attached to it. True, not immediately difficult hikes were given to me, but since then one important trait has remained – to know well, as they say the last in the group, what is "difficult for me" and to take it into account, always. Then there were Crimean Mountains, Carpathians, and eventually organized independently.
All these interests and hobbies, love for mountains, nature and traveling changed, transformed, acquired another meaning and format, but never disappeared forever. Perhaps, such things happen forever, in whatever form they are realized. Because if you have already tried once to look at the fogs in the valleys, to pull blueberries straight from a bush, to chase some salamander between beeches, to get out of breath on the ascent, and in general to live a whole rich separate life for a few days and to gain some new experience and impressions – how can you forget it?
And no less pleasant than feeling it all yourself, it can also be an opportunity to make others feel the same way. And also treat what surrounds us (including in the mountains) with attention, love and with the understanding that all this should be protected. I love this feeling, when people want to return to the places of their first journeys again, and somehow I am involved in this) When people's eyes do not twitch from terrible memories, but only want to return for those emotions and experiences, to discover new routes, to savor dinner by the fire again, to photograph landscapes and live life to the fullest.
