"Mountaineering is not a sport, it is a way of life" – so say people who have been in the mountains at least once. Back in 1995, when I joined the children's mountaineering and climbing section by chance, I had no idea that mountains would become my disease, my way of life!
Year by year the geography of my ascents grew, I perfected my climbing skills, making more and more difficult ascents. For today I have ascended difficult climbing routes in the Caucasus, Georgia, Pamir, Tien Shan and the Himalayas. Including new, earlier unpassed routes; ascents to all the "seven-thousanders" of the CIS; oxygen-free ascents to the "eight-thousanders" – Makalu, Manaslu and Gasherbrum II.
Training at the Central School of Instructors in 2011 and the great amount of knowledge accumulated during expeditions and trips enables me to work confidently and professionally with groups of climbers of different skill level, from beginners to masters. And stories about my amazing adventures in the mountains will be very handy for a cup of hot tea before bedtime:)

It was wonderful) I attended the "mountaineering school, basic level" program. It was led by two guides, Volodymyr Roshko and Anna Mysyshyn. There's a lot of information about Volodymyr online, and it was actually the reviews about him that made us choose this route. But in addition, there was a wonderful instructor, Anna Mysyshyn. Despite her young age, her skill level is quite high. Guys, wishing you luck and all the best) I will definitely go again if I have the chance to join. I set a goal and achieved it))

Review of the climb to Peak Lenin and Peak Khan Tengri
The climbing program was not easy. We had to manage to complete acclimatization (it was especially important to spend a night at Camp 3) during a short period of good weather, rest and recover before the start of the next weather window, and, of course, manage to make the ascent before the weather turned bad again. And we succeeded. Our guide Volodymyr Roshko took these weather whims into account and built the program correctly. After completing the acclimatization, the climb to Camp 3 turned out to be quite comfortable in terms of how we felt, with symptoms of altitude sickness barely bothering us. The actual ascent to the summit, of course, was not as easy as the climb to Camp 3 (after all, near-seven-thousand-meter altitudes make themselves known), but it's clear that without prior acclimatization we would hardly have been able to reach it and descend safely. Volodymyr's huge experience in high-altitude mountaineering and his knowledge of the mountains allowed us to overcome all the difficulties that arose on the route. Volodymyr showed himself to be a true high-altitude professional and a real friend who understands and supports you in difficult situations. Thanks to him and the Kuluar club for a successfully conducted Peak Lenin climbing program. And yes, I can confidently recommend Volodymyr as a guide in the world of high mountains.
