Camilo at the peak with agap2!

“My project is called EOS Project. It consists in making the Seven Summits, i.e. climbing the highest peaks of each continent in order to promote a Crowdfunding project for a humanitarian association in Colombia. In particular, I have engineering students working in design offices to solve problems in Colombia, the country where I was born.

I started this month with Elbrus, the highest summit in Russia. The particularity of my project is that it will be done without a plane. The idea is to lead a real expedition in alpine style. To carry my own things. It’s a real challenge for me because I’ve only been climbing for two years. To physically prepare myself, every Friday evening, I pack my bag and go to the Alps for the weekend to go mountaineering, climbing or ski mountaineering. It is thanks to all these weekends between 3000 m and more than 4000 m that I am acclimatising to consider this challenge in Russia.

Since I arrived at agap2, I have been made to feel supported. There is a sense of community in the company. That’s why I thought about asking agap2 to support me in this project. Starting a project is always very scary. But don’t hesitate to talk to friends, colleagues, family … and try to make your dream come true.”
