Andriy Duda
Founder and team leader of GRA
I love mountains and traveling - it inspires me to get up in the morning. I once heard a saying: “the biggest risk is not taking any risk at all” - it seems like such a trifle, but it's what always convinces me to go further and try something new. Now I already have a small collection of mountains from Ukraine, Georgia, Turkey, Tanzania, Kyrgyzstan, Austria, Morocco, Romania... but the main mountains are still ahead.
In the past, I used to shoot, so I have a great love for weapons. I served in the army - it allowed me to reboot and change my life a bit. I am an optimist by nature and a marketer by profession. I love cheesecakes and cocoa, that's about it, but we'll get to know each other better in the mountains!
