When we were creating the GRA project, we had a clear understanding that we needed to travel more and give those who are just starting to conquer their first Plast the opportunity to do so. I had quite a lot of experience traveling in the Carpathians because I was in Plast.

With GRA, a whole world of mountains outside of Ukraine began to open up for me. I'm an active musician myself, so I like to perceive the mountains as beauty in their colors and variability. It's nice to sit down with a flute in a meadow and play movie tunes under the sun, or in the evening around a campfire after a delicious dinner, singing songs with a ukulele. When many strangers are on the same wavelength with you at those moments, then it's worth continuing!
