Mountain
life
Perhaps one of the things I like to do the most, is climb mountains.
I grew up in Caracas, Venezuela, where “El Avila” mountain is just walking minutes away from where I lived.

Pico Bolívar
In 2017, I set off with my high school mountaineering group to climb Venezuela’s tallest mountain, Pico Bolivar (4,978 m).
After several days of hiking, we set off our camping spot at the base camp of the mountain.
Unfortunately the next early morning the whole camping crew woke up shocked since a team member who had suffered from altitude sickness all along almost died since his lungs where getting water inside. Thankfully, he was a doctor, and so he managed to identify the issue quickly and within record time, he was already lowered to city altitude and away from any pain or danger.
Unfortunately for us this meant that the trip had to be cancelled.
