Last week: # 800metres through # cheile_sugaului #via_ferrata | The coolest thing is that we had Ticu Lacatusu as our guide, the first romanian to reach Everest in 1995. Event powered by Rubik Hub Piatra Neamt. Thanks for pictures Alex Vlad Alexandru #mynewhobby #rockclimbing #viaverata #adrenalinejunkie #highaltitudeexperiencea
The event was called Mentor's Retreat, an event powered by RubikHub. Rubik Hub is a non-profit initiative whose mission is to provide real support to entrepreneurs. Rubik Hub is powered by NE Regional Development Agency, based in Piatra Neamt-Romania. It looks amazing, just take a look here:
Back in April this year I was a mentor at one of their 3 days Bootcamp program, helping students in their entrepreneurial journey from idea to business. It was a great experience, my first one as a mentor.
So as a reward for all mentors, RubikHub created this event where we can better connect, exchange ideas, experience, business knowledge, etc. It was a day full of workshops, webinars, etc. The cool part happened the next day, when we did rock climbing up to 800 meters ( ~2624 feet). Such a cool experience. There were moments when I was looking down and literally felt the adrenaline rushing through my veins. ( I know, 800 meters is nothing compared to a few thousand, but for me, being my first, it was awesome).
So here are some pictures:
On the other side of the mountain, there was a nice place, and we remained there for almost an hour, as it was such a breathtaking view:
So if you can, be part of your community, from time to time do some pro bono work for your startup community, as you never know, maybe your community will reward you in ways you never imagine:)
With love,
