Road to Elbrus

My Scholarship entry - Elbrus - the highest mountain of Europe

My name is Volodymyr.I’m from Ukraine and from early childhood I was inspired by persons who travel a lot.After entering the university where I’ve found people with a similar outlook on life and from this point I began exploring my country and a whole world. I'm very passionate about nature and mountains in particular, so my dream is to climb highest mountains on all the continents.In addition, have a great desire to have around-the-world trip to see all fascinating difference of our planet.
Capturing beautiful moments of my travel experiences and life is one of my biggest inspirations. I also like to present my photos to the other people and tell stories about my journeys that can encourage them to visit such outstanding places.Ability to see one of such incredible places, in particular Peruvian Amazonia, make beautiful pictures of it and learn from one of the best wildlife photographer are the main factors for me to apply this scholarship. Among those criteria the most significant for me is an opportunity to get practical knowledge about photography. This unique experience can help me to improve my skills and maybe, in the future, become a part of National Geographic team.
