[vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”139327″]De Sus<\/strong> was founded by a community of friends, Andrei, Alex, Nicu and George, who share the passion of living in the mountains: guides, sportsmen, adventurers, amateur or professional researchers, all aiming to know better and also to share the know-how of living freely in Romania\u2019s mountains with anyone else.<\/p>\n

Our main focus is on rock climbing and off piste skiing<\/a> but we also bike<\/a> our way around and always search for new passages by \u201crandom trekking<\/a>\u201d and scrambling<\/a> in this such familiar yet immensily wild landscape that our Carpathians prove to be.<\/p>\n

Also, one of the highlights of exploring our mountains is the everpresent encounters we make on the way, be it wildlife and its ubiquitos traces, or the vigorous presence of the people of the mountains<\/a> in their natural home.<\/p>\n

We can be your guides on organised endeavours, provide you with roadbooks, or make suggestions for selfguided tours of our country.<\/p>\n

Our services are entirely custom made, so feel free to contact us.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image media=”240″ media_width_percent=”100″ uncode_shortcode_id=”191273″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”114431″]<\/p>\n

Nicolae enjoys sport climbing and offpiste skiing the most, but also trekking, mountaineering and mountainbiking. Just like all the other membres of DeSus, he is also a devoted mushroom forager.\u00a0He is defined by curiosity and perfectionism and also by a relentless quest for\u00a0 new ways of looking at things, be it mountains or people.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”466″ media_width_percent=”100″ uncode_shortcode_id=”198311″ title=”`{` Nicu”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”236″ media_width_percent=”100″ uncode_shortcode_id=”787292″ title=”`{` Alex”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”150050″]<\/p>\n

Alexandru Olteanu<\/h2>\n

Born in Bicaz, Neamt County on the 15th<\/sup> of June 2000, currently living in Brasov, Transylvania.<\/p>\n

Graduated highschool in 2019, member of AGMR (Association of Mountain Guides of Romania) since April 2022 and ski instructor since December 2021.\u00a0Currently preparing to go to the Faculty of Medicine at Bucharest Unversity.<\/p>\n

His strongest passions are climbing and skiing and he enjoys them because they make him feel healthy. As these sports are\u00a0 complex outdoors activities, involving both physical and mental strength, they keep him grounded and balanced.<\/p>\n

His involvement in extreme sports since childhood made him start skiing thinking that it is the best replacement for inline skating during winter. He learned how to ski and\u00a0 progress came fast considering his mindset to push his limits. Later he discovered the poetic part in ski touring in which making his own path and doing turns in fresh powder snow is a way for him to unwind.<\/p>\n

The desire to share the joy of skiing and climbing in a safe environment made him join AGMR (Mountain Guides Association of Romania). Thanks to his drive and involvement he became an instructor for the beginner mountain guides before his graduation. This made him realise how important it is to maintain strong communication skills amongst a team when being a leader and to stay calm and aware in dangerous situations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”680531″]<\/p>\n

The second most important for him comes the offpiste skiing, a passion that has constantly grown in the last ten years, especially since teaming with and learning a lot from Nicolae Durnac, also part of De Sus.<\/p>\n

Trekking and MTB are filling the rest of\u00a0 the picture, while wandering through uncharted forest, peaks and valleys, quite often in search of mushrooms, is a constant thread in his everyday life.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
