His passion for mountains drove Angelo Lobina<\/em><\/strong>, 58 years old from Nuoro, Sardinia, to climb the highest peaks in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He started to climb the seven highest mountains in the world<\/strong> at the age of 54 and  completed all the climbs within four years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Seven Summits<\/strong> <\/a>are the highest mountains on earth, one for each of the seven continents.  Reaching the summits of all of them is regarded as a mountaineering challenge, first achieved on April, the 30th,1985 by Richard Bass<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project re-named by Angelo Lobina, Sardegna Seven Summits<\/em><\/a>, highlights the challenge for an islander  to be successful in alpine climbing. He is, in fact, the first and only Sardinian who climbed all the Seven Summits<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angelo is the first Sardinian who climbed Mount Everest<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mount Everest, with its 8,848 m (29,029 ft) is the highest mountain on planet earth above the sea level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was curious to know why he did it. Was it just for the glory or to understand something deeper inside him? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To my surprise Angelo\u2019s most nostalgic moments didn\u2019t take place in the last meters of his Everest climb but in the emptiness of the icy space he found in Alaska and Antarctica. He had the chance to see how small he was in comparison to those vast spaces. That should be, I believe, the real reason for modern explorations: not to conquer lands, but to understand our place in this world. Being ready to step back when we have to and admire life without altering nature to our needs and desires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The silence given by the empty spaces allowed Angelo to look inside of him, to learn from his soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embracing that kind of silence also means listening to the voice of nature, avoiding the artificial noise invented by humans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are exploring something deep inside you. The outside is only the chance to grow inside<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
