My name is Omar Samra, I quit uninspiring jobs and start companies during financial crisis’ and then name them after exotic fruits. I also specialize in dragging myself and heavy objects to high and cold places. When I’m not working on Wild Guanabana, I’m on a mountain somewhere, climbing something snowy or hanging out somewhere remote. When I’m working, I’m designing some of the funnest journeys to the world’s most inspiring places for anyone out there looking for the extraordinary!

Extremely average high-altitude climber. My idea of fun involves steep walls, sub-zero temps, and generally not dying in the mountains. I come from a rock climbing background but have recently discovered my love for the Alpine. I’ve climbed in the Himalayas, Caucasus, Atlas, Sinai, and recently my neighbour’s garden fence to rescue my cat.

It all started in Africa when I got the so-called addiction to mountains and wildlife. Being an animal lover, my first trip was as a volunteer in a wildlife sanctuary in Namibia, closely after that, my first mountain in Tanzania – Kilimanjaro. Since then, all I wanted to do was finance for more and more adventures either with animals or on mountains. Being in nature is where I find peace, happiness and serenity. My dog is the most important thing in my life but he is also very fat so my ultimate goal is to put him on diet and find a way to take him with me to mountain tops!
