Guide & Passionate Naturalist

  1. The DNA of the peaks: Growing up in Chamonix forged my need to explore and understand wide open spaces.
  2. Sharing through movement: As a mountain guide, I create bridges between the effort of hiking and the discovery of nature. My goal is to help you experience the full beauty of our environment.
  3. The ornithological epiphany: It was in the East that I began to map out routes dedicated to birds. Today, I put this expertise at the service of your curiosity.
  4. Adventure within sight: I firmly believe that the spectacular is hidden in the everyday. From the nearby forest to your own garden, I help you open your eyes to this invisible world that is just waiting to be heard.
