À propos de moi

CURRENT MISSION

be happy and also trying to covert my passion into my job

ABOUT ME

I love nature and especially mountains. Paramo and volcanoes of Andes have become my passion. I used to be a competitive runner and still train a lot when possible.
After the university I worked few years in multinational company but luckily found enough power to escape the stereotypes and changed life for financial wealth. I spent two years traveling in South America.
If I am not hiking, climbing mountains, running, I might be drinking beer for example :-)
Currently I have a lot of work with starting my travel agency focused on South America.

Centres d'intérêt

running&sports, hiking, climbing the mountains, travelling, languages, news, books and when I am fed up with those than also thinks like party, beer, etc.
While traveling I am interested in meeting local people rather than tourists. Get to know local places rather than LP destinations.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

recently discovered: Mario Vargas Llosa (El Sueño del Celta!!!) and much much more
movies I don´t watch very often - Mulholland Drive, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Man on the Moon, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump.
I like the life too much to spend it watching tv.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

- Climbing up the active volcano of Tungurahua in Ecuador: alone in the clouds on the top, then a minute above the clouds. Might be the last one who was up there, four weeks later it exploded and has been very active since.
- Reaching the southernmost place of South America after three days demanding hike incl. crossing deep river in temperature close to 0 degrees and lots of rain. And getting back safe after another four days in total end of the world.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
