Elodie: I am 33 years old. I like sports activities and the social bond. When I was 15, I traveled a year on a sailing boat around the Atlantic. Since then, I have a passion for travel, meeting and discovery. For 10 years, I learned sailing, sailing and teaching this sport. I also became a social worker with children, then homeless adults.
Three years ago, I met Pascal and started climbing outdoors, on real cliffs. I discovered another sport, a surpassing of oneself, a way of focusing on oneself. I had long wanted to go around the world. We decided to make it on the theme of climbing and choose our destinations as well. But climbing is a tool to travel and to meet people everywhere we go, to open ourselves to new cultures, to enrich us!

Pascal:

I am 32 years old, I am a chemical engineer working in parfum and cosmetic industrie. I am passionate about mountain sports, skiing, climbing, mountaineering, hiking ...
I have been climbing for 7 years, initially for mountaineering and then just for the pleasure of sport and to discover new cliffs all over Europe and soon around the world.
I have the long trip project for a long time and today with Elodie this project around the world makes sense. The goal is to climb but especially to discover new cultures, meet people and exchange.
