Exploring new places is what most inspires me

Born and raised in Bolzano, close to the mountains I love the most: the Dolomites. I started skiing as a three-year-old and went into the mountains as soon as I could walk. When I was 14 years old I was psyched up for climbing, and the dream to become a mountain guide was born. Since then, I dedicate most of my timeto climbing, mountaineering and skiing and  I can’t say which branch I prefer: this is the reason why I climbed all the classic north faces ice walls of the Alps as Eiger or Matterhorn north face, as well as the most difficult rocky big walls like El Capitan in US. Exploring new places is actually what most inspires me, so traveling and climbing all overthe world, from Patagonia to the peaks in the Maroco desert,  is my life routine. In 2017 I became a Mountain Guide: from that moment on, I am happy to guide my clients in the places I love and transmit the passion for what I could call my life reason: the mountains.
