Hiking Guide/Guide de Randonnée/Guia de Pedestrianismo
In 2010 I decided to leave my country of origin, Portugal, and spend one winter season in the mountains. It was love at first sight. I left my job as a Psychologist and have lived and worked in several countries ever since.
I’ve been living in Grindelwald, Switzerland, since 2017 and exploring the various trails of this region for the past seven years. I find the beauty of this place to be inspiring and its energy transformative. That is why I want to share my love for mountains with other people and reveal magical places to the ones who enjoy nature and the great outdoors.
Holidays are for recovering your energy and making unforgettable memories, and I will help you do that by discovering beautiful nature. With gorgeous views, regenerating silences, smiles and moments of connection with your inner self, you will go back home feeling happier and calmer.
I will happily guide you through these amazing experiences in English, Portuguese, French and Spanish languages.
