MOUNTAIN ENERGY IS TRANSFORMING
The beauty and tranquility of this place has a transforming power.
ABOUT THE GUIDE
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 eight 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.
My focus is to provide an excellent service and help my client as much as possible. I don't want to work with masses but, instead, deal with people in a personalised way and work to see everyone happy at the end of the day. Being professional and a caretaker is who I am; and this kind of service is really hard to find around here.
I will happily guide you through these amazing experiences in English, Portuguese, French and Spanish languages.

EXPERIENCE
I have been spending my summers hiking in the Swiss and French Alps and Spanish Pyrenees mountains. I also do some bouldering, climbing and Via Ferrata.
Come wintertime, I spend my time in hiking trails, but also snowboarding, skiing and splitboarding on the slopes, freeriding and freestyling.
