Hike, Travel, Inspire Change Globally
AN INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY OF PASSIONATE PEOPLE DRIVEN BY
THE SAME VALUES
Women from the outdoors, I have always been immersed in nature.
Since 2013 I have lived in many parts of the world (UK (4 years), Australia (2.5 years), Canada (6 months), New-Zealand (6 months)), French Guyana (4 months) learning from some of the best leaders in the tourism and outdoor industry.
My mission is to find solutions on how to reduce the impacts of tourism on the ecosystem (local populations, and the environment) so we can keep the benefits of travel and outdoors.
I believe in the power of
INSPIRATIONAL LEADERSHIP - MENTAL WELLBEING
COMMUNITY-BASED PROJECTS - MEANINGFUL CONNEXIONS
EDUCATION - SELF AWARENESS
With a wide background in the tourism and outdoor industry, for many years I have been organizing travel and outdoor trips for travellers, expats, etc.
Since 2017, I practice overnight solo traveling and trekking while empowering new hikers to follow my steps into nature. I believe both are great pathways to learn, grow out of the comfort zone.
As professional international adventure coach, I love to empower others so they can make the most of their life experience.
From farmer to resilience and sustainable tourism specialist around the world, (via landscaper/gardener, visitor experience specialist, and sales representative for outdoors shops), I have acquitted a global understanding of how to design, maintain, bring dynamics and promote hiking and cycling paths (slow tourism).

2017, as a leader, I greeted new people and organized day walks around Victoria in Australia.
2017 and 2019 Worked for Mountain Design and Fjallraven outdoor shops, advising hiking and travel gears; giving some tips, personalizing each experience regarding their project and profile.
Summers 2012 (France), 2018 (Lake Louise, Ca), 2019(Picton, NZ), I worked for visitors center, located in remote areas, specializing myself in advising and organizing travel experiences related to outdoor activities and slow tourism.
From 2017, I have been doing some research about :
- How to bring the “spark” we have while we experience an adventure into our daily routine to avoid post-travel blues.
- How can we compensate for the lack of those experiences in situations of physical immobility such as lockdown or personal restrictions? I have been experimenting with solutions toward human well-being and natural respect and balance with the ecosystem.
