Guiding is sharing, sharing is life, life is passion ;-) I found my love for nature in the mountains, and I haven’t stopped moving ever since. A true outdoor enthusiast, I’ve lived in Denmark, Germany, Austria, and Ecuador working in international commerce. Along the way, I earned a Business Degree and became an official Hiking and Cycling Guide. I have lived in Barcelona for the past 20 years, and traveling and getting to know new cultures is one of my biggest motivations in life. I discovered that welcoming people and showing them around is a natural response to all the hospitality I received during many years of travelling around the world. I also very much enjoy hiking, cycling, skiing, trail running and basketball. My most liked Natural Wonder in Barcelona: Hiking above the majestic cliffs and needdles of the North face of Montserrat. My favorite city activity in Barcelona: getting lost on a bicycle through the tiny streets of the Gothic quarter until I reach the Mediterranean. My goal is to create meaningful experiences through a combination of nature, sport, traditions, and history. Ready to discover?
