What do you like best about your sport?

The feeling of freedom combined with the pain of effort, pushing back your limits.

What’s your favourite memory of Villard/Corrençon?

Spending time with my family and friends, picnicking and walking at Bois Barbu and the Château Julien lookout. Here, we live with the seasons: in spring, we pick daffodils and lilies of the valley, and in autumn, it’s the turn of the mushrooms.

3 words that define the destination for you?

Home – Happiness – Nature.

What’s your favourite spot in Villard/Corrençon?

My favourite secret spot is the little field behind my father’s house, perfect for taking a nap in the sun, reading a good book and slowing down a bit. Otherwise, I love eating at the Auberge du Clariant in Corrençon.

How does the coming season look for you?

I’ve had superb preparation for this new season, all the indicators are green and I can’t wait to get back out on the snow and into competition.

The competition season is great because it’s a perfect blend of euphoria and renewal. Everything is put back on the line with each new start and that makes you want to push yourself even harder.
