Biography
Born June 20th 1972
Her tribulations
This isn’t her first attempt… when she was eight years old she took off with her dog to spend the night in a cave and didn’t tell anyone where she was going. At seventeen she crossed the Central Anatolia (Turkey) on horseback… without the small detail of knowing how to ride. Her taste for travelling brought her to Australia but it was in New-Zealand that she encountered the full experience of walking. She spent time on the wild lands of Patagonia.
She stayed in Moorea (French Polynesia) where she was attracted to the beauty of the islands. But the Australian Bush beckoned her once again. Over the years she has returned regularly to rejuvenate. She explored Canada by canoe and in 2000 she crossed the United-States, from Canada to the Mexican border… 4 260Km in 4 months and 6 days… it was a path full of obstacles.
From up in her snowy mountains in Switzerland, she thought up a wild plan: crossing the Australian deserts in survival mode. This adventure ended November 25th 2003. It took 17 months to travel 14’000Km across the Australian Bush on foot. She came back changed and accompanied by a dingo (wild dog). By saving his life she ended up with an accomplice named Joe. Then she dreamt of South America’s white mountains… she returned with “La Voie des Andes”. This expedition ended 8months later after 7000Km on foot in the Andes, from Chile to Peru via Bolivia. In 2010 she’s leaving again; his time from Siberia to Australia… from the cold to the desert and from high altitudes to jungles. She will come back and tell us her tale… more than an adventure it’s a philosophy of movement.
