Beyond photography
Walking and hiking
Taking long walks in the woods is a daily joy. When travelling I enjoy making day hikes in the mountains, or simply strolling many kilometres through a charming city. With my dog Alex by my side, I keep exploring the world on foot every day.

Maps
With my background in geographic data and satellite imagery, I have a special interest in every type of map. And I put them to good use during my roadtrips!

Climbing
In 2017, I discovered sport climbing. Climbing has brought me to quite a few special viewpoints in Europe and I have even had the chance to shoot a wedding while climbing! I will also never forget the night out in a portaledge, sleeping on a vertical wall... the coolest place I have ever slept.

European wines
After completing several courses on the art of wine, I have gained a special interest in European wines and winemaking, and I like to visit local wineries. Moldova is Europe's most intriguing wine country, where you can even drive (underground!) between the wine barrels.
