I love all about mountain : ice, rock, ski, altitude, wind, sun, travel...
My prefered activity is big wall, it's like a trip in trip. You go far for climbing big wall, you meet new cultures, new mountains, but when you begin to climb, it's like another trip in your trip during some days.

How old were you when you started? 15
Who or what inspired you to start climbing?
My uncle Franck, and a mountain guide in my school Pierre CLERC
Who served as your inspiration in life?
Big wall climbers, you have to be a good sport climber and a good alpinist too (I think at Lynn Hill, Tommy Caldwell, Stepph Davis)...
But some alpinist like Messner, Steve House, Gabarou are very impressive too.
