Proudest Moment in life

After 3 years of attempts and 150 days spent in Patagonia I have come on top of Torre Egger. An adventure and an ascent that has worked hard, where we gave our best: trying, failing and trying again. Thanks to Matteo Bernasconi and Luca Terraced for sharing with me some unforgettable moments.

Cause(s)

As mountaineer I have long supported the cause of “do not put bolts next to cracks”, to preserve the playing field for those – like me – who loves to climbs putting nuts and friends.

Inspirations (other climbers)

Tommy Caldwell, for his way of life climbing and his approach to the walls; for me is a great friend as well as a way of life.
Nico Favresse, because he does extraordinary things and he always has fun.
Stefan Glowacz, for him versatility and the philosophy of “by fair means”.

Weakness

Too many…if I had to choose a couple I say that I dislike ice climbing at cold, and I am lacking of the explosive force for rock climbing.
