Skiing
2003 • Switzerland
2003 was the first year that I started skiing, this is where I would discover my favorite sport.... This passion for skiing would allow me to see the changes in the environment in the alps. The change in the glaciers and how the weather has become more extreme it has become rare to find that perfect day to ski unlike 15 years ago where the weather was more predictable. Through my passion i was able to understand what we are doing to the environment and I have decided in the recent years to consume more responsibly. This small memory from 15 years ago has still affected me today.
