Discovering climbing
In 2011, I discovered sport climbing. It started indoors, at the gym, before moving out to crags and eventually multi-pitch routes. One new interest led naturally to another.
A LITTLE HISTORY
My story.
From computer science to the mountains, and from climbing to new ways of exploring the world.
BEHIND THE LENS
Not quite a straight line.
I started out as a computer scientist and later became a researcher. Along the way, the things I loved doing outside of work changed quite a bit. This is how it all unfolded.

Into the mountains
In 2013, I took a mountaineering course with the Scuola Padana di Alpinismo. That experience opened up a different side of the mountains and encouraged me to explore beyond climbing.
2015–2020
Hiking and exploring further
Around 2015–2016, I discovered hiking, mountaineering and via ferratas in earnest. The following years were increasingly about being out in the mountains, until the more technical adventures gradually gave way to casual hiking after 2020.

New perspectives
In 2021, I got my motorcycle licence, started mountain biking and discovered drone filming. They brought different ways to travel, explore and capture the places I visited — on the road, on trails and from above.

Travelling, photographing, sharing
These days, most of my journeys are for work or leisure. I still enjoy an occasional hike, but just as often I find myself exploring a city or simply being a tourist somewhere new. The photographs and videos on this site are the things I have brought back along the way.

There are still places to discover, roads to take and stories to bring home.
