TRANSALPS

As I watched the black lives matter movement I asked myself: How is it possible that in our world there's still so much discrimination going on. How comes that women still earn less money in the same positions as their male counterparts, how is it possible that you're still not comfortable kissing your same-sex partner in public and how can it be that people of colour or with migratory background still face so many disadvantages in daily life. And all this in a so called civilized country. Something has to change.

 

Since my early days as a paragliding student I've had the idea to cross the Alps on foot and with my paraglider. This idea has been growing in me. And one day watching television with riots in America I understood that I have the unique opportunity to use my project to raise awareness on all the kinds of discrimination in our world and maybe raise money for an NGO which fights all the facets of discrimination.

As I told my idea to two of my best flying buddies, they wanted to join and so we became the trio infernale facing one of their best challenges ever!
