About

I’m an International Mountain Leader who left the UK in 1999 to live and work in Europe. Since 2003 I’ve lived in Switzerland and had been splitting my time between the foothills of the Bernese Alps and Zinal in the canton of the Valais. We’re now based in Leysin in the Alpes Vaudoise in Switzerland where we also run the Epicea B&B providing our clients with a complete mountain experience, accommodation and expert local guiding summer and winter. Our exploration of the rest of Switzerland, the alps and the world won’t be stopping and you can join us on those journeys as well.

My profile, and confirmation of my qualifications, can be found in my member profile on the BAIML website. I’m also a member of the Swiss association ASAM (Association Suisse des Accompagnateurs en Montagne).

Also, as required by Swiss law, I hold a “carte de legimation” which is an official license to operate here as a mountain leader.
