HOW HAS SPORT CHANGED YOUR LIFE?
"I started climbing when I was 13. My first climbing course was like a revelation. I found all my desires anchored in climbing - ambition, goals, freedom and adventure. Very quickly, my enthusiasm turned into a philosophy of life."
HOW MUCH DO YOU ENJOY LIFE MORE THAN OTHERS?
"I don't compare my way of life with that of others. That's not the criterion. Everyone strives for happiness and this pursuit is not comparable and absolutely individual."
