Guiding clients in the high mountains and skiing at night in Japan.

My guest today is Sylvain ReChu a high mountain guide from the Maurienne Valley and the French Alpes. His desire to spend more time skiing and to be really out in the mountains led him to hang up his Ski instructor's uniform and pursue a career and love affair with the mountains as a mountain guide.I think the mountains are like his mistress, he has pursued her all over the world, from the French Alpes to the Italian Dolomites, Alaska, Peru, Sweden, and Norway.I didn’t really know Sylvain that well, I followed him on Instagram and we met a few times at a local mountain bike Enduro event. So it was a real pleasure to sit down and chat to Sylvain and get to know him more.Hello friends, I am your host ASHLEY PETTIT welcome to another episode of the Beyond the mountains podcast. Where I talk to people who live work and play in the mountains.Let's start the intro music and get on with the show. Allons-y
