Guillaume Jacquemin - Mountaineer

My name is Guillaume, I am 23 years old. Originally from Nice, I have been traveling the Mercantour massif since I was a child, which is for me a refreshing place and a breath of fresh air.

Initially hiking and climbing, mountaineering gradually becomes a logical continuation for traveling through the mountains in complete safety. With this sport, I discover the joy of exploration, of true adventure but also the excitement of uncertainty, reflection and deciphering the terrain. A sport of sharing, freedom, beauty…

Today I am a member of the Espoir FFCAM 06 group, the opportunity to share and learn from the guides of the Mercantour company and my friends in the group.

I am a 5th year medical student , I love my studies although sometimes difficult. If the mountain is not a professional goal for me, it is essential to my work at the hospital, allowing me to breathe and leave with a small square of blue sky and wild landscapes in my head.

Lovers of Mercantour, a little-known but nevertheless intense massif, where the opening of original and aesthetic mixed or rock routes is still possible today.

I met Lagoped a bit by chance. I quickly realized that the concept of manufacturing products that were both personalized and using environmentally friendly manufacturing processes fully corresponded to the values of today's mountain environment and the needs of the practitioner.

I hope to be able to introduce Lagoped to people who follow me on my blog “ Mercantour Sauvage ” or even better in real life by going climbing together!
