At 28, Matthieu has already led expeditions in more than 90 countries, by electric bike, on skis, by pulka ski, snowkite, in a 4L, by sail or by kayak. He is also the youngest person in the world to have reached the South Pole solo and in complete autonomy. A fascinating exchange with an adventurer whose talent does not wait for the years to accumulate.

Altitude is an unavoidable component of our treks and ascents. What can we do to ensure this experience does not become an ordeal, or turn into a disaster? Paulo Grobel, a high mountain guide with vast experience, often off the beaten track, shares his perspective on altitude during a truly immersive journey.

Having reached six of the fourteen 8000 meter summits on our planet and passionately lived through 40 years of mountaineering history, Bernard Muller leads several of our mountaineering courses at the École de l'Aventure in the Alps as well as ascents above 7000 meters. In a video interview, he answers our questions about his career and high-altitude expeditions.
