Alpinism
Climbing, beautiful views, tierdnes, getting up very early in the morning, chasing the last strobes of light, exposure, hunger, thirst, will to live. Those are the words I would use to describe my perception of alpinism.
Mountain guiding
Mountain guiding is a profession that goes very well together with beeing an active alpinist. Actually, it's quite hard to be a good mountain guide, without spending lots of time in the mountains for fun. Within mountain guiding, I wish to bring the feelings of complete relaxation, excitement, gratitude, that I feel very strongly in the mountains, to the clients.
Inspection of personal protection equipement (PPE)
Climbing, window cleaning, sport climbing, tree trimming, mountain guiding, caving, cleaning snow from roofs, ... these are all activities in which personal protective equipment (PPE) prevents falls from a height. In an organization (professional or voluntary) PPE must be reviewed once a year by an authorized person.
About me
I live in a small village Mojstrana, about 15 km away from Triglav North face, which is very dear to me. The proximity of the mountains, which offer an excellent playground for an alpinist to evolve and sports-oriented parenting, have rooted the desire to overcome myself deep in my mindset. It is this mindset that I try to stick to in all areas of life.
Over the years, I developed a sense for movement on vertical terrain through sport climbing and climbing in the mountains.This led to the thought and desire to be able to turn the time spent in the mountains into a profession. I completed mountain guiding course in 2023 and thus became a IFMGA mountain guide. Besides mountain guiding I spend a lot of time learning and teaching others about avalanches and avalanche safety. I also find formal education very important so I took the time coordination between sports and school as a challenge. After high school, I enrolled at theFaculty of Computer and Information Science in Ljubljana, where I completed masters degree.
