Hi Guidders! 🧡 I'm Guerrino, an environmental hiking guide and a lifelong lover of nature. I started going to the mountains as a teenager. Then came canyoning and caving, to get to know this splendid world better and better — from inside and underneath it too, not just from the trails. What I want to pass on are the strong feelings you get crossing all the colours of our land: the endless shades of green and blue among mountains, waterfalls and centuries-old trees that always greet you kindly. And I hope that with the wonder and the falling in love with nature will come, all by themselves, respect and the wish to teach new generations about sustainable development, protecting the fine balance between nature and art, history and the best of this beautiful country. 🌿 See you in the mountains, Guidders!
