Hi, I'm Federico!
I will be your point of reference to be able to enjoy skiing and have a 360-degree experience on the snow.

I’m an Italian ski and snowboard instructor, I’m 27 years old and I started skiing when I was 3 years old. I have done many competitions with skis and snowboard and in 2010 I became boardercross Italian champion. 4 years later in 2014 I became a snowboard instructor and then in 2018 also a ski instructor. Teaching is my main job and I’ve been doing it since 2014 in Sauze D’Oulx (Italy). I have a strong passion for everything related to the mountains and I’m happy to share this passion with everyone who would like to join me!

For me, the mountains are freedom and pure air to breathe.
