Ana-maria Pavalache

Currently based in Switzerland, Ana finds balance between working as a part-time social educator and spending as much time as she can being involved with world’s most isolated communities and conservation projects — mainly focused in the High Asia region. Whether it’s trekking in Ladakh, ski touring in the Swiss Alps, backcountry camping and skiing in Lapland, rock climbing and sailing in the Pacific Northwest, or exploring glaciers in the Karakoram Range, Ana makes it her mission to immerse herself in nature to foster a true and vital understanding of our place in the world.
