week in Switzerland and asked her why she started the sport.
“I’ve always liked all kinds of sports, especially skiing, and it seemed natural to start
snowboarding. It doesn't take long to learn and you can become really good in a few months!”

day from 8.30 a.m. until 4 p.m. I also run and go biking. But I just love doing it all! I like the
competitions and being in the mountains. It's so beautiful. But free-riding, that's doing what you
want when you're not in a competition, is the best thing in the world for me!”
We asked her what is important when you're learning. “You can learn quickly but you need
lessons. It's also important to have the right clothes so you don't get wet because, to begin with, you
