In episode 11 we had the privilege of sitting down with Community Marketing and Impact Manager for Patagonia Vanessa Rueber. Vanessa shares with us her experience growing up in Canada, how she came to the Swiss Alps and why we must fight for the spaces we love. Vanessa is passionate about the outdoors and sits on the Board of Directors for Protect our Winters Switzerland. In this episode, we talk about our love of nature and the importance of voting to preserve our most sacred outdoor spaces. If you ever wondered what it’s like to live in the Alps or work for an iconic company such as Patagonia, you won‘t want to miss this episode.
