Petra Brajnik

“I believe the mountains can be our best teacher, reminding us to be humble and grateful for the moments of joy and happiness that we experience when we are amongst them”

Born in the heart of the Julian Alps she grew up with the love for the mountains and nature. Skiing, snowboarding, climbing and later BASE jumping in Slovenian mountains progressed in exploring the hidden jewels all over the world. Being fortunate enough to see different countries and conditions people live in made her more responsible to her surroundings. She worked with several NGOs on different projects, organized different cultural, art and sport events in her local community and around the globe, worked as a snowboard instructor , been a part of different sport events and film productions as an athlete as well as a part of the safety management team.

You will most probably plan your trip with Petra, she will handle all the logistics and give you some great tips and suggestions to make this an unforgettable experience.

“In the past few years I have joined my passion end experience in creating trips and expeditions that are unique from sport as well as intercultural aspect and I love my job!”

Rok Zalokar

“Life is like skiing. Look around and enjoy every moment regardless conditions.”

Rok grew up in Slovenia with Julian Alps as his backyard. Expeditions to Himalaya started when he was 17, started steep skiing at 15, climbing big walls at 13 and it was a natural progression to BASE jump and to become a mountain guide- a job that feeds his soul. He has been to several climbing expeditions to Peru, Kyrgyzstan, Tibet, Nepal and India.

He loves mountains also as a landform so he studied geology, but his work was always more human-related. He worked as a ski instructor, alpine instructor, field avalanche reporter, helicopter operator and as a mountain guide all over the world. Lately he spends his summers in The Alps and his winters between Europe and Alaska. He is also a IFMGA instructor for future guides.

“Mountains are my passion. Winter or summer, climbing, flying through the air or skiing, it doesn't matter to me if I am guiding or having fun with friends. I simply get spaced out when I am in the mountains. Guiding for me is not a job - it is a state of mind and a lifestyle.”
