Barbara D.
Barbara’s love for the outdoors began in childhood, where she immersed herself in maps and books of tales and legends. For over 20 years, training in sustainable tourism, outdoor and humanitarian project management, travel and trekking have been the heart of her life.
Barbara has embarked on major expeditions, including a ski-pulka journey in Pakistan, long treks on foot in Morocco, and a year-long adventure across the Himalayas, traversing Kyrgyzstan, China, Pakistan, India, and Nepal. During this Himalayan journey, she focused on highlighting women’s empowerment and local initiatives – a human and sporting adventure she has shared at numerous festivals and in her book, Himalaya – Regard de femmes.
Having lived in New Zealand and the UK, Barbara is driven by a deep desire to share her knowledge, connect with people, and explore wilderness areas. She regularly leads groups to Pakistan, Tajikistan, and the regions she is particularly passionate about – Scotland and Ireland.
Through her travels, Barbara delves into the lives and territories of the world’s minorities and the life that reigns there, seeking to understand and share her experiences in a meaningful way.
