About this listen

 Welcome to our podcast, where we ask ourselves and a bunch of our good friends: what does it mean to live a simple life in the mountains?

Our Salewa People gathered at Simon Messner's place in Val Senales where we had the great opportunity to sit together and talk about different topics related to our daily life, such as: overcoming our fears, enjoying the journey not just the final result, what does it mean to contribute to the mountain culture and also what can we do to reduce our impact on the planet. We also discussed knowledge, happiness and other interesting things.

Being in the mountains gives us the chance to slow down and appreciate our surroundings. It's about focusing on what really matters, what makes us happy, but at the same time it’s about learning and reflecting on responsibilities.

We invite you to join us on this journey, and be a part of it.

    Knowledge: A talk with Eline and Hanspeter

    Eline and Hans believe there are two sources of knowledge: personal experiences and learning from others through books or human interaction. They also think that humans have a great capacity to connect with others and to live with contradictions.
    In this conversation, they suggest that experiencing the benefits of reducing consumption is necessary for people to understand their value, and that it might require some rules and regulations to change cultural practices.
