Ted Toussaint, UIMLA Certified International Mountain Leader

Ted Toussaint

Originally from the flat country of the Netherlands, Ted decided to follow her love for the mountains and moved to the French Alps. This love started at a very early age as her mother still roamed the mountains when she was 8 months pregnant. Ted has worked as a trekking, climbing, and canyoning guide all over the world exploring remote places in the Australian outback, Nepal, Vietnam, and Morocco, to name a few. She loves traveling to new climbing places in her cozy homemade campervan.

As a behavioral scientist specializing in nonverbal behavior, Ted is committed to providing (outdoor) professionals with the people skills they need to have great interactions with others. Besides this, she works as an executive coach in wilderness settings to enhance personal and team development. She loves writing and has recently published her first book about an amazing five-week cycling journey she undertook with her autistic brother.
