Hello, I’m Marie. I’m French but currently living in Japan. I’ve been hiking and camping since I was a child, but I started taking it more seriously after spending a year in South Korea, where hiking is deeply rooted in everyday life and culture.
I’ve always been passionate about world languages and cultures. Naturally, I wanted to share this passion through hiking because I believe it’s one of the best ways to explore a region—connecting with its people, traditions, environment, and stories along the way.
I’m part of the generation that grew up with the rise of the internet. We often hear about millennials as the generation who experienced life both with and without the internet—sometimes feeling stuck between two worlds. I relate to that, and hiking has become a way for me to stay present, reconnect with nature, and stop overthinking.
Shecanhike is a project dedicated to connecting and empowering women through hiking—helping us realize that we are strong and capable of achieving our goals, one step at a time. Like climbing a mountain, every step brings us closer to history, landscapes, and ourselves.
My ambition with Shecanhike is to build a worldwide community of women who support each other, connect with hiking buddies, and share tips and itineraries—where nature meets culture, and strength is found on every path.
