“He came back changed, more humble, with an incredible perspective and detachment on day to day life.”
Nataly Bodenmuller, Xavier’s Friends
Xavier is a Swiss adventurer born in 1976 and has built a certain notoriety.
Former Freeride Snowboard Champion, he decides in 2008 to quit everything and leave alone to the uninhabited island of Tofua, in the Pacific, for 10 months.
His aim is to discover a new way of life by returning radically to Nature. With a Swiss army knife and a machete as only tool, he will live an extraordinary adventure, as much an inner experience as in terms of adaptation.
Finding something to eat, building a shelter, discovering and adapting to his new environment were part of various challenges.
