Agris Purviskis (Latvia)

Candidate Russian Ski Instructor

‘Arnis and Agris’ may sound like ‘Max and Moritz,’ the prank-playing characters from a famous German fairytale. But these two likeable Latvians are no pranksters at all: quite to the contrary, they are most reliably attending to our new Adventure Zermatt Russian VIP Club! In summers, Agris is planning solid houses in his architecture office and spends his leisurely hours golfing on the greens surrounding Riga. Luckily, his coworkers and his family have let him leave for Zermatt’s winter so that he can use his great knowhow as organizer and professional skiing instructor (ISIA) of the Russian Skiing Instructors’ Association. And this comes not only to the wellbeing of our guests from Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Benedikt Germanier (Switzerland)

National Swiss Ski Instructor

It is not only Goethe who had two hearts beating in his breast: also Benedikt’s path shows two heart chambers full of lust for life: from being a higly competent banker and analyst for currency fluctuations that even the Fed (the US central banking system) has asked for his advice, to the manager of the super skis ZAI and then skiing instructor (BBT). What a rollercoaster of feeling from Wall Street to the skiing slopes of Zermatt where already his father climbed the Horu as Wallisian mountaineering guide. The son of the mountains has come home after all!

Ervin Jacomet (Switzerland)

National Swiss Ski Instructor

Being a ‚homo alpinus’ through and through, Ervin is always aiming for something higher, whether on foot, on skis or with climbing irons, as paragliding pilot for passenger flights or even together with his little son. The Bündian skiing instructor and moutaineering guide is at the moment preparing another Himalaya expedition onto the Cho Oyu situated exactly at the boarder between Nepal and China, with 8188 metres above sea level more than double the height of the Small Matterhorn. Ervin Alpinus is sounding the depths of existence and is testing the limits, but still radiates such calmness and trust which you can only find above the clouds, close to the light, in the eternal dance of the winds.
