Meet Quentin
My journey in the valley began as a snowboard instructor, drawn by the allure of its snowy slopes. Over the years, I’ve been captivated by the valley’s many interesting and lesser-known facets of Japan.
With Air De Montagne, my goal is to make these cherished aspects of Japan more accessible to everyone. Join me as we explore the wonders of Minamiuonuma and Yuzawa together.
