Marie-Liesse Crépin

Austria Guide

Tours in French, German and English

Born in France, I got to know Vienna at the age of 17 as an au pair. Fascinated by the city and its wonders, I firmly resolved to move there when I grew up! The dream came true when I arrived in 2018 with the aim of sharing my enthusiasm and passion for Vienna with others.

After studying history and international relations and starting my career in communications and marketing, I had the opportunity to experience a winter season in Finnish Lapland as an Arctic Guide not far from Lake Inari. During those months, I enjoyed accompanying groups on outdoor activities and realised that I really wanted to pursue a career that focused on sharing, interacting and passing on experiences.

In addition, more than fifteen years in the Scouts have familiarised me with nature and sensitised me to its protection. I have learnt to respect and love it, to see it as an ally whose resources should be used sensibly and wisely, while always thinking about our neighbours and those who come after us.

That’s why it’s important to me to do my bit to preserve our future! Each and every one of us, in our own area and sphere of activity, can play an important role in creating a better present and future. I am full of admiration and gratitude for the positive projects and the multifaceted commitment of people in the service of our planet Earth, our common home. As AGFF, I am pleased that I can contribute to put the spotlight on inspiring and hopeful initiatives for our planet and our humanity.
