Driven by my passion for cross-country skiing and the mountains, I chose to live in La Clusaz which is an ideal place to find quality training sites. Passionate about sport since a young age, I tested different activities for a long time before finding my way at the high level. I then started cross-country skiing at the age of 13, which seemed very complicated to me at the start because I was a lot behind technically compared to other skiers. It was within the Ski Club Nordique du Pays Rochois that I learned to progress on my cross-country skis and I have now been on the French cross-country ski team for 10 years. In particular, I participated in the Beijing 2022 Olympic Games and the Planica World Championships in 2023.

MELISSA'S FAVORITE BAR

Lemon - Almonds

TANGY, STIMULATING

The tangy taste of lemon will stimulate your taste buds. Its beautiful synergy with the irresistible flavor of almond and date makes it an ideal raw bar for all day long. Gourmiz' uses dehydrated organic whole lemon powder, for better preservation of the product and perception of the lemon taste over time. The lemon equivalent concentration remains unchanged.
