Hi!
I'm a 16 year old Naturalist of Graubünden (Switzerland | CH). My interest in nature started as I was a little boy. In 2014, when I was 8 year old, I got my first camera. In April 2021, when I discovered iNaturalist, my interest in nature grew even more.

My main interests are in reptiles, amphibians and insects such as butterflies. Beside that I like to watch birds and mammals. In the field of plants I'm interested in alpine flowers, especially orchids and carnivorous plants. When I was seven my favorite animal was the common chimpanzee [Pan troglodytes]. Today I would say that I like all animals and plants that live on earth.

I like iNaturalist because it allows us to interact and learn from each other. Thanks to the developers and all the ones who work for iNaturalist!
