We knew of each other for a long time, but we didn’t really meet until the summer of 2024 in Courmayeur. We were both working as photographers at an ultra-trail race and our friendship started on the long walk up to the mountain hut where we were staying.

By the first few kilometers, we knew we would be great friends.

The best part happened at dinner. We were looking at the menù, wanting to try every single dish. Since we couldn't order everything, we decided to each pick a different plate and share them so we could taste as much as possible. That moment — sharing food and laughing in a crowded refuge — is when everything clicked.

Getting to know each other, we realized we shared the same love for the mountains, authentic food and the easy connection that happens when you are outdoors.

Without even realizing it, LORA was already born. It was only in 2026, talking about future projects — things we dreamed of doing, ideas we had been carrying around for a while — that we understood we had both been thinking about the same thing.

We wanted to create a space for other women to experience exactly what we had found: adventure, friendship and the joy of sharing a table in the wild.
