Inspired by Jacques Cousteau and other grand explorers before him, Jean-Philippe spent his childhood in the beautiful outdoors pushing physical boundaries before joining the elite French Special Forces Mountain Commandos in 1985 and ultimately leaving his native France to travel the world.
This quest morphed him from a starry-eyed child to a recognized explorer, but only at the cost of abandoning the conditioning of the modern world and daring to do the impossible: a lesson he hopes encourages others who refuse to listen when told “they can’t.”
Today, through his Live Your Adventure memoir series, Jean-Philippe inspires people to embrace their dreams and live life to the fullest.
Jean-Philippe is currently working on new real-life adventure memoirs. Find out more about Jean-Philippe and all his books and view his award-winning photos at www.jpsoule.comview less
