I am a screenwriter, novelist, journalist, and esoteric researcher, who has been living in Montsegur for the last few years, hunting down and documenting the various mysteries in the area. Through the study of local oral traditions and translating various old dossiers, I have become well-versed in the folklore and prehistory of the region along with the story of the Albigensian Crusade.
A few years ago, I decided to base myself in Montsegur to be immersed directly in the mysteries of this place. You can read all that you want about the Cathars, but until you experience the terrain directly for yourself, there are pieces of the story that you will miss, especially on the intuitive level. The past lives on here and the spirit still moves and breathes within these sacred spaces. That's the reason Montsegur has been revered since time out of mind.
My half and full day walking tours include many places that are off the map. I love sharing my knowledge of the area and teaching people about the history of the landscape. Old magic still resides within the hills of Occitania and the past and present walk hand in hand. There is no place in the world closer to my heart.
