Like every winter morning, Laurent Sarrazin puts on his red jacket and goes to work as a ski instructor at the modest resort of Joue-du-Loup (Hautes-Alpes), located in the magnificent limestone massif of Dévoluy, south of the Alps.
On weekends, he has private lessons with beginners in the snow garden, next to the snow front framed by bare larch trees.
