One of the true pillars of Team Abyss since his return to Geneva in 1999, Philippe, Swiss, travelled the world for 5 years before deciding to live permanently in the Philippines for a period of 12 years. Philippe opened dive shops in the regions of Boracay and Busuanga and explored much of the archipelago during this time. Fanatical about his love of travel and diving, he enjoys nothing more than organising the somewhat complicated logistics of Team Abyss. Based in Geneva all year round, he also travels occasionally and works as a guide at different sites.

Both madly passionate about diving they worked together towards their dive qualifications until in 2003 Cedric became an Instructor and Eloise a Divemaster.

Outside of diving they are both very passionate about the mountains, the outdoors, and still maintain their interest in science.
