Before creating the Orri, we lived in Barcelona's Gothic district. For many years, we dreamed of living in a more natural setting somewhere in the Pyrenees mountains. In 1998 after a long search, we bought an old farmhouse in the village of Planès and shortly afterwards, we left the city with the idea of transforming the farmhouse into a trailside lodge.

As the project took shape, we decided that our inn would be ecological: as mountaineers, we wanted it to reflect our environmental values, and as teachers, we wanted to use it as a platform to encourage debate and awareness of the environmental issues facing our society.
