One week and I'll be in Switzerland for my first ever ski experience. To say I'm excited is an understatement. I'm going there with Louise's family and this trip is all we've been talking about for the past year (sadly for our friends this is no exaggeration).
IT'S SO SOON.
So here is a little pinterest post to get me even more in the snowy mood.

I had my first ski lesson yesterday and it was so fun (other than having to wear the smelly helmets, but safety first yah). It's a lot more like ice skating than I thought it would be, so that's good. I kind of know how to slow down and control the direction, but maaaay need a bit more work on that haha.
How very fitting with the beginning of the winter olympics. (I love love love watching them!!)

I spent a season in Val d'Isere last year. It was so much fun, and I have so many beautiful photos from it! I'm glad you loved it. I hope you have so much fun! Will you take some photos to share with us?

Doooo it! It was one of the best weeks of my life, I definitely recommend it!xx
DeleteYou are going skiing?! You lucky lucky thing. You will LOVE it. Honestly, it is one of my favourite things to do in the world...It might take a while to get into, but stick with it! The better you get, the more fun it becomes! I'm going in Easter & buzzing already!

I can totally understand what you mean now, I think I am in love with the sport and everything associated with it, I miss it so so much!! Have fun at easter, I wish I was going again already aha!!xx
DeleteI attempted skiing once but it turned into snowboarding and than retreating into the cabins for hot chocolate. It sure is fun and very challenging. Hope you have a lot of fun and excited to see photos and hear about your experience :)
ReplyDeleteHot chocolate sounds brilliant! By the end of the week we all knew the different slops by the cafe which was near them! Haha I loved it thoughxx
DeleteSkiing looks such fun, not that crazy jump stuff they've been doing on the Olympics. That looks terrifying. Good luck to you and your skiing endeavors, even though you suck for posting snowy pictures- up in Scotland we have had zero snow where I live, just tonnes in the hills. Might need to drive out and find some!

Haha I know what you mean, although a part of me would reallllyyyy love to try what they do in the Olympics, I am a bit crazy like that though haha. Scotland is pretty too though!xx
DeleteThat sounds really exciting! Imagine how you are counting days before you travel. :)

We were counting down for over a year haha! (No exaggeration sadly for our friends)xx
DeleteThat's so exciting! I've never skiied before but the Swiss Alps in the winter are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree, it was like looking out of my window and seeing Christmas with all the snow!xx
DeleteOh gosh I am so jealous, the pictures are amazing.
