Skier or snowboarder

Skier but would like to try my hand at snowboarding. I back myself not to be awful at it!

Ski/ boarding history

I learned to ski in my early teens and have been out on a few trips to the Alps since.

Favourite ski safari

Having been to Norefjell and Gausta in the summer, I would have to say the Ski & Spa Ski Safari.

Best mountain moment

I'm always happy in the mountains but my favourite moment has to be skiing home from après with friends all wearing Primark fairy lights - we looked like group of skiing Christmas trees!

Last resort(s) visited

Norefjell and Gausta on a summer trip with the team. Very excited for customers to experience our new Norway addition, Gausta! The new spa there is incredible and it was a surreal feeling going from a sauna to jumping in a frozen lake!

Next trip

Fingers crossed for a trip to the USA. It's got such a wide variety of terrain and potentially some challenging skiing.

Interesting fact

I actually learned to ski in the desert. My first snow experience and all my lessons were in Ski Dubai. I didn't get let loose in the Alps until a few years later on a school trip to Switzerland. Safe to say the views are better in the Alps!

Top ski trip recommendation

If you need a rest day from the slopes why not explore more of what the resort has to offer such as spas, snowmobiling and more?
