First winter at Avoriaz, France

Throughout that fabulous winter, learning was the key word.

Learning to ski in all kinds of snow and terrain, learning how to jump off rocks, falling badly, getting all banged up and getting repaired, learning how to teach, learning how to use my limited, crude English ski vocabulary with all kinds of skiers, learning how to become a faster, more reliable slalom skier, learning how to have fun and finally “living the dream”!
