Summary
Skiing every year since the age of three, throughout the Alps in Austria, France and Switzerland, plus Whistler when visiting older brothers on ski internships. Italian Dolomites are a favourite with the ability to ski one and multi-day circuits, staying in refugees overnight. Skiing, along with rowing and athletics, was one of the practical performance elements of my GCSE in Physical Education.
