Ski Trip 2014
The phrase “BEST WEEK EVAAA” was said a lot by students to describe the recent Uni Ski Trip to Val Thorens. Indeed, I was one of those because it really was one of the best weeks of my life. Since our return we have flooded Facebook with pictures from the trip, so I thought I would share some of them with you here. The weather was great, the snow was good (given how late in the season we were) and the company was the best. Retro Onesie Day was a highlight of the week as everyone donned garishly coloured  outfits and hit the slopes in style. I continued the retro theme on several days throughout the week, wearing my dad’s first ever ski outfit on one day!
If you get the chance to go on a ski trip during your time at University I would thoroughly recommend it. Do not worry if you have never skied before, there are endless dry slope session beforehand and lessons once you hit the real snow. It was such a fantastic week, I am very sad it is over and I have had to return to the reality of revising for my finals. Maybe I should do a Masters go I can go on the trip again next year…
I’m going again this year in the mountains. Skiing and snowboarding are making an absolute must. I’m looking forward very much to the holiday 🙂
