  • Ski Instructor Courses

    I have recently returned from a holiday in the Alps in France where I spent 10 days skiing with friends and family. I cannot describe in words how much I love skiing; the adrenalin that it gives when skiing down the slopes is something I am missing as I write about it now. I have now decided to go and look for the best ski instructor courses available in Europe because I think I have found my new calling in life, to become a ski instructor.

    Ski instructor courses in Europe or USA?

    Whilst I have looked at ski instructor courses in South America and North America I think that the fact in Europe we have some of the best ski slopes and that it is less than 3 hours away is the most important aspect in deciding. My friend Steff has also said he wants to come with me and pass one of these ski instructor courses. As I start University next winter I think I am going to spend the season doing this.

Visit the Scottish Borders

If you love Scotland then a trip to the Scottish borders is a must. They cover about eighteen hundred square miles and stretch from the rolling hills and moorland to the west, through the gently undulating valleys onto into the high agricultural plains of the easy and onwards to the rocky coastline with all its secluded coves and picturesque fishing villages, there is literally something for everyone. No matter what season you visit it will always delight and surprise. Like all good holidays careful planning is a must so finding and reviewing good hotels in the area is essential. Check out the best restaurants near the hotel or at least within striking distance. Scotland is famous for its activities and they include Cycling, fishing, Golf, Horse riding, Rugby, Walking and Skiing. What activity you want will obviously dictate where you go so check out your location and what is available to you. For skiing the best of the Scottish snow is on the upper slopes of CairnGorm, Glencoe and Nevis Range. If your tastes are not quite so physical Scotland is also famous for its music festivals and arts. The Edinburgh Festival in August is world famous as is the traditional New years Eve and not forgetting the Highland Games. If you want to travel by car there are hire car facilities in the area so you are free to travel to Scotland by train but enjoy the beauty of its landscape and the hospitality of its people whilst driving through.
