Well, it's been a week already since I left rainy London to come to Zermatt in Switzerland for three weeks. The aim being that I will then have the required qualification to take up the job waiting for me in Verbier. So far, things have been nigh on perfect. Blue skies, powder, great snow, no crowds... just heavenly really.
The hard work starts tomorrow though with two weeks of BASI training. The trainers are notorious for not letting small things slip through, so my skiing will need to be spot on! But my first week of performance training has already helped iron out some flaws I never knew I had!
The weather forecast is good, with some snow due sometime this week to replenish the fresh tracks we put down last Wednesday. So far it still feels very much like a holiday, albeit a strange one without Vicki. A tough two weeks before we can meet up in Verbier but it's all worth it for a whole season of ski and snow. Oh and some work too!
There will be some photos to come once I a) take some and b) figure out how to upload them!
Hope everyone in the UK and elsewhere is good and we really look forward to showing you the sights and sounds of Verbier once we get our head around it.
Take care, I'm off to look at the weather and get ready for more skiing!
