What a week it has been ! The powder, the pistes, the people !!I was so pleased how my Women’s All Mountain Group went ! I also managed to get a few hours skiing for myself with my mountain bestie .. how did everyone’s week go?

Getting to the end of a lovely week in Baqueira/Beret skiing with friends. There was a big dump of snow just before we arrived and we have had lots of lovely weather. I also grabbed a few private lessons with a British coach who’s lived and worked here for 20 years or so. And I gave the all in one a run out. Here’s the evidence.

I tend to stay in hotels rather than chalets/apartments on ski trips and often find there’s no facilities to make hot drinks in the room. Whilst coffee etc is served at breakfast, you often have to pay for it at other times in a hotel or it might not be available. So, now I take a small travel kettle and sachets of milk, coffee, tea and hot chocolate with me - all decaffeinated. I pack all those inside the kettle so it doesn’t take up too much of my luggage space. These things can all be found on Amazon; they’re not always available in supermarkets. Also, it stays fresh without a fridge and between trips. In the past, I have bought ‘fresh’ milk in the resort and kept it on my balcony, windowsill etc. when there’s no fridge in the room. I’m interested to know what else are recommended essential items to pack for a ski trip?

Hi all .. so sorry I could make the call with a million of other things going on. I am glad you had a great time !
