Blue Skies

The best days in St. Anton have to be, without doubt, the days just after a massive snowfall. The snow has been falling incessantly, the mountains have been in a complete white out, but suddenly, one morning, you wake up, and what's that? Sun? Blue skies?? In January?? It's time to get up those mountains and enjoy that fresh powder!

Ain't No Mountain High Enough

At 3am our alarms went off and I groggily slumped out of bed, looking back and longing to re-wrap myself up in those warms sheets. But by 3:50am there we were, dressed in layer upon layer of clothes with skis strapped onto our backs, standing in the dark, about to start our moonlit climb up the mountain to the top of Kappall.

Hello, England

We meet again, rainy England.

First Snow

There's nothing I love more than snow. It's one of the few things that still fills me up with that child-like excitement, waking up in the morning to see a blanket of white outside, fighting the temptation to make snow angels and build snowmen until the sun goes down. So after weeks without a single fresh flake in sight, when the snow finally started falling in St. Anton on new year's eve (and then again at midnight - talk about a perfect movie moment!), I couldn't resist getting outside straight away. If there's anything that can instantly transform a place into a magical wonderland, it's snow.

Life in the Mountains

Well, hello stranger!

Happy new year! Firstly, many many apologies for such a long silence here on my blog. I have missed just sitting down, taking a breather and writing a post. If you follow me on Instagram or read this post, you'll probably know I've been a bit of a busy bee this past month or so, and that I'm not writing this from Surrey, but from the snowy Austrian mountains of St. Anton.

I'm Going on an Adventure

For a while now I've had a bit of a secret that I've been desperate to share, but I've been biding my time whilst I've got my head around it. However, I've decided that I can now finally tell you my exciting news! Drum roll please....
