Jolfa Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Plan on doing this myself, my sister did it for a bit and loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliot Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Did a season in St Anton in Austria about 7-8 years ago working in a hotel as pot wash, then went uni finished that and started the career bollox. Except I have now quit and as of tuesday next week I fly out to Canada to start a 6 month season as a lift host at Whistler. Once that finishes I am off to the snowy mountains in Oz for another season, then Colorado and maybe Breakenridge for another season, then if the cash holds out another season in NZ. 4 winter seasons in 2 years, get the f**k in!In other words, do it.

Pashley26 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) A tip from the top, learn to spell Chalet....Honestly, you for real ?Read your first post now, and you've then called it a Chalet but spelt experience wrong ? I know your hardly going to speak English whilst your out there but if you suck at English that much then don't even bother learning a new language !

But by all means have fun with that!Well, I know a couple of people who have worked in chalets for 6 month holidays. I've done a season in Morillion (French Alps) snowboarding and have stayed in several self catering, and catered chalets on seasonal holidays so I've got a fair bit of information I could tell you. But I'm not going to because you can't spell... Edited October 20, 2009 by Pashley26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd only get bored if you were feeling forced to go out every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
