Like totally snowboarder dude.

Snowboarding for 25 years. I was an instructor for four years in Canada and New Zealand, which included four seasons in Whistler, one season in Banff and one season in New Zealand.

The Taste of Japan Ski Safari – definitely the greatest offering Ski Safari have ever created. This Ski Safari has it all, blower blizzard powder in Niseko, incredible cuisine at every turn, stunning cultural experiences in Kyoto and Tokyo and bento box lunches enjoyed on blindingly fast bullet trains that get you from city to city.

Sitting at the very top is heli-skiing in Alaska, put simply a dream come true. Closely followed by Cat skiing with Big Red Cats, Red Mountain BC, Canada and Weiss Cat Ski in Niseko, Japan which is my banner picture above.

Big Sky, Jackson Hole, Norefjell, Gausta, Narvik

Niseko, Rusutsu, Osaka, Kobe, Tokyo (Flavours of Japan Ski & City Safari), Mammoth Mountain, California, and some brand-new resorts to the programme in Japan on a research trip in March, watch this space.

I once donned a bear suit and cycled around Whistler’s Roundhouse restaurant at night, followed by paddling a canoe the next day on Green Lake, still dressed as the bear, to please a group of scientists who hoped to see a bear during their summer conference. I provided that experience, only with better hugs and high fives.

Japan – if you have not yet been what are you waiting for?! If you want almost guaranteed powder, incredible food and culture, the best tree skiing of your entire life where you can ski like a hero on every run then please treat yourself to the ultimate Christmas present and get in touch with me, so that I can make your dreams come true.
