A Weekend At A Wintry Camp Sloane

March 4, 2015

If you’ve been keeping up with my Photo of the Week series, you’ll know that almost a month ago to the day I hopped on a plane and flew across the pond to America for the most incredible wintry long weekend at my second home, the place where I have spent the past 4 summers, … More A Weekend At A Wintry Camp Sloane

Top 4 Resorts for a Ski Season in France

November 20, 2014

Now that winter is suddenly upon us (it’s bloody freezing outside and I’ve had to crack the furry coat out of the cupboard), my mind has been turning to that awesome season I spent out in the snowy mountains back in 2013. It’s been a while since I’ve had my feet strapped to a board, … More Top 4 Resorts for a Ski Season in France

The Final Days in Les Arcs (For Natives.co.uk)

April 9, 2013

So it’s been a while since my last post and I have some pretty sad news to tell you. This is my last post for Natives as the season is over and I am now back in England and already missing the snow! It’s mental how fast the last 3 months have gone…it feels like … More The Final Days in Les Arcs (For Natives.co.uk)

Photo Of The Week: A Family Visit

April 1, 2013

This week my whole extended family came out to Les Arcs to visit me for Easter weekend and to celebrate my sister’s 17th birthday. We’ve had such a laugh bombing it around the mountains, and teaching my littlest sister to ski for the first time ever. We’ve eaten, we’ve drunk, we’ve eaten some more, and … More Photo Of The Week: A Family Visit

Photo Of The Week: Catching Air

March 17, 2013

This week I headed back to Les Arcs for the remainder of the season, determined to make the most of my last month or so of this winter wonderland. And so that’s exactly what we did! Our first port of call was up the Saint Jacques lift to make an epic kicker jump at the … More Photo Of The Week: Catching Air

Living The Life In Les Arcs

February 26, 2013

So as some of you may know, I’ve been writing bi-weekly posts about my life here in Les Arcs for ski and snowboard site Natives.co.uk (find my first two posts here and my most recent post here) so I thought I’d keep you up to date with my life happenings on here too. This past … More Living The Life In Les Arcs

Photo Of The Week: Finally A Bluebird Day!

February 10, 2013

This week has been quite a frustrating one, as from last Sunday all the way through to Thursday night, we had a massive white-out of a snowstorm…the snow literally just didnt stop falling. Lifts were closed, the clouds descended, and our balcony filled up with snow. But on Friday, I looked out of the window … More Photo Of The Week: Finally A Bluebird Day!

Photo Of The Week: It’s Sledging Time!

February 3, 2013

This week has been pretty epic to tell you the truth. We’ve been out boarding a lot, we finally got our season lift passes sorted and in the middle of the week we all got in one of those crazy childish moods and went out sledging late at night. And when I say sledging, I … More Photo Of The Week: It’s Sledging Time!

Photo Of The Week: Everybody’s Going Boarding

January 27, 2013

This week I managed to get my hands on a lift pass, so I headed up the mountain to really test my snowboarding skills. And while I did fall over quite a bit (you should see the bruises on my knees), I actually wasn’t half bad. There were a few hairy moments but overall it … More Photo Of The Week: Everybody’s Going Boarding

Photo Of The Week: A Snowy Mountain View

January 20, 2013

Just over two weeks ago I moved to the French ski resort of Les Arcs to spend the next 4 months enjoying the snowy mountains and learning how to snowboard (an item that’s been on my bucket list for quite some time now). And while I’ve been here I’ve been taking some epic photos, mainly … More Photo Of The Week: A Snowy Mountain View
