Skiing/Snowboarding

Skiing/Snowboarding

Thinking of trying one of these eastern european resorts this year - has anyone been to slovenia, serbia, romania, etc?

i went to bulgaria years ago...it wa smarch when we went & was so warm you could ski/board in a bikini (we saw this)

was really good though & mega cheaps

also there was an awesome pizza place on the top of the mountain

pizza on a mountain? I can get that in Italy - I fancy some traditional bulgarian fried egg, beetroot and beef cassarole if I'm sacrificing piste

They look loads cheaper than western europe and the soviet style ski resorts are very appealling

Skiing is absolutley awesome.

I want to go so I can keep it up, last time I went was 3 or 4 years ago

Its so expensive though for what it is - defo need to try some cheaper places than france!!

it gets you well fit too!!!

For a raffish youg Jew like yourself I would have thought you'd be eyeing the Chilean slopes, certainley seem to be the en vouge destination if you want to escape the french/italian scmultz..

Chile is a little too raffish for me - I like the bleak soviet undertones of eastern europe.

I personally feel if your splashing out 2 grand on hotel and flights it makes more sense to visit Chile in the summer when you can take in the entirity of its views

A lad I work with went to Berovets (sp) in Bulgaria. He said it was cheap as chips and there were quite a few long runs. There was also an abundance of hookers, though whether they stand on street corners in -20 temps i dont know.

I really want to go to canada this year but the prices are fucking extortionate so might look into these places aswell.

armin van ex macdonalds worker wants 2 go 2 canada

Who said anything about hotels?!

There is a certain je ne sais quoi, secret service like charm that goes with holidaying in the ski resort of choice for the discerning soviet cold war powermongers of the past though..

pre season faux snow in andorra for me this year

oh yes, b4 going on holiday i think u shud cut ure side burns off

lol so far on bulgaria I can conclude I'm likely to see skiers in bikini's and hookers freezing their tits off... it sounds like the new amsterdam

Joe you'd love it

The pizza beat what i had in Rome even tho it was many moons ago

romania is supposed to be very good too

Den - that's where we went

there was an ex-downhiller who owned this hut that was actually a pub...him & his wife were class

Haven't a scooby we'll be booking it shortly...

I take it you've been before?

nah always fancied pas de la casa in my sociable days... but crowds and cheap beer don't have the same appeal they used to.

cheers for the advice ruth.... you ever thought of writing for lonely planet... I'm starting to think you've traveled through more countries than the Jews
