So its over. One season as a Lift Operator in one of the best ski resorts in New Zealand. It has gone past shockingly fast, is all I can say. Seems like last week I was at the interview and now its all done! Its been fantastic though; Ive learnt how to ski, how to snowboard, how to throw children around and how stupid members of the public can be. Its been a steep learning curve.
I go home with not only new skills and new friends, but also a load of shit that I can't bear to part with.... primarily a pair of skis and a rather fetching shell suit, as well as a number of excellent hats. Its been a successful season.
Its now time for another road trip! I have a car rented for a 9 day journey from Queenstown to Auckland, so I may well be updating a little more in the next few days.
