I learned to ski at Glenshee in Scotland in 1994 and taught my first lesson as an instructor in 2009, also in Scotland. Since then skiing has taken me to Australia and New Zealand, Japan, Argentina and Chile, Canada, and Western Europe across 23 winter seasons. When I’m not skiing I spend my time practicing yoga, cycling, watching rugby, snowboarding, or, most probably, talking about skiing.
