I grew up in Slovenia, close to the Julian Alps. Early on, my parents put me on skis and skates, and the winter sports enthusiasm hasn't left me since. I also enjoy cross-country skiing and have been a keen snowboarder for the past 20 years.
In my view, an excellent winter holiday is always a mix of recreation and relaxation. The fresh mountain air, beautiful scenery, well-groomed pistes, catching some sun on a mountain hut terrace and good company - what else does a person need?
