Borovets 26th Jan - First Timer

Never been skiing before. I've always fancied it but never got round to it. I'm well travelled but never felt as nervous/excited as this before.

Staying at the Iglika from the 26th Jan with some friends, 2 have been before.

Just wanted to say Hi to everyone and wondered if I'm getting too old to start doing this sort of thing.....I'm only 36.

Cant believe how excited I am, I'm starting to ramble, like a big kid.
Yippee.

You're as old as you want to be!! Take cod liver oil for the joints and ibruprofen gel for the aches and pains! If you can still ramble like a bit kid (the same as the rest of us) then you'll fit in no problem.

Unlike any other type of holiday you'll make soooo many more friends skiing, everyone is there from all different walks of life. It's great fun and you'll have a great laugh. Go with an open mind and be prepared to laugh at yourself as much as others.

Stayed at the Iglika ...

Stayed at the Iglika twice before and no complaints at all.
