where to 2005?

I went to Bansko for my first ever ski trip back in March, and absolutely loved the place. I really enjoyed the skiing there, but am wondering if I should head back there to check out the runs I never got to see as a complete beginner or move onto somewhere new. By my last day I'd done a couple of the blue runs in Bansko (2 and 10, or maybe 5 and 10) so am also wondering where I'll start off again next time - according to the Balkan brochure you're only intermediate after a couple of trips, ...

By my last day I'd done a couple of the blue runs in Bansko (2 and 10, or maybe 5 and 10) so am also wondering where I'll start off again next time - according to the Balkan brochure you're only intermediate after a couple of trips, but when I was there we only had complete beginners and people who had worn skis (random I know), or skied a very long time ago. I recently skied for a day in New Zealand, where the pistes were very different to Bansko and so I'm now torn between going back, as I had planned on doing from the day I left, or trying out as many new places as possible. What would the voices of experience suggest?

re: where to 2005?

Hi has to be Pamporovo great place. smaller than Bansko and a resort not a village. I have been 4 times and love the place. But hey if you liked Bansko go again! As for ski group do not worry you will not have to repeat learn to ski. You will be asked if you have skied before and will be required to show your best moves! and they will group you accordingly Very Happy
