A ski instructor in Austria

So I worked for one week now and slowly everything starts to get familiar. Last friday I got a the day off and a very experienced ski instructor (>12 years of being a ski instructor) showed me all the cool off piste areas of the St Anton and Stuben.

In the weekend of New Year's Eve I could explore the area further on. (You can imagine that the interested in taking ski lessons was below average on New Year's Day.) We found some real steep descents through out the woods with amazing snow conditions. Later on I will record all these slopes on www.everytrail.net so everyone can come to Arlberg and fully enjoy these fantastic off piste possibilities.

On saterday afternoon I arrived in st Anton and checked in within the Skischule "St Anton". Everything was arranged very smoothly: signed my contract, received my ski instructor suit, and got the key of my appartment. The next morning I had to start right away....

Without having the chance to explore the ski area I had to start right away. Luckly the guest in my first private lesson was a beginner and we could start with the nearest easy piste. The second day I got a private lesson with a intermediate guest, still hadn't got a chance to explore the area. With the ski area map in my pocket I managed to find the right slopes. (except that one time that I skied down a closed piste)...

Hopefully I will get some free time the next days to find my way around in st Anton.Arlberg ski area. to be continued....
