The only way it was affordable for me was as a ski instructor, but then general life became unaffordable.
I’ve been lucky enough to go skiing and snowboarding a few times when I was younger, and it is totally worth it. Although it was way more affordable back then.
My ex bf last year was a big skier and got me into it. I bought a snowboard because it was a bit cheaper and I already knew how to skateboard, so teaching myself was mostly pretty straightforward
The biggest running resort in CT charges $75 on weekends but $40 on weekdays (and there’s a student discount so it’s only $30 on weekdays for me). It was immediately a lot of fun, so I worked a couple hours extra a week to afford going on my weekday off. Defo not feasible for a lot of people but it’s a great experience if you can manage it
I love skiing so much, but this is funny as hell
