Winter is here, and the mountains are calling! If you’re gearing up for your first ski adventure and are feeling slightly anxious – it’s completely natural. Here are four essential tips to keep in mind for a stress-free experience down the snowy slopes.

Gear Up Like a Pro

Grabbing those ski poles and goggles might make you feel like a winter warrior, but it doesn’t make professional gear any less important! Invest in quality gear, especially an accurately-sizes helmet—because nothing says “I’m a pro” like protecting yourself while looking effortlessly cool on the slopes.

Pizza Before French Fries

No, we’re not talking about your après-ski feast. It’s the golden rule of skiing! When you’re cruising down the mountain, point those skis in a triangle shape to control your speed. Master the pizza move first, and then feel free to let loose with the French fries for some exhilarating speed.

Embrace the Bunny Hill

Before you conquer the double blacks, embrace the gentle ease of the bunny hill. It’s not just for beginners—it’s where you hone your skills and build the confidence to tackle more challenging settings. Plus, there’s no shame in starting from the bottom (literally).

Relax, It’s Not a Race

Speed enthusiasts, keep your pants on. Skiing is about enjoying the breathtaking scenery and the rush of the wind, not breaking speed records. So, slow down, take in the mountain vibes, and snap a selfie (not while you’re actively skiing, though). You’re not just skiing—you’re making long-lasting, frosty memories.

Vienna, the stunningly beautiful capital of Austria, is a magnificent city to visit at any time of year. However, most locals will tell you that to experience Vienna at its most authentic, you need to go in the winter months. Check out these tips on what to see and do in the city during the winter.

Winter Wonderland

Make the most of the cold season in Vienna, and join the locals at the Wiener Eistraum (Vienna Ice Dream), a vast open air ice rink in the middle of the city. Between November and March, enjoy relaxed skating in the afternoons, and then expect a bit more liveliness in the evenings as bars open and the DJ starts.

Dance the Night Away

The city has long been associated with ballroom dancing. January and February are the months to visit if you want to take part in one of nearly 300 balls around the city. Expect stunning architecture, beautiful music, and delicious canapés at each of the fantastic venues. You can join in, or just observe as hundreds of couples move in sync across the ballroom floor.

Spa Day

If the cold is getting to you, check into one of Vienna’s many luxury spas. With all the treatments available, there’s no need to brave the cold streets! After a day of pampering, you should feel ready to head out again and enjoy one of Vienna’s many high quality restaurants.

A stunning city at any time of year, Vienna really comes into its own in the winter.

Considering that it is peak season, everyone seems to wait for the summer to head on vacation. Still, there are some places that are worth visiting in winter, whether it be because of lower costs, surprisingly pleasant weather, or a sublime winter wonderland experience. Here are three cities that are worth heading to in the thick of winter.

Prague, Czech Republic

Filled with neat, cobbled streets, grand Romanesque architecture, and snow-capped mountains, Prague will show you just how beautiful winter can be. Between the city’s intriguing historical sites such as the Prague Castle and the Spanish Synagogue and its vibrant Czech cafes, weather is not even a consideration during a nonstop trip to this charming city.

Sydney, Australia

Because of being located in the southern hemisphere, Sydney is in peak summer during our winter months. In addition to water sports and the ocean, Sydney offers a range of worthwhile hot spots, including the Sydney Opera House, Bondi Beach, and kayaking adventures through the Syndey Harbor.

Honolulu, Hawaii

If you’re looking for a warm holiday season, then this Hawaiian island is your ideal destination. Honolulu boasts warm temperatures year-round, with plenty of seasonal activities on offer including an impressive Honolulu City Lights Christmas display at its city hall. Of course, you’ll also be able to enjoy a day in the sand on the island’s golden beaches.

Winter vacations come with a high price tag, and accommodation happens to be one of the biggest expenses. If you’re traveling on a budget, you can save a lot of money by cutting your lodging expenses and these three tips can help you do it with ease.

Stay With Your Loved Ones

Most people spend their winter vacation with family, and this can be a great money saver. If you have friends and family living out of town, you can consider staying with them this winter, especially if they live near a popular winter resort or a city with a festive Christmas market.

Avoid Winter Resorts

Mountain resorts are a pretty popular option for winter vacations, but they come with extremely high prices. You should avoid them at all costs, and consider booking cheaper accommodation in the local area if you can’t imagine your winter trip without visiting a ski resort.

Bring Some Company

Traveling alone is all fun and games, but it’s not really an affordable or festive option when it comes to winter vacations. You’ll have a much easier time renting a cozy cabin if you’re traveling with friends and family because this allows you to split the bill.

It’s still not too late to book a last-minute ski trip and enjoy the rest of the winter. If you’re an adult who never learned how to ski but would love to, here are three things to keep in mind.

Don’t Buy Equipment

Skiing is a pretty expensive hobby and you definitely don’t want to start buying the equipment before you even learn how to ski. Borrow everything you can from friends and rent the rest. Whatever you decide to do, resist the urge to invest a lot of money into something you don’t know you’ll like.

Choosing Resort

For the first-time skiers, green and blue slopes are the best choice. Make sure the resort you’re visiting has everything that a beginner needs, as well as that there’s something else to do if you end up hating skiing.

Tutor

It’s a good idea to find a tutor that will work with you one-on-one. Don’t expect too much of your first trip and give yourself a few days to master the beginner’s technique. If you’re going to a resort for a week, don’t expect to ski every single day; your body and brain need breaks!

As the days get darker faster and you have to don all your winter clothes, you will be forgiven for wanting to escape to a sunnier location. Check out these vacation destinations to boost your serotonin levels.

St Lucia, Carribean

For velvet white sands and picturesque views, this Caribbean island is a must for some Winter sun. With average temperatures in the late ’20s and early ’30s, relax and enjoy a cocktail on the beach.

The Canary Islands, Spain

The Canary Islands have hot weather all year round. They are a great place to escape the cold and you can choose an island to suit the kind of vacation you want. From the relaxed mood in Lanzarote to the party island of Tenerife, there is something for everyone.

Sydney, Australia

December and January are the summer months for Australia. It can get very hot so make sure you wear lots of sun cream. Expect white velvet-like beaches and clear turquoise waters. Locals are very friendly, so expect to spend most of your time smiling!

Bali, Indonesia

Although December and January are meant to be the rainy season in Indonesia, most days will be dry and very sunny. Stay in a luxury 4-star hotel for less than $20 a night and immerse yourself in the traditional culture.

Cancun, Mexico

Mexico is a great place for winter sun. Built for the all-inclusive holiday, you will be treated like royalty in the hotels. You will be spoilt for choice for a range of excursions. Just remember, the more inland you go, the hotter it gets!
