Winter, skiing and a trip to Leipzig

End of January, Victor and I returned to Bormio, Livigno, Isolaccia/ San Colombiano and Santa Caterina Valfurva for our skiing holiday. We had great snow, slopes nearly to ourselves and covered 100 km per day.

See you in Livigno!


Mid February, Viola - an exchange student from the US - and I went to my hometown Leipzig and I showed her the city center. We strolled through the passages, listened to music in St Thomas church and had dinner at my aunt’s place.

Beginning of March, Victor and I joined the WinterCo on the Reiteralm - a week of skiing with alumni and friends. We had great sunny days, good snow and great food on and off the slopes.

A Sunday later we finished the ski season at the Hohe Salve. Weather was great, the snow turned to slush during the day.
