Hi,

I'm looking to join or book a trip if possible. I ski at a intermediate level, and unfortunately don't have any friends who ski so tend to go on my own. The only thing is that I unfortunately cannot go from the 10th till the 28th Feb, apart from that I am open to any offers or suggestions???

I've done Tignes a few times, would probably prefer somewhere else if I'm honest as I was last there in March. Although, depending on the deal/cost I may consider it as it's the only option up to now!

Do you have any details yet?

Not worked up anything yet, looking for interested parties and doesn't have to be Tignes, Meribel and Val d'isere are possibles too. Would rather get 4-6 people interested in a trip in march then discuss options etc and get an agreement.
regards Brian

HI JustBHoos.
I found myself in a similar position a few years ago and have since done four weeks with Action Outdoors over the last few years. I actually got the the point where my skiing was a higher standard than my friends. Honestly i was a bit wary at first but it worked for me and probably about 40 or 50 percent of the people there are travelling alone. I also didnt want to be the new boy in an existing group. I stayed in 4 or 6 person dorms with them but they do twin rooms two and can put you with someone - have always met cool people of a similar standard to me. There is a code DL2014 you can use for another £10 off too - unlimited times for unlimited people. They do complete beginners up to expert level/ off piste and its super cheap. I have done two weeks with them last year for slightly more than one week the last time i went to a chalet with friends. Its worth a look. I have been to both Tignes and Val d with them before.

Our main trip to Tignes in March is fully booked, but we are going to Chamrousse on a 'cheapy' leaving via Bristol airport on Saturday 25th Jan. Apartment, flights, ski pass and ski/boot hire for about £350. A couple of spaces are still left. We are all intermediates.

Still got nothing booked as yet, but I'm optimistic something will be sorted & booked in the next few weeks. I have spoke to a few people on here and there's interest to get something booked, but it would be great to get few more people involved. A mixed group would be better for sharing rooms within the accommodation, and it's certainly a case of the more the merrier for me. Looking to get the most out of the skiing myself, and not a big drinker so not looking to party hard, but certainly some good food, wine and company is a must!

Although the location & date isn't by any means finalised - hopefully early March! Manchester airport is the likely/preferred departure point with being North West based. If anyone is interested get in touch.

I am looking to join a group...I am flexible with the dates and location as long as there is opportunity for a little freestyle. Anyone who is putting together a holiday please let me know.
