A week in Paris: day by day itinerary
Skiing in the French Pyrenees
I just returned from enjoying three wonderful days skiing in the French Pyrenees with my brother and it was so refreshing! After four years since the last time I skied, I'm glad to report that I survived and that I also had lots of fun and spent some quality time. We visited three ski stations in three days with my Dad's campervan. Follow our adventure!
