Winterbreak seems sooo long, once you finished the semester’s work. However, with jetlag, holiday season and me constantly thinking that I still have to study, my way to relax involved four days skiing in the Alps. Here are some impressions and explanations for my international friends to whom skiing might seem a little too freezing 😉
-
- This is a “Germknoedel”: it is a fluffy dough, filled with plum jam and typically served with hot vanilla sauce, topped with a poppy seed & sugar mix.
-
- On top of the mountain, there are many restaurants. One of my favorites is the “Pardorama”, because you have a scenic view.
-
- On sunny days in March or April, many people lay down on this area and enjoy hot water with rum, which is called “Jagertee”
-
- the mountains you can see here are actually on the other side of the valley. Deep down is Ischgl.
-
- This is where you arrive with the cable car from Ischgl, the Idalp.
-
- Every day of the season at 02.00pm, Apres-ski starts at this lodge: Paznauner Taja. You can hear seriously stupid music that you will recognize even if you do not know German 🙂
