Quick update...

Hmm. It seems that Canadian ski resorts have too many instructors, so I'm probably not going to apply to be one. I'm now thinking of being a ski, snowboard and boot fitter/technician- you work morning and evenings, so I could ski during the day. Also, because we start early, I'd hopefully be able to get accommodation on the mountain. Finally, ski hire should be nice and cheap- so I can get the best kit!

All will be revealed when I go to the hiring clinic in a week's time...
