It’s that time of year again: the annual ski and snowboard trip.
Regular readers of this blog will know that this happens each and every year, provided a global pandemic isn’t currently underway. Last year we went to Park City and this year we’re off to Lyon and Les 3 Vallées. Is there anything better than urban + mountain? I don’t think so.
This year’s is also unique in that I selfishly upgraded it into a slash bachelor party for myself. And that’s why I’m calling it the 13th annual, plus.
So what should you expect on this blog for the next 10 days or so?
You should expect more travel, food, and snowboarding-related content, as well as more photos. I generally never travel without my Fujifilm. I’m also thinking about experimenting with more real-time posts, and possibly even multiple posts per day. Basically something more akin to a social feed. We’ll see if that happens.
Regardless, if beautiful European cities and sublime mountains aren’t your thing, you may want to check back in early February for our regularly scheduled city building programming.

Hi Brandon, Great choice for # 13! You will absolutely love Lyon which BTW is the birthplace of Nouvelle Cuisine.
Try and get a resy for either La Maison Troisgros, or Paul Bocuse · Gourmet Restaurant. Either one will likely be the most expensive food experience in your life, but will be the most cherished for the rest of you life – seriously! If you get into Troisgros with a few other people, have one of you order their iconic dish; Salmon et Sorel as a side dish and share. There is a reason it’s been on the menu for something like 65 years. There are also a number of smaller affordable
“holes in the wall” that have great food. Hope you have a big expense account!
Have fun shredding as well, and I do like the notion of multiple pics per day…a video or 2 would be cool!
All the best.

What mountains do you guys have lined up? I skied the French Alps last year and was absolutely hooked, no lift ticket fees, little to no line ups and better food than north america. Can’t beat it!
We are at Les 3 Vallées. Incredible here.
