I see you're in Canada Do you ski/snowboard?
I'm tossing up whether to do the work/ski in Canada next year. It's $650 to register and they have resort recruiters in Australia and they gurantee you a job (albiet shitty) on a field + lift pass.
Canada seems

well, i haven't tried but once... (and not on a big hill at all) it was with two friends that are melting for winter to come to go and visit quebec again... but they go like... way too fast for me to tag along.
one day i might practice, as it is an obvious blast.
they say that snowboarding and mushrooms or mdma is glorious.

Skiing is handsdown the most fun I've ever had, I'm just itching to do my Level 1/2 instructor courses once I tighten up my own skiing.
Sucks trying to develop your skills periodically during short overseas holidays, fucking hot ass Australia blows for ski fields. That's why I wouldn't mind doing some kitchen work or something for a low wage in Canada for a free lift pass.
Plus the weed will be significantly better

Oh yeah, fucking snowboarding posers, especially female ones.
Brand new boards, boots, designer clothes, funky beanies and sweet ass googles... then they can't actually even snowboard and sit around on their ass in big groups right in the middle of runs having a chat.

not underestimating at all, i totally agree! i would be nervous as hell up there, but the experience would totally be worth it. i mean look at that view! i would risk a deadly fall to see that, and just the bragging rights alone would be pay enough. chances are you really wouldn't fall, but even if you did, that is a totally amazing way to die! now getting paid to do it? excellent.
it seems to me that doing it everyday would be pretty damn stressful at first. but right now i'm thinking about being comfortable up there after have the job for long enough. i can imagine an awesome feeling, probably very peaceful, standing up at the top of that tower like its your own quiet corner of the universe. looking over your home and the world.
man... this video is so much cooler now that im stoned!
