Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

vreynolds, Welcome to  You might be better off starting this as a separate post, it is a bit specialised after all. There is a recent gay themed post in the Apres Zone which may help too.

I don't think whitegold is old. Only somebody young could have so little experience of life to be so obsessed with image.

I'd put it into the trips section. There are a few gay 's and probably some other who may be interested. jb1970, Whitegold and Latchigo may be interested.

Be warned, doing seasons is more addictive than crack cocaine - and more expensive!
Look at the Tignes 07/08 snow reports for some idea as to what to expect. Try to go to a large ski area, with a good park & loads of off-piste (you WILL get bored of piste-bashing every day), preferably with other resorts near by (the Tarentaise is especially good in this respect). If the resort you are in is popular with Snowheads, all the better - someone to go skiing with (and to buy you drinks - hint, hint!).

You know it makes sense.

Already sorted out work for next season as a bar manager with Equity. dudes at <url>Ski Jobs</url> seem to be pretty quick off the mark this year.

I agree with hels t, if at all possible don't work. I've just finished season no.5 in 3vallees as a snowbum and it doesn't have to cost a fortune. Luckily I manage to save enough from working as a contractor through the summer to finance my snow idling lifestyle, but theres plenty of ways to live cheaply, changeover day may be a pain for everyone else but for the snowbum can be a goldmine of free vinchaud & hot dinners...

littleblue, you should really tell us more about your seasons. You seem to have it sussed. Yes, for anyone not tied to the ghastly Saturday comings and goings, it's the best day on the slopes.

littleblue, Season no.5 as a snowbum - good work (or good not work as the case seems to be)! I agree that it doesn't have to cost a fortune. I'm hoping to get another season in next year (or certainly a few months worth).

littleblue, friend of ours spent transfer days last season walking about the airport dressed as a penguin and frightening small children. This paid him 100€ plus lunch.
Not surehow he's going to describe this activity on his cv.

hels_t, how much does normally cost you for your season? Where have you been going? The same place each time or a different one. I'd like to hear about your 5 seasons. I take it you save up the money in the summer months for the whole winter?
