Hucksters Budget Ski HolidaysHucksters Budget Ski Holidays

Say hello to our newest team!

Meet our fab bunch of seasonaires...

A Hucksters holiday wouldn't be complete without our amazing bunch of staff. Always on hand with a big smile, ready to help. They're the first people you meet when you arrive and the last you say goodbye to when you finish for another season. All our staff are passionate about skiing and snow boarding and really do love their jobs! Well, who wouldn't when you get to work in one of the best places on earth?! This season we had six new faces join our team in Vallandry and one face you may recognise back again. Meet Joe, Leanora, Steve, Ben, Holly, Bee and James...

How would you describe yourself? A coiled spring ready for action!

Skier/ Boarder? Skier

Best thing about the season so far? Amazing powder - we've had so much this season.

Skier/ Boarder? Skier

Best thing about the season so far? I get to pursue my passion for skiing.

Where are you going from here? I'm a chef in the summer - cheffing is another of my passions. This year is a a little taster for me... I'm thinking about coming back next year with my partner as well!

Ben

Ben

How would you describe yourself? Lay back, let loose. (words to definitely live by :-) ).

Skier/ Boarder? Boarder (the only one in this team!)

Best thing about the season so far? Aiming to nail a back flip (we'll let you know how he gets on ;-) ).

Where are you going from here? I'm out here with my girlfriend, Holly, so after the season finishes we'll be off travelling in our camper van across Europe. I can't wait to head to the beach!

Holly

Holly

How would you describe yourself? Lives for adventures.

Skier/ Boarder? Skier

Best thing about the season so far? The tree runs in Vallandry. They are so beautiful this time of the year.

Where are you going from here? Hit the road with Ben in our camper van and travel across Europe at the end of the season.

Bee

Bee

How would you describe yourself? Quiet, wild one.

Skier/ Boarder? Skier

Best thing about the season so far? Nailed a baguette. (This might sound odd but there is a technique to making the perfect technique – hint, add lettuce first to stop the bread going soggy from sauce. Bee's now a master at making the perfect baguette quickly.)

Where are you going from here? I'll be heading off to South East Asia to work there for the summer.

James

James

How would you describe yourself? Always here to work the snow. (James is great at coming out at short notice if needed)

Skier/ Boarder? Skier

Best thing about the season so far? I'm a Firefighter in the London Fire Brigade and get five weeks holiday off a year, so this works perfectly for me to come out and ski!

Where are you going from here? Back to the brigade.

P.L.

You don't have to buy the snowshoes, ice grippers and trekking poles you'll need on mountain walks. If you don't have the necessary kit for hiking, Evolution 2 offer kit for hire.

The wider your snowplough is, the slower your speed will be.
