I listened to the stories of skiers, my friends... Getting up early in the morning, getting dressed and on the slopes as soon as possible. And there, until dusk, by cable car up the mountain, downhill on skis. And just one more lap, one more wire.
Skiing must be loved a lot, it is a physically tiring sport.
I like activities when I bring my muscles to the point of complete exhaustion, but I've only skied once in my life, when I went down a hill in my neighborhood and crashed at the end of the trail 🤕 and then I never skied again.
Walking in the snow, snowballing, sledding and sliding are possible, but skiing on a steep slope is not🙂
Maybe I would dare to get on skis in the cross-country skiing option, but I don't have company for that, nor where to ski...

You need somebody to teach you, it's kinda impossible to learn that by yourself ;) Cross-country skiing is a bit easier, but still, having somebody to at least show you how to is quite handy :)
I think I'm too old for a beginner skier now.
But I would definitely get to Rifugio Valtellina for pizza while walking 😀
My girlfriend also started as an adult ;)
