Summary:
Just back from one of the best holiday experiences of my life! Started the week with only 6 hours of very beginner knowledge on a dry slope, to leaving 6 days later skiing down the black slopes. What a resort to learn, with wide greens and blues right at the top of the mountain to find your feet at your own pace. But I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the Hunters lot. I worked with Phil mostly as he took me under his wing and tailored his teaching to better my learning every day. His patience, encouragement, and light hearted but structured teachings helped me learn the quickest I’ve ever learned anything ever. I will forever be grateful for him teaching me my new passion and skill! He’s also just a fun and friendly guy who quickly became one of our group of 10 as we all loved him so much. Thank you so much Phil!
Big thanks to Yuri and Neil too, two another amazing instructors full of knowledge, patience, and kindness.
I honestly couldn’t recommend hunters more, from the depot to the slopes, to the restaurant and transport recommendations in and around town, they truly just adopt you and look after you as if family, in the beautiful resort of Borovets. I can’t wait to go back!
