Tom's day, age 10

I’ve been skiing since I was 4, so of course I’m not afraid! My mother says she’s the one who gets scared sometimes, because I’m so good at skiing…
Anyway, I love Val d’Isère. I did all my stars here and now I’m doing the Face de Bellevarde and the O-K too, the Critérium champions’ slope. Last year, I even got my arrow. I was one of the youngest and my parents were so proud!
What’s cool is that every year I ski with the same friends, and we always really go for it and do lots of jumps – it’s great!
And then, after skiing, we go to the skating rink or the swimming pool and we never stop laughing…
When I grow up, I’m going to bring my children here…
Because honestly, we have so much fun, and it’s so beautiful…
