If someone is delighted with the beauty of the Hochjoch Glacier, he should come to Maso Corto. Especially when you feel at least confident while skiing - the routes here are mostly steep and quite difficult. Maso Corto (Kurzas) is the main ski resort of Val Senales , the Italian valley lying at the foot of the aforementioned glacier.

When it is too dark outside the window, the days are gray and unpleasant, you want to be in a place where it is warm and soothing - for example, in the thermal park relaxation pool. Snow may not spoil us, but the temperatures - especially at night - can make many people dream of a proper heating of the bones. Is there a better place for it than the thermal springs? There are plenty of healing water baths both in Poland (it is enough to mention Terma Bania in Bukowina Tatrzańska or thermal pools in Zakopane) and abroad. To take advantage of the wide range of swimming pools, saunas and jacuzzis, you do not have to travel far.

Far from Poland, in Krasnodar Krai, there is a resort where in a few weeks there will be thousands of ski lovers. Russia's Sochi is the proud host of the 22nd Winter Olympics . For many it is simple - if skiing, then probably the Alps or other mountain ranges rising up towards the sky from the European continent. Not on another one, because it is too far, and besides, too expensive. However, when someone who is not afraid of hundreds of kilometers decides to go on a winter trip, and can afford a fairly large expense, the boundaries may shift significantly. As a result, it can focus on resorts that a skier with a thinner wallet is unlikely to think of. For example, about the famous Russian resort of Sochi, located on the Black Sea.

This is by no means an article about the promotion of drunk skiing. Bania is a charming, intimate ski resort, perfect for a family trip and learning to skate on two boards. Those who love skiing and counting down the days to winter holidays, probably dream of medium or large ski resorts with a wide range of lifts and slopes. They can't wait to test their skills, get an adrenaline rush and gain the recognition of the observers. On the other hand, beginners do not always feel comfortable in such resorts, especially when they see the performances of advanced skiers on the slopes, and they stand on skis, swaying with every movement. In such a situation, it may be a good idea to go to a smaller resort and gain self-confidence on specially prepared slopes, among other skiing adepts. Learning is then great fun, without stress, that someone will look at us disdainfully.

There are places where you can relax like nowhere else. There are no crowds, noisy discos and no traffic jams. One of such places is Montmorillon, the Book Town in France. In the era of smartphones, tablets, computer games, which more and more people play passionately while driving a tram or bus, it is less and less common to find someone who reads an ordinary paper book. Some even make the bold thesis that hardly anyone reads them today. However, this thesis is not so much bold as it is untrue - there are still many lovers of literature on paper. Maybe you just see less of them on a daily basis.
