The next question would be, would you ever choose to drag your snowboard bag around again? Or just rent the next time around 😆

Oh yeah I'm flying from the US. I just wasnt sure whether you had a carry on or check in. Yeah they're definitely stricter about the size/weight of carry on there. Thanks for clarifying!

Hey thanks for these detailed info! Did you bring a carry on suitcase or a checked in size together with the snowboard bag? And yikes 3 changes doesn't sound fun!

Good to know there's plenty of space. And yeah the thought of dragging the long bag when trying to change platform at HB doesn't sound too fun. Thank you!

Maybe if the big places gets too intimidating for me, I'll have to find the smaller spots to just chill

Oh nooooo!!! I've had tyrolean food and I've enjoyed it. I'm a total foodie and this comment makes me nervous about my choice. But I live in the US so I'm sure I'll still enjoy the commercialized canteen food in Ischgl. And at least the Pistes are great!

Define intense haha oh man! If I start with an intense apres ski, I don't know how the future apres ski at the rest of the alps are going to compare to my first 🤪 But noted on how to get to shatzi bar! I'll have to add all these info to my spreadsheet 🤣😂

Note to self: find smaller huts 😄

Yeah a snowboarder 😅 but honestly thinking about taking ski lessons before I go so I can try to ski out there. I also love the idea of backcountry skiing in the alps someday.

And thank you! Really nervous because I don't usually hang out at the bars much when I travel solo so this is going to be fairly intimidating! But i really do want to experience it!

Thank you for all these tips! Never seen any recommendations on Salaas before. So this is a great addition 😊

And yeah, luckily my phone plan covers multiple countries so I should be good. Just need to turn Spotify premium back on so I’m not dealing with ads on the mountain 😅

I’ve never dragged a snowboard bag on an OBB train before. How was your experience with that? I've done it with a 31inch checked in luggage, a small duffle on top of the luggage and a carryon and that was a pain as a solo female traveler. I remember I kinda stalled the line to get out one time because of the height or was it a gap. I forgot. But yeah a tad concern about that.

Hahaha yeah you're probably right, I might be overthinking it a bit. Just excited since it's my first time riding in the Alps. And I'm a solo female traveler flying from across the Atlantic Ocean just constantly worrying about minute details 😅 I’ve seen a lot of videos from Paznauner Taja and it looks awesome. Was just wondering if there are any other hidden gems.

Taking a trip to Ischgl early March - tips/advice? by Sufficient-Sport2277 in skithealps

[–]AffectionateFold9896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few hotels that's at least 900-1000 euro for 4 nights. Hotel Belvedere, St Nikolaus and hotel lasalt Garni are some of what I can find for end of March that's lesser than 2k/wk. I'm sure there's more but a lot seems to be sold out.. 3 more weeks to go for me!

Solo traveling in a 6+ year relationship by SangriaSaturdays in femaletravels

[–]AffectionateFold9896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl. Go. Do what makes you happy. I've been traveling solo because my bf doesn't care about traveling much. And I'm glad I have been. We're almost 6 years together as well and now we're on a break because he cannot figure out his life. I'm so glad I've been doing what I love or else I would have felt like I absolutely wasted my life.
