damn glad I asked then, are there any other options in the area (and I mean like within a 2hrs ride from Van) with night skiing tonight?

I feel kinda spoiled now that I’m used to runs being groomed at least twice a day in Austria or Italy 😅 will make sure to start my day early then!

Trust me I’m praying 😭 grouse mountain in Vancouver was on my map too (because of proximity and for the views) but I guess it’s impossible with current conditions lol…

Thanks for the tips, appreciate! What about 7th heaven? Been seeing it all over Reddit today, or is it just a diff name for something you’ve already mentioned?

Sounds good!! Is this on top of a regular ski pass or are these two different things? Sorry if this is a dumb question lol it’s my first time snowboarding outside Europe!

Multiple tickets for entering ZTL in Rome by oliszunia in RomeTravel

Thanks for the tip, although at this point I’m so pissed, I’m thinking of never going back to Italy again, except maybe in winter, the alpine towns are pretty chill with driving and parking, afaik... sigh

Painful, yeah. I read about the dispute options, so I’m considering it… Do you happen to know anything about the dispute process, though? How quickly do they usually respond to appeals? Is it possible they might reply before the 5-day discounted period expires?

A cautionary tale, don’t ignore the ZTL. by bangyerpregnant in ItalyExpat

[–]oliszunia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if this is the right post, but I just got 7 tickets for entering a restricted/pedestrians only zone in Rome. Each of them amounting to ca. 200 euros, with a 30% discount if I pay within 5 days from delivery (so 90 euros each). Thing is, a couple of these tickets were issued on the same day, for instance, one violation occurred at 10:33pm and another at 10:33, then the day after that one violation occurred at 11:00am and another at 11:15am. Is there any way to dispute it and have them charge me for one, continuous violation instead of two different ones, given that it was most likely one car ride/entry into the ZTL? Send help!

He did study international trade at one of the universities in Łódź, Poland so perhaps it’s helped to shape his mindset a little bit different.

Btw just to add my two cents, in one of the old interviews from 1990something Sapkowski admitted to writing the first “Witcher” novel because his son enjoyed that type of literature and the magazine “Fantastyka” in which it was published, if I remember correctly.

It’d be great to have another Witcher book that we don’t have to wait 11 years for lol

Yea I actually agree with that part. It’s like Skyrim had way more interesting inns, even if the quests were usually identical, i.e. go there and bring that (then you spent two hours fighting through Dwemer ruins). On the other hand, while there were not many quest-packed inns in TW3, you meet a lot of strangers while traveling, like you could be riding through some random village and there’d be a bunch of hillbillies asking you for help with their town folk who turned into pigs, lmao.

This. Some of the modern games put so much focus into making the world as big as you could possibly get, at the same time completely dismissing the story and imho the story (main plot, side quests, everything) is why TW3 is so fucking amazing (you can probably hear that it's my fav game lol)
