Two weeks ago, I went with my student to cross-country ski. She has experience; but for me, it was my second time. We did 5 km. I couldn't move for three days. I enjoyed this day a lot, but the other three, not too much.
My experience was incredible. I enjoyed every moment. She taught me how I needed to put my foot when I took a hill. That was funny because, in one moment, I couldn't move and she told me "You can take off your skis." That helped, too. I wasn't sure if I was stuck/trapped there for life; I couldn't advance- Ha ha ha! But when I got to the hill, I thought: "Wowwwww! That is incredible!" I went down with too much speed, but because she taught me how to position my skis, so I didn't find it scary.
