This is Xavi. He has worked as a ski instructor since 2014. He has already worked 10 seasons between Spain, Japan, Australia and Switzerland sharing his passion for this amazing sport.
Why did you choose to teach Snowsports?
I started skiing at the age of 5 years old. I have always enjoyed this sport and being in the mountains, and what else could be better than sharing this passion with others and making it my profession? As I grew up in the ski industry, I enjoy more the technical aspect and want to share this knowledge with others.
What do you do in summers?
In the European summer, I do a Southern Hemisphere season in Australia. That means that I can keep skiing all year around, chasing the endless winter.
Why did you choose Zermatt?
I grew up skiing in the Pyrenees in the north of Spain. As a young kid, I have always dreamt about skiing in the Alps, the best mountains of the world. So, Zermatt is a beautiful town, one of the biggest ski areas, where you can ski in Italy and Switzerland, and with the highest ski lift in Europe. All these aspects make it a special place for me.
Where is your favourite part to ski?
My favourite part to ski is in the glacier, close to the Furggsattel chairlift. Where the slopes are wide, with a good inclination and the snow is always in a perfect condition.
