Last weekend, my friends and I decided to go to skiing together. As we arrived, we could see the slopes cover in a blanket of white, which waited for us to overcoming them. We eager rented our skis and snowboards and made our way to the beginner’s slope. Some of us were experiencing skiers, when others were trying it for the first time. We encouraged each other but shared tips on how to manage the slopes. As we slid down hill, a sense of joy filled the air. We challenged us to tackle more challenging runs. Skiing together not only allowed us to enjoy the thrill of the sport but strengthen our friendship.
