I am absolutely thrilled to have been selected as an Ambassador for Ratoong, a rapidly-growing website whose aim is to help skiers and snowboarders to compare, search and rate ski resorts – like Trip Advisor for skiers!
As a middle-aged lady with a dodgy knee, I am not your archetypal Snow-Sports Ambassador, but what I lack in those departments, I make up with enthusiasm. Since we gave up work to travel, Mark and I have spent our winters on the snow with our four pooches, and prior to that, we skied for as many weeks as our jobs would allow.
I am delighted that Ratoong has given me the opportunity to demonstrate that snowsports are for everyone, regardless of age, ability or gender.
As Ambassador, I will be writing guest blogs throughout the year with the aim to inspire and inform. Here is my first one, which offers a few pointers on how to avoid injury and charts my sporting progress with an ACL (Anterior Cruiciate Ligament) deficient left knee.
A Life Without Ligaments – And How to Avoid It!
I hope it helps to show that if I can do it, anyone can!
And if you would like to check out some other useful blogs or add a review or rating of your own, favourite ski resort, why not head over to Ratoong.com? A great way to get a ski fix in isolation!
If you would like further updates on skiing, dogs, travel and building an expedition truck, please follow my blog by entering your email address, or click ‘Follow’ if you are a WordPress user.
Previous posts on taking small dogs skiing can be found in the Ski section of my blog.

Congrats! I look forward to seeing your reviews. I assume of European resorts? Or US? I too blew out my ACL when skiing, but I had it repaired and it’s actually better than my other knee!

Thank you! I am delighted that you have a ‘Bionic’ knee!
Mine was never repaired, so has a weakness, but it has done me proud. 🙂
Ratoong is for all resorts worldwide.
