This winter has been special in many ways:

First we have been blessed with nearly too much – is this really possible? – snow in Champoluc, Monterosa, where we have our Italian Alps’ HQ.

Meter after meter snow filled up all streets, roofs and nevertheless slopes of the mountains here around, giving us and all our travel guests an incredible ski season.

Thank you Mother Nature!

The second special thing this winter has been the teamwork of all our staff:

Pontus sat at the head quarter in Nacka, Sweden, and worked out all technical solutions we needed, Pedro drove the strategies around SEO in the meantime as Barto and Agnes put together huge piles of fresh content for www.monterosa.com and our social media, at the same time as they took care of our precious guests in Champoluc. This was possible only through the valuable project managing of Nastassja, rushing from her job at Stockholm University to the head quarter in Nacka to run our Tuesday meetings.

Even Pascal was involved in the team, with important news updating from the Aosta Valley.

Thank you incredible staff at TheAlps!

This made it possible for us to revolutionize the content of www.monterosa.com from a pretty spontaneous flow into what makes a real web site. I believe we can now say that it is clear what we do and what we offer at our home page, giving us now a better chance to fill up with summer content and other hopefully interesting issues for our visitors and for our travel guests from now on.

Third think that made it special this season is the never ending patience, service willingness and grace of the various hotels, taxi drivers, restaurants and ski rental we relay upon to make a vacation possible for all! No matter how busy you are, there is always a smile and a hand when needed. You are the best, and without you, no travels!

What, without all of you dear guests, who went to Monterosa and to the Alps with us this winter? I want to personally thank all of you! I promise myself to send you the pictures I have taken on the way through this season.

And we wish to see you again this summer on the trails of the beautiful mountains surrounding us.

Remember that we also go to the sea! The Medirranean is only 2 hours from here, so why not following us to the beach or even to the magic land of Sardinia? You can find some ideas on www.monterosa.com under “other destinations”.
