Skipping an opportunity for a free 8 weeks in Austrailia only giving up skiing a few months? How is this even a question?
I guess I'm not dedicated enough to any hobby.

You can ski every year of your life. You only get to go to Australia (and New Zealand...did I mention New Zealand??) 1 to 0 times in your life.

I mean that's my thinking too but I do understand the whole work to live mental conflict going on here.Calvinball wrote:I can understand the mindset, but at the same time:[user not found] wrote: As a skier, I get it.. nothing compares in the world to it.

You will regret not going more than you will regret losing *only* 8 weeks of skiing. I went to China despite missing out on a lot of family things and my own kids.... and I do not regret it at all. Once in a lifetime opportunities are exactly that.
Go.
