Been thinking about doing one for a while now and decided while I'm young and don't have any tie downs, (house,kids etc) now would be a great time to do one.
Question is who's done one and anyone got any tips?
Thinking of either morzine ( as I've been there a few times so know the area well) or whistled (expensive to get to)
Also I'm 99% sure I would need a job out there unless I win lottery soon.
Thanks is guys any advice would be great.
p.s don't want to sell golf to free up money which is y I would like a job.

My mate is out in the Alps at the moment, in Chamonix, the second year running.
He works out there for just over 5 months (November - April).
He gets free a free ski pass as well as food and accommodation while he's out there.
I'm not sure what the company's called though, last season he worked with kids, this season he's in the kitchen!
That's definitely an option as you get paid a minimal amount, but you don't really need to spend any money!

My sister and her fiance are in Morzine doing a season this year, she's done a few before and she's set up her own business there doing chalet catering and child care, she has qualifications for all that jazz, and her bloke has got a job driving a minibus to an from the airport for a tour company.
They have a flat in London but have rented it out for 4 months, an both taken sabbaticals from their gay city jobs!
Just make sure you have a job an accomadation there before you go, having been there before you know that sh!ts expensive!
