Missing the slopes...

22 Feb 2026

A little winter getaway to Muntele Mic, although this time things were quite different for me.

After my knee surgery, I still didn't feel confident enough to get back on skis. I thought about giving it a try, but in the end, I just couldn't bring myself to do it. It was a little sad being there, watching everyone else ski and knowing how much I missed it.

Instead, I went for a short walk along the slopes, enjoying the fresh mountain air and taking a few photographs of the beautiful winter scenery, with the Țarcu Mountains rising in the distance.

Not exactly the mountain adventure I would have wished for, but at least I got to spend some time in the mountains again. Hopefully, next time I'll feel ready to put my skis back on!
