Mountains we won't ski next year

[moe ghoul]

Boring ass day today had me mindlessly googling ski__ ( country name)__ and coming across some interesting places many here will never visit, (nor want to in some cases). I ran across this one from Iran, scroll to the bottom and there are a few resort videos which are a bit dated but amusing to watch.

bulgaria is recently become democratic i think. my friend in the army says the girls are beautiful and love to bang americans. he also told me theres some legit mountains. only thing is the age of consent is like 13, so things get a little sketchy.

 

edit: and no drinking age or something.

It's great to surf around and find all kinds of pics and blogs detailing some obscure places around the world that people ski/board. I even found a piece about development ideas for N. Korea, Hyundai has some involvement with that.
