I will be turning 30 next year (!) and am trying to organise a 3-4 week ski trip with my partner some time around February. I cannot for the life of me decide if I want to go to Japan or Canada!

We are from Australia, so Japan is a shorter and cheaper flight, but I’m finding accommodation in Canada is generally cheaper than Japan. Lift tickets are cheaper in Japan of course, but we both have an epic pass which will help a little with lift tickets in either destination. We are both advanced and have been to Japan a few times. This year was some of the most incredible powder skiing I have ever done! I did a season in Canada (Fernie) when I was younger but haven’t been back in many years, and SO has never been.

We love powder, we hate lift lines, we love a good apres bar, we know nobody wants any more Australians but here we are.

Please give me any and all opinions you have to help me choose!
