Ski Week/ Climb to Chopok at 2025 Meters I was the only exchange student to climb it!

 Super windy on the climb up!

 Amazing with the Clouds rolling in as we climbed.

 Have to take a second look at that view, for sure.

 Holy Cow (Harry Carrey voice) The sign on top is finally in view!

 Speachless.

 Cannot believe we made it.

 Even with the clouds it was neat.

 Time to head down.

 Yes I climbed that. The only exchange student to do so.

 Well lets ski down from the top. I did this a day before climbing Chopok so that's why these are much more clear skies. skiing down this had to be one of the scariest things I have ever done but so glad I did it.

 Looking back at Chopok on the far left of this picture.

 Don't fall off, Don't fall off!

 Wow good thing I stopped before going off the edge.

 Alright! made it to the ski lift.

So here is my favorite, not just favorite from ski week but favorite that I have ever taken! (More accurately Gopro taken) This is me and Michal at the top of Chopok, which is the main peak in the low tetras were we have been skiing. Michal and I were the only ones who wanted to climb this. Chopok is 2024 met...ers high. the ski lift goes up a ways but then you have to climb about 20 minutes to the top. This was right as we reached the top and two handed high fived (caught in the reflection of his goggles) with the Chopok sign in the background, and his huge smile. I honestly never thought I would be on top of a mountain but I ended up there and I absolutely enjoyed who I had the chance to do it with. Thank you Michal, I surely will never forget this experience. With Michal Plichta

 The tallest gothic alter in central Europe around 20m tall, all hand crafted and no nails. Oh and there was a 50 euro fine for taking pictures but host mom asked if I could since I was an exchange student, I was given permission!

 OOHHHH I see a guitar in that wood grain!

 Hand cut and inlayed wood design.

 Another hand inlayed wood design.

 Some really cool iron work on a door.

 I don't think this guy likes his job.

 Entrance to another church but this one was closed for some reason.

 I like this view for some reason

 Chapel on a hill about 5km away from the church, it to was closed.

 Loved this view and couldn't help but think of my mom, the Chaplin, as I was taking the photo.

 Hello From the OTTER SIDE!! Sorry I had to Hello from the other side is huge hit here and I hate it, so here's a little fun with the song title.

So nice to be on the ice.

 Smooth as glass.

Art work I bought in Vienna, they are original watercolors, I think the actual buildings and stuff are prints and then the artist color in with watercolor.
