Winter is in full swing, and so is Europe’s ski season. Alpine resorts have opened, and skiers across the continent are hitting the slopes over the holiday break - if they can afford it. Lift pass prices continue to rise, making ski holidays unaffordable for many. But not everywhere.

We’re talking about Saint-Colomban-des-Villards, a small village in Savoie, located at 1,100 metres above sea level.
