GIRLS ON THE PISTE PODCAST

Welcome to Girls On The Piste, your weekly ski fix with Emma Woodward and Bella Syme. Along with a special guest each week, the girls discuss everything in the ski world - from the latest ski news and rumours, to new hotels or chalets they love, to après-ski, food, fashion and fitness with guests including professional skiers, ski journalists, explorers, partners in the travel industry and more. Bella lived in Verbier for over a decade coaching freeride and is off-piste obsessed. She founded ALS Ski in 2013 - a travel and concierge company organising incredible ski experiences and events.
