Our editor, James Cove, is tucked away in isolation on the Greek Island of Tinos where he is writing copious amounts of copy, editing videos, loading adverts, preparing content, sorting ski trips and much else besides for the coming winter ski season for PlanetSKI.
“I usually go to a similar place at this time of year, somewhere that is away from all distractions and once the summer crowds have gone, to get my head down in relative isolation and find time to prepare for the winter,” said James.
“For the last couple of years, it has been Portugal, but this time it is Tinos in the Aegean.”

“But how I could turn down a request from Iain Martin of ‘The Ski Podcast’ to record a special edition of his highly respected programme?”
“It was a fascinating hour as he asked me about my career in BBC News, my involvement with the Ski Club of Great Britain, my time as a ski instructor in Verbier and then my move into ski writing & becoming a digital publisher as I set up and grew PlanetSKI.
“He quizzed me, on topical debates from climate change through the growth of multi-resort lift passes and much else besides.”

“Iain tells me the podcast will be posted later in the autumn.”
“Cheers, Iain.”
