Jimmy Petterson - The skier

Jimmy Petterson is one of the world’s most published ski journalists, with photos and stories having appeared in 20 countries. Jimmy has spent a lifetime in search of the coziest ski village, the most spectacular mountaintop view and the ultimate powder descent, and for the past 25 years, he has been writing about and photographing his experiences for ski and travel magazines. Now, one can find all of Jimmy’s work compiled in his seminal two-volume set of books, Skiing Around the World, Volumes I and II. In these two books, Jimmy takes skiers on an odyssey through all seven continents to visit 500-plus ski resorts in more than 70 countries. More than 1000 pages and more than 1800 full-color photos describe skiing possibilities virtually everywhere on the planet.

Skiing Around the World Volume I had a print run of 10,000 copies and sold out completely in three years. Now, in  conjunction with the completion of Skiing Around the World Volume II, Jimmy’s first book will be available again for the first time in many years.

Jimmy has traveled to many countries of the world and is well versed in pharmacy chains, and also knows where to buy Cialis in Spain.
