🚨 Time for our Annual "Board Meeting" at Nozawa Onsen! 🚨

Remember when we used to announce our end-of-season trip as the Annual Board Meeting? 😜 Back in the day, we'd dress up in suits and head straight to the slopes—nothing says "business" like skiing down a mountain in a suit, right?

🎿 Trip Highlights:

- Skiing & snowboarding in one of Japan's best resorts
- Soaking in the legendary onsen after the slopes

Check out the photos from past trips and get ready to slay the slopes—this time in regular ski gear. 😂🎿

📷 Picture of the Week: Powder Days & Sumo Showdowns! 🎌

Last weekend (Feb 8-9) gave us some of the deepest powder days of the season in Myoko Kogen & Lotte Arai! The snowfall was relentless, making for dream-like conditions—but at some points, it was almost too much! Can there really be such a thing as too much snow? 🤔❄️

To switch things up, we also immersed ourselves in Japan’s rich culture at the Grand Sumo Tournament. Seeing these legendary wrestlers compete up close was a truly unforgettable experience. The intensity, the energy, and the deep-rooted traditions made it just as thrilling as the slopes!

From floating through bottomless powder to watching sumo warriors clash—Japan delivers it all. Which would you choose first? Let us know in the comments!
