Zelo lepo in zanimivo napisano.

Italija je res še vsaj malo normalna.

In zelo, zelo gledajo na svoj narod in se držijo tradicionalnih vrednot.

Tudi glede čelad se strinjam.

Edino druga beseda v zadnjem stavku mi pa ni všeč.

Najlepše je bilo smučanje brez kape in v visokih gorah brez žičnic. Zdaj sem pa star in ne smučam več. Žal!

Zakaj ne napišete še koliko stanejo cestnine v Italiji. 250km v eno smer in nazaj pa si ob 50€. Je tudi to normalnost?

in za ta denar se potem zaradi slabega vzdrževanja zruši viadukt Morandi.

pa neprecenljivo, ko 10 mesecev po dopustu dobiš za spomin iz Italije še slikico, ko si sredi noči sledil google maps navodilom in zapeljal v ulico v katero ne bi smel

V Italiji sem bil pogost turist, ko so imeli lire. Ko so prešli na evre, so postali neprebavljivi.
Sicer v bolj zakotnih krajih so cene proti našim spet bolj normalne, predvsem na račun naših višanj. V Benetke pa ni za iti. Verjetno ne bom šel nikoli več.

Zanimivo besedilo, ampak sem razočaran, da se avtorica v dobi UI ne zmore znebiti nevroze v zvezi s čelado. Morda ji bo tole spodaj v pomoč. Pa pomisli naj, zakaj naš as Pogačar na kolesu nosi čelado, za kolena in rame mu je pa malo mar :). Pa zdravstvene zavarovalnice te bodo iz leta v leto imele rajši :).

Why people ski without helmet?

People ski without a helmet for a mix of historical, psychological, practical, and cultural reasons, even though helmets are widely recommended and are now the norm at many ski resorts.

Here are the main reasons:

They learned before helmets became common
Twenty or thirty years ago, very few recreational skiers wore helmets.
Many experienced skiers simply continued the habits they developed when they learned.
They believe they ski safely
Some think, "I ski under control, so I don't need one."
The problem is that many serious ski injuries involve collisions with other skiers or falls caused by unexpected conditions, not loss of control.
Comfort concerns
Some find helmets too warm.
Others dislike the weight or pressure on their head.
Modern helmets have become much lighter and better ventilated, so this is less of an issue than it used to be.
Style or appearance
A small number simply prefer how they look without one.
This reason has become less common as helmets have become standard.
Misunderstanding the risk
Some people underestimate the likelihood of head injury.
Head injuries are relatively uncommon compared with knee injuries, but when they occur they can be life-changing.
False sense of familiarity
Skiers who know a slope well may feel it is "safe."
However, icy patches, hidden obstacles, changing weather, or other skiers can create hazards unexpectedly.
Does a helmet really help?

Yes. Research consistently shows that ski helmets:

reduce the risk of head injury by about 35–60%,
are particularly effective at reducing serious head injuries,
do not appear to increase the risk of neck injuries.

They cannot prevent every concussion or severe injury, especially in very high-speed impacts, but they significantly improve protection.

Who is least likely to wear one?

Helmet use is now very high among:

children,
snowboarders,
younger adults,
racers.

The lowest usage tends to be among:

older recreational skiers who learned decades ago,
some expert skiers who prefer tradition or comfort over protection.

Should you wear one?

For virtually all recreational skiers, yes. A certified ski helmet is one of the most effective pieces of safety equipment you can wear. Combined with properly adjusted bindings, appropriate speed, and awareness of other skiers, it substantially reduces the risk of serious injury with very little downside.

Italija je zelo raznolika dežela. Kot Juga nekoč. Res je, malo stran od turističnih centrov so cene normalne. A tudi pri nas se da to komot najti, pa na Madžarskem, Slovaškem, hrvaški Liki, itd.
Lani sem zavil z AC pri Gospiču dol in šel v gostilno malo pred Gospičem. Cena 16 eur za orenk gospod krožnik za domače specialitete (meso i prilog)... da se uni bigoli z zajčkom, ki jih popapcaš v 3 grižljajih, skrijejo.
Ne pozabite, da v ITA redno zaračunavajo "coperto" za 1,5 eur po glavi. In če greš tam na pojedino dobrega ramsteka s prilogo, si na 20 eur. Pri nas pa podobno na periferiji.

(Slovenske gostilne poznam zelo dobro... in ja, cene zelo nihajo, v mestih in bolj top conah pa je res cena že kar višja, a v Italiji je podobno. S to razliko, da se v Italiji v Rimu, Firencah in večjih mestih lahko hitro nasereš, ker dobiš povprečno kakovostno hrano za visoko ceno. Pri nas takega nategota še nisem doživel v Lj ali Mb ali Kranju, v Italiji pa že, ker so marsikje na top lokacijah prevzeli gostilne migranti in kakovost je kvečjemu povprečna.)
