Ski.com and Epic Pass have teamed up in search of one lucky individual who will get to ski or snowboard their way around the world for two months this winter.

The successful applicant will travel to seven countries: the US, Canada, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, France and Japan, during January and February 2019 via United Airlines.

They will visit premium resorts, including Whistler Blackcomb and Fernie in Canada; Vail, Park City and Breckenridge in the US; Verbier in Switzerland; Courchevel in France and Hakuba Valley in Japan.

They'll be equipped with skiing gear from Helly Hansen, Rossignol and Oakley and armed with equipment from GoPro to capture all of those magical mountain-top moments.

Oh, and they'll pay you $10,000 (£7,770) for your trouble.

The ideal candidate will have "a serious desire to travel to some of the most amazing mountain destinations". They will like to ski or snowboard, but also "know when it’s time for après". They will need to be relaxed mingling with locals on their travels and have an "overall longing for adventure and documenting new experiences," according to the advert.
