Recommended: Essay about winter activities

Brain, just like body’s muscles needs rest and relaxation. I find this relaxation in sports, particularly in snowboarding. Even one successful and enjoyable trip per season gives me a strong charge of positive emotions which helps stay focused on my goals until I get another break. The feeling of standing on the peak of a mountain somewhere in the Alps, inhaling fresh, cool air and feeling the adrenalin before dropping into the fresh deep powder snow, is why winter is my favorite season. I’m fond of snow, winter is my favorite season, snowboarding would be the activity if my choice.
