Canadian Ski Vacations
About Us
We’re a family business.
Here’s who we are:
Nigel Harrison
A keen skier and ski mountaineer, Nigel has travelled thoughout Europe, Canada and the U.S., as well as New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Iceland, Chile, Greenland, Norway and Morocco. He’s also climbed in the Himalaya and skied Denali in Alaska, as well as crossed the Atlantic a couple of times in small sailboats to go skiing in obscure places. His current project is to ski as many volcanoes as possible, and his favourite ski experience to date is standing on his skis watching magma in the crater of Villarica Volcano in Chile. Nigel has been a ski instructor and coach for many years and has lead backcountry ski and climbing parties in several countries. He lives on Vancouver Island, BC, with his wife and two kids, with whom he enjoys wilderness adventures and mountain biking.
Chelsea Ruben
Chelsea is our Business Development guru; we do what she says (except when she’s not looking). She helps us form new partnerships with third party businesses, and helps guide the behind the scenes processes that are so important in making all our systems function, ensuring you and yours have fantastic, hassle free vacations doing what you love. In her personal life, Chelsea loves to ride her mountain bike, which she has done through out BC and the Yukon, and also loves to ski; she’s skied everywhere from Alaska to California, and from New Zealand to Iceland. She’s also done a ton of ocean sailing, and is a highly competent scuba diver, rock climber and, in her less action packed moments, gardener. Chelsea lives with her husband and two kids in Cumberland, B.C.
Aaron Milan
Born and raised in the Comox Valley, Aaron didn’t need to travel very far to enjoy some of the finest snow in Canada. After more than 30 years skiing and snowboarding at so many of the best resorts Canada has to offer, Aaron’s passion for the sport remains, although his body doesn’t always agree. Although his physical abilities may not be what they used to be, his brain is as sharp as ever, and he uses that brain power to ensure that the website you’re currently using is always up to date and working smoothly. When not immersing himself in website design & development, Aaron can be usually be found exploring the backcountry on two wheels of some sort. He lives in Comox, BC with his wife, his daughter and his cat.
Isabelle Maheux
Isabelle is our most awesome team member (her words) and with her extensive tourism background, she is an excellent fit as our Travel Consultant. She has worked in the tourism industry for nearly 20 years. Her 5 years sailing the high seas on Royal Caribbean Cruise Line and Princess Cruises gave her the opportunity to travel the world and discover many countries. Isabelle also worked as a destination representative in Punta Cana and Dubai. She has spent the last few years showcasing this beautiful country to guests from around the globe as a Tour Director. She now lives on beautiful Vancouver Island with her husband and son where she enjoys skiing, hiking, cycling and spending time outdoors. Isabelle is delighted to be part of this awesome team.
Hanne Sorenson
Her wanderlust has taken her to New Zealand, Australia and South East Asia. Eventually Canada called, and she returned to Squamish where she spends her spare time hiking, snowboarding and exploring beautiful BC. She converted a school bus into a tiny house and has been exploring BC’s backroads from old growth forests to beaches to wineries.
Hanne is experienced with group travel, outdoor adventures, city escapes, cruises and everything in between. You’ll appreciate Hanne’s attention to detail and passion for people – this comes across on every booking
Clare Hodgetts
Clare has travelled extensively, her trips studying birds taking her to the Canadian High Arctic nine times, to Iceland, Hawaii and California, and the southern tip of South America. As well as adventure traveling, hiking, and surfing in Sri Lanka, Nepal, India, and southeast Asia.
Clare worked for Environment Canada studying the effects of pesticides on wildlife for many years, before completing a Photojournalism degree in Victoria, BC. Her interest in photography and the environment led to the creation of InFocus Canada – a small business that raises money for environmental charities through sustainable fashion and beautiful photography. She is very excited to be working with the team at Momentum Journeys and is loving creating and booking your trip of a lifetime to Japan!
Kylee Savage
Kylee is an avid snowboarder with a deep love for the mountains and the outdoors. Raised on Vancouver Island, she developed a strong connection to nature and the adventure it offers. Kylee has explored many of BC’s skiing destinations, such as the West Kootenays, Smithers, Whistler, and Vancouver Island. Calling Cumberland, BC home, you can find Kylee ripping the mountain bike trails of Cumberland or shredding the slopes at Mount Washington with a big smile on her face.
Known for her welcoming personality, Kylee is a joy to work with. With her extensive experience and passion for skiing and snowboarding, she’s dedicated to helping you plan your perfect Switzerland ski vacation, ensuring an unforgettable experience on the slopes.
