Rachel Xoxo asked:

I’ve always wanted to learn to ski, so i was thinking about maybe having my sweet 16 at a ski resort. I live in Virginia, but I can travel pretty much anywhere on the east coast. Is there any cool ones on the east coast or should I think of something else?? I don’t want some boring resort either; I want to go somewhere, where me and my friends will have fun.
