basically this summer in my uni holidays i want to get a job in the alps and i want to go to 2 alpes to ski and bike and just have an amazing summer, now i have heard that summer jobs are competitive, so anyway a friend of my parents said he could sort me out with a job in alpe d'huez for the summer which sounds good, so i was basically wondering if i spent the summer there are there public buses which go to deux alpes as it is just over 40 mins away or are there lots of people driving as i wont have a car, or would it be better to try and get in 2 alpes. plus k to any responses not to sure if this was the right place to post this

There is definitely a bus that runs between the two and it takes about an hour so you can easily get a decent amount of time skiing in deux alpes. Depending how much money you've got spare/how badass you're feeling im pretty sure you can get a helicopter over which is a tonne quicker and so much faster. Obviously its better if you dont have to travel over to ski so i would still try for a job in deux alpes.

Just go to Morzine or Chatel and bike all summer; you'll have a much better time than in Deux Alpes and find a job easier.

Haha "just a few". Getting back to alpe d huez would kill you at the end of a days skiing.
