Bollywood actor Aamir Khan who is globetrotting with his two children, got a chance to take skiing lessons in Canada, something that he thoroughly enjoyed and is recommending to everyone.

"Those of you who have the resources and ability to try out skiing please do so, it is absolutely one of the best things I have done in a long time, " Aamir wrote on his blog www.aamirkhan.com.

According to the actor, it was his kids, son Junaid and daughter Ira who forced him to try the sport.

"Thanks to my persistent kids I ended up committing to a week of skiing, and I am glad I did. We were in Banff, a popular ski resort in Canada, a very warm and friendly place and great for skiing. Lovely slopes, very good facilities and great instructors. My kids have been there twice before, first time for me, " he added.

Aamir who will be next seen in Rajkumar Hirani's "Three Idiots" had been working non-stop for the last two years and hence has taken a sabbatical for two months to holiday with his kids.
