Armenia in $580s-$590s RT

Welcome to this week's edition of "Why the heck would I go there?" 

For starters, at this price you'd be a fool not to. We can't remember when we saw prices hit this low. 

But the real steal is how gloriously far your ski budget can stretch in a place like this. The closest slopes, Tsaghkadzor are reachable in under 2 hours from Yerevan, and the cost for a one-day lift pass? Wait for it…

About $22. 

Yup, you've got 18 miles of slopes to choose from, spread across beginner to casual-stuntman, and the average cost of accommodation here sets you back about $65 a night. 

The only thing left to do? Shoop, shoop, shoop!
