Christmas the European way

Mr. H and I make it a priority to travel out of the country at least once a year. I understand that not everyone can afford this "luxury" but we do make sacrifices to be able to do this because I think it's so important to see the rest of the world.   This year we decided to see how the Europeans celebrate Christmas! We leave this weekend.  Here are the places we'll be visiting:

Bruges, Belgium

I can't wait to visit all the Christmas markets, drink the mulled wine and eat the yummy Christmas treats! If anyone has any suggestions on places to visit and things to do in any of these cities, please share them with me!

  1. This will be a very memorable and fun trip Khammany! We make it a point to travel too at least once a year, I think the kids would be more well-rounded being exposed to different cultures!

  7. Everyone would like to be at your place I think! How exciting to visit all these wonderful cities in the middle of winter, in Christams time! We were in Zurich two years ago and in London last year.It was also magical!
    Have fun and take care!

  8. Way to go dear!!! It will be a fabulous time - you are visiting so many of the best cities with the most beautiful Christmas markets. I was in Prague in October - loved every minute and can imagine how exquisite it will be at Christmastime. Just walking across the Charles Bridge, visiting the castle, listening to the fascinating clock strike the hour, listening to wonderful music etc. will all be awesome - and with perhaps a little snow the atmosphere will be perfect.

    Bon voyage - enjoy. Merry Christmas.
