JC and I went to Prague in August for a quick summer weekend getaway. We decided to do a city escape rather than a seaside trip, as we had just gone on a beach vacation in July to Croatia. It wasn’t too hot (it even rained one day), around 24 celsius during the day and […]

Schnitzel, bier, lederhosen, Oktoberfest……these are all things that come to mind when discussing good ole’ Germany. But my new home country of Deutschland has more to offer than just beer and pretzels. Especially when it comes to Christmas (Weihnachten). The German Christmas Markets (Weihnachtsmärkte) are a wonder to behold. And this December, JC and I […]
