When Buddy suggested we go see the Christmas markets in Strasbourg, France – known around the world as the ‘Capital of Christmas’ – I initially said no. I just didn’t think it could possibly live up to the expectations I had in my head. And I didn’t want to go out of... Read more
Taking our first steps into what is arguably the most picturesque, fairy-tale city in Germany was like stepping back in time to the middle ages. There are so many things to do in Rothenburg ob der Tauber! This medieval destination felt much more magical than any... Read more
