… to give you a quick recap of the last week, to let you know I made it back home safely and to wish you a great start into the New Year!! Sorry for not being in touch since Christmas. I was just so busy with enjoying myself and the time with my family that…
Enjoy the special time with your loved ones!
Christmas Market in Köln [Cologne] Friday, my sister and I went to Köln to do some last-minute Christmas shopping, but mainly to enjoy the Christmas time by visiting the Kölner Weihnachtsmarkt [Cologne Christmas Market] and having some Glühwein [mulled wine].
