So, Christmas is nearly here and I can honestly say it feels like yesterday that it was summer. We have lots of lovely Christmas things planned in the coming few days. I shall post a few more times before the 25th but after that it will be the odd photo post until the week after Christmas. So I wish you all a Glædelig Jul!

How to keep little fingers busy on the run up to the big day.

Great write up of one of our favourite museums in Berlin.

I am absolutely positive this is how many expats feel this time of year.

Food for thought this time of year.

A recipe to try after all the Christmas food, I think.

I really wish I had the patience for these.
