I do everything you wrote on this list and I absolutely love this time of the year - I get to feel like a kid (more than I usually do during the rest of the year anyways, haha). I get really excited about lights and decorations, the festive spirit in the streets, Christmas markets, all the season's special sweets and desserts, mulled wine, pumpkin spiced lattes....
Ah, the list goes on!...
I have spent the last 4 Christmas holidays in Asia, and though colorful, the vibe was kinda wrong for me! Growing up in Europe, I have connected the festive season with cold and snow and winter landscapes.
I'm back in Europe for these holidays and I'm already driving my family and friends nuts with my over-excitement!
P.s. I can think of few things more relaxing than sitting by a window while it's snowing outside (preferably in front of a fireplace), wine or a hot chocolate in my hands and a good book for company...
Yes, this time of the year is perfect for channeling our inner kid, hehe!
I would totally feel the same, winter Holidays must have a totally different vibe without snow and cold weather. I'm glad you will get to experience it this season, I'm sure you'll really enjoy it! :)
I see that we have the same idea of how this time should be spent. :D Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, I love reading comments like this! Cheers (with some red wine)
Great list!
Further, we can get ourselves outside anyways. I'm inclined to believe that there is no bad weather, just inappropriate clothing choices. Let's bundle up and get some fresh air... and then notice how our mood improves! For my part, I'm going to do all of the above.
there is no bad weather, just inappropriate clothing choices.
Oh my God, this is an amazing attitude! Love it! :D
I love spending time outside when there is fresh snow or walking the city center streets when all is decorated and shiny! :)
Thank you for your comment, I like your way of thinking!
I enjoy all the seasons but I hear many people grumbling about it starting to get cold and the possibility of snow in the forecast. Thank you for the reminders of some of the positive things about winter. I also think it is a beautiful time of the year, just like spring, summer and fall. They each have their beauty. Blessings on your holiday season.
That is how I feel about the winter and during the winter.
I like your tips on how to stay positive and still have fun during this time of year. I find myself doing way more baking and cooking and spending more time on getting to know myself and lots of productive reading etc.
Thank you so much!
I'm trying to keep a positive attitude and get some inspiration to fill my time with fun and productive activities.
I like the 'getting to know myself' part, I think it's very important. :)
I love that! I'm not a winter person either but you're totally right with your list! :) It's getting cold here now and I'm just trying to enjoy it, like staying at home and all that :)
Great post, @nikolina!
