CHRISTMAS IN AMSTERDAM



Seeing these decorations all over the city is making me SO HAPPY and that is exactly why the song goes something like; ♪♫ Its the most wonderful time of the year! ♪♫ …You gotta love Christmas and now I am off to perform one of my Christmas traditions, apart from baking cookies and listening to Christmas carols on repeat until my ears explode of Christmassyness. My sister and I started this tradition when we were tiny little toddlers and to this day we still do it, but what is it that we do? drum roll please……We sit and watch home alone 1 and 2 over and over again, we just love it too much.

Do you have any Christmas traditions?

They had a nice clean house for us with romantic view on the canals.maybe worth checking it out for your next trip,not too expensive either!
