My dream in life is to own a really great cookie jar

The North Pole of France

*Way* back when the Christmas spirit was in full swing I discovered a city more magical than Saint Nick himself: Strasbourg. Noel capital of the world.
I, along with six other girls, ventured out to the city by train one weekend to experience Europe's largest Christmas markets- and boy was it incredible.


We actually decided to live life on the edge and couchsurf our way through the trip, which made me a little nervous at first, but it ended up being a really great way to meet people (and practice a little french). In fact, one of the girls hosting us happened to be a lovely American working through the Teach English Abroad program. Not only did she show us around Strasbourg, but she also helped us navigate the train ride into Offenberg, Germany!

The following are a large amount of photos of my trip to Strasbourg and the mini surprise adventure into Germany:
