What to see in Colmar in 24h, displayed in 8 photos.

1. First things first. If you are travelling by car you will park at the parking Montagne Verte. It's next to the old town and the prettiest Christmas market!
2. If you love chocolate, you can't miss the Museum of Chocolate!
3. Standing in line for a bit is OK if you are about to try one of the best croissants ever at "Au Dore".
4. You shouldn't miss the Maison Pfister if you are strolling around the old town. Simply a masterpiece!
5. If you want to bring back home something special from Colmar, visit the shop "La belle-iloise". You won't believe the combinations with canned fish, varieties of fish spreads & some amazing lobster soup. Great gift idea, too!
6. For the lovers of museums, you can't miss the Bartholdi museum.
7. La petite Venise is simply magical, especially during the period of Christmas holidays.
8. And since we are in France at the Alsace region, cheese and wine are a MUST. There are plenty of small shops with amazing assortment of cheese and divine wine! Our favourite shop was Malker.

Last but not least, we stayed in Biesheim at Hostellerie Groff Aux Deux Clefs (15min away from Colmar by car). Cozy family-run hotel with a great restaurant too! We totally loved our stay there.

À bientôt.

The light of the second biggest moon of the year above the Swiss alps. No filter. I kind of miss that night.

Πολλές μαμάδες νιώθουμε συχνά τύψεις, ότι είναι πολλά που δεν κάνουμε καλά και θα μπορούσαμε να τα κάνουμε καλύτερα.
Χθες και ενώ γράφαμε το πρώτο του γράμμα, λίγο πριν το τελειώσουμε μου είπε πως θα ήθελε να δώσει και αυτός ένα δώρο στον Άγιο Βασίλη. Τότε λοιπόν σκέφτηκα πως σίγουρα έχω κάνει κάτι σωστό για να σκέφτεται ετσι.

Κορίτσια χαλαρώστε, give yourself a break που λενε και οι Αγγλοι, καντε ενα ομορφο δωρο στον εαυτο σας (οχι μονο στους αλλους), πιείτε λίγο κόκκινο κρασί, φάτε μπόλικα μελομακάρονα και κουραμπιεδακια χωρίς τύψεις. Το αυτομαστιγωμα και η δίαιτα από Γενάρη πάλι! 💫🎅🍫🌟⛄️🎄🎉🎁

You will need:
800gr cheese moitié moitié
300ml white wine
20gr corn starch
1 garlic (chopped)
A bit of nutmeg & a bit of pepper
1 baguette
2 pears 🍐

How to make it:
Chop the garlic and then disolve the corn starch with the wine.
In the caquelon, add the garlic, the cheese and the corn starch with the wine. In medium heat, steer well till the cheese has completely melted 🫠 and is ready to be served!

Tip: After cutting the baguette in pieces, I bake it for 10min at 150° to have it more crunchy!
