Over the past several years, we have accumulated quite the collection of festive Christmas and holiday articles here on Travel Belles. Due to their popularity, we thought that this year it would be a good idea to bring them to you all in one place!
Additionally, I created the above video from my travels last December with Eurail Group. The journey by train included stops in Austria, Hungary, and Slovakia, where I was able to experience the unique flavor of each city’s Christmas market. (And I had the chance to meet fabulous Travel Belle and new mom, Zizi Adventures while I was in Budapest.)
Enjoy these articles! And hope you have the most marvelous of holiday seasons!
