Wenn Janett fragt, ob ich wieder beim #reisebloggeradvent mitmache, kann ich kaum nein sagen. Erstens liebe ich Weihnachten und zweitens hat es mir in den vergangenen Jahren schon sehr viel Spaß gemacht, euch nach Rostock, Dresden und Braunschweig mitzunehmen. In diesem Jahr geht es nur kurz vor die Haustür: Ich zeige euch mein Weihnachten in Bremen.
Oh, I love Christmas. Not necessarily because of the presents I get but for the atmosphere. Here is a short overview of what makes Christmas in Germany special for me: Christmas markets In Bremen we have two big christmas markets: the historic one at the market square and one at the river Weser which is more like a medieval market. Both have a really beautiful setting, cute little booths where you can buy presents and of course food stalls with various treats and snacks. I love to get myself a piece of fresh bread with a layer of lard which is the perfect base to have delicious mulled wine. And for some sweets I love the warm Baumkuchen (cylindrical cake built up of horizontal layers) with warm cherries. Yummy! So when in Germany, make sure to visit a Christmas market. Every city has one. If you don’t make it to the Bremen christmas market you might want to have a look at Braunschweig, Leipzig or Dresden. That are the ones I know and I love. …
