I just took a trip to discover the best of Edinburgh, and this is a list of the top discoveries I made ...
A Merry Berlin Christmas
Berlin is a city that doesn’t simply celebrate Christmas; instead, it turns into a wintry paradise where the aroma of roasted chestnuts, the sound of carolers, and the spirit of the season permeate the air.
