How to experience a white christmas by Rachael

"A white Christmas makes the whole event much more cosy."

How I did it: I had my first Christmas in Sweden, my new home. It was very unlikely I'd ever have a white Christmas in Bristol, England, my hometown. It felt very nice, but having a Christmas away from your family, with different traditions and ways, it's never the same. If I could have a white Christmas every year, or a Christmas with my family, I know which I'd chose :)

Lessons & tips: If you're lucky enough to live in a country which often gets snow for the winter holiday, just wait :)
If you're not, maybe go abroad for your Christmas. Before moving here I'd always planned on one day celebrating Christmas in a log cabin in Alaska.

Me too..

I was also 23 this Christmas (now I’m 24!) and it was also my first Christmas without my family! But unlikely yours it was my first Christmas without any snow… even my fist winter without snow! :)
I wish you all the best!
