  • My first winter holiday found me a place to be when Christmas lacks in white

     Zwiesel is a charming village in Germany. Where you certainly will have plenty of snow when Christmas lacks in white.

    In a few hours, you manage to do the sightseeing. Which consists of the glass factory where you can purchase something decorative. Next to it locates the 8.09 m pyramid with 68 rows of crystal glasses, the highlight of the attractions. The Sculpture Path takes you to surreal works of art step by step.

    You will also be surrounded by excellent gastronomy for reasonable costs. You can also visit nearby villages for great food like the “El Greco” in Regen.

    A few minutes from the charming centre of Zwiesel hides a cosy skiing and snowboarding area, which thankfully is not hectic as any other popular winter sports destination.   SONY DSC

    For starters, you are looking to find the lady with the red bandana. This was an excellent opportunity to take on snowboarding lessons. Unfortunately, we were so intSONY DSCo practising and having a good time that we forgot to take pictures to show our best performances. (photoSONY DSCs from the second day)SONY DSCHowever, the following winter holiday is booked already, so we will register it. Zwiesel is highly recommended to ski and snowboarding lovers, but if you are social network crazy, expect to have trouble connecting to your favourite platform to share your adventure.

    Check out the links I shared to learn more about this fantastic destination.

    P.S: Just as I am late with this post, I am with wishing you the happiest year of your life.    

    Happy 2015 dear followers.

  • Autumn falls

    Autumn has arrived and the surroundings have transformed into stunning orange-pink tones from once being abundant with greenery. Despite climate change, mid-month temperatures hover around 20 to 23 degrees Celsius, creating an ideal environment for outdoor activities. Recently, I attended a Brazilian consulate event and then proceeded to a social gathering at “Samba de Quintal,” where I savoured the enchanting voice of Heloise Baylão and mastered the art of crafting the delectable Brazilian dish, “Escondidinho.”

    “Escondidinho”, well how to transplante it to English, means something hidden. The dish has as base mashed potato, mincemeat and various toppings on choice but all done in the Brazilian way. The recipe was carefully explained by Cristina owner of the delightful cuisine Bom Sabor do Brasil .
