If you’re looking to get away for the winter, the United States has some of the best ski resorts in the world. One way to experience these resorts is by staying in a timeshare rental, many of which are situated slope-side, or just minutes from the mountains. Timeshare units are often much more spacious than the standard hotel room, and typically provide separate living and dining rooms so you can spread out during your stay.


I’m addicted to European Christmas markets! In Germany and Austria, they’re called Weihnachtsmarkts and Christkindlmarkts depending on where you are. Each market has distinct aspects and settings that highlight its individuality, but there are many similarities — festive lights, hand-made arts and crafts, food, drink, and entertainment. I love sipping Glühwein and eating bratwurst sandwiches while browsing the arts and crafts stalls and talking to the artisans amid old European settings.


Mr. TWS and I are very excited about our German/Austrian trip to kickoff the holiday season. Jetlagged as we were after arriving in Munich the other day, we ventured out into the heart of Old Town to soak up the Christmas spirit with great food and drink in a beautiful European setting as a light snow fell.
