Tina says…

My favourite thing about Christmas in France…
This is a no-brainer for me: ‘Vin & Chaud & Châtaignes Grillées’ (Hot Wine & Roasted Chestnuts).

What I miss about Christmas in my hometown…
All of the lights and decorations on practically every house on every street. People go all out for Christmas in the USA and it’s truly amazing.

What I think the French do better at Christmas…
The Christmas Eve dinner and desserts.
