Joyeux Noel and Bonne année!

Currently I am sending you wishes for a gorgeous Chrissy from my home in the Aussie bush surrounded by the sounds of kookaburras in summer, with kangaroos joining us for our morning coffee and returning for apéro in the late arvo! A far cry from last year when I was in France on my wonderful Noël roadtrip through the French alps and the Alsace region. 

I have a number of tips for travelling in the type of weather that can be expected in France in December as it is winter! This is the time of mulled wine, big coats, warm open fires and rugging up with fabulously filling French comfort food! 

Tune in to hear Loulabelle's top 5 tips for travelling during the Christmassy period in mountainous France. Really practical advice about what to pack or leave behind. I'll also take you through a number of divine villages I either stayed in or visited briefly in the Beaujolais and Alsace regions in the lead up to  Noël as well as the excitement of Christmas in Paris!
