Christmas Is All Around

Hello lovely people,

Can you believe that we have made it to December? Every year we always say that the end of the year has come by too quickly, but once we think about what we have done during the year it feels like light-years ago. In case you did not follow us this time last year, we love Christmas. For us, Christmas is like a month-long celebration for our friends and family, to celebrate making it through another year and spending time together. As sentimental people, we definitely love getting into the Christmas spirit.

Yesterday on December first (or as we like to call it, Christmas the First), we put our Christmas tree and decorations up, as is the tradition. My oh my, are we IN LOVE with our tree this year. We decided to choose a better colour scheme than we had last year, and build on what we had to have a silver, gold and pink theme. Are you sensing a theme here? 


As Christmas is in Summer for us Australians, the traditional wintery colours of Christmas did not feel right in our little apartment that always seems to have a golden glow about it on sunny days. 


Basically all of our baubles are from Big W, which are super cheap, or we have taken from our family home tree (there are enough decorations on that for all of us!)



Yesterday we also started VLOGMAS. 
For those of you who don't know, Vlogmas is a thing done by people on YouTube, where you vlog (video blog?) everyday leading up to Christmas, starting December 1st. 
A vlog is when you bring your camera along with you and film your day. We're not sure why we love vlogs so much... maybe because it feels like you're with your friends, and who doesn't love to keep up to date with what their friends are doing?

While we aren't YouTubers, a lot of YouTubers did start out a bloggers. This doesn't mean that we want to become YouTubers (maybe one day?), we just really love vlogmas and have always wanted to try it. Since this blog is about our live as students in the city, vlogmas seemed pretty fitting.

Vlogmas is the greatest, though, because everyone is in the Christmas spirit, and you get to experience/see what Christmas is like all around the world. So it's pretty special.

We hope you enjoy our Vlogmas. Day 1 is down below!

But most importantly: What do you like most about Christmas?
