  1. Merry Christmas from Moscow! ๐Ÿ’ซ I like Cologne, but it's better to go to some small old German towns on Christmas. it's just my opinion

  2. I agree that we should dress warm when going to a winter market. But I'd say it should be multiple layers rather than, say, a thick or turtleneck sweater. Because with all that walking around, it's gonna get hot soon, and we're gonna want to take off some pieces later.
