Announcing #EuroWinterEscape: Europe’s Best Winter Destinations
In less than a week, Something in Her Ramblings is hitting the road to share stories about some of Europe’s best winter destinations.
I will be using a four-country Eurail pass to explore Switzerland, Austria and Germany, and celebrate Christmas in Milan.
After living in Florida for three years the temperatures of these mountainous, northern regions are sure to come as a shock, but I’m excited to take in the snowy landscapes and experience travelling in winter.
Take a peak at some highlights from my 18-day Itinerary below and be sure to stop by for new posts. You can also follow the action on Twitter using #EuroWinterEscape.
