Five different Christmas Markets to explore, traditional foods, tips and tricks for visiting, and where to stay to make your stay special this will be your ultimate guide to the Luxembourg Christmas Market.

Dating back to the Roman times, with German, French, Prussian, and Jewish influence - it is no wonder Strasbourg is a UNESCO site. Come with me as we explore a 10th-century Cathedral, hear an Organ Mozart once played on, and explore the Alsace Musem where I learned about Storks and babies in cabbage fields and Rose bushes. Trust me, this one is quite entertaining - watch it here: https://youtu.be/0_D9HcJy560

Food markets are so fun to be able to try different spices, local flavors and see how they connect with each other (at least for a brief moment) - Have you been to a food market in another country? In your own town? Which one was your favorite?

12/15/2024

Come explore the Strasbourg Christmas Market with me! This market has been growing for the last 400 years, has 300 stalls, and the 6th tallest cathedral in the world inside a UNESCO site that has been here since the 12th century BC!

DISCOVER VIANDEN CASTLE IN LUXEMBOURG! https://culturetrekking.com/vianden-castle-in-luxembourg Ties to the Roman roadways, Victor Hugo, the confessor to the Queen of Bohemia, the house of Nassau-Orange, and a beautifully rebuilt Gothic-Romanesque castle that allows your imagination to really run wild imaging what it must have felt like to live here during that time. I think Vianden Castle is well worth the visit, but there are a few tricks to getting there & other things I recommend visiting while in the area. I'll guide you through how to visit Vianden Castle step by step so even the most directionally challenged (like me, and also riddled with travel nerves) can get there without a hitch.

Visit Vianden Castle, a beautifully rebuilt Gothic-Romanesque castle in Luxembourg countryside, with a complex history, that is well worth the visit.

Helsinki Christmas Market was a classic! So many wooden mugs, gnomes, and the first time I got frost bite on my thighs from wearing the WRONG THING. See how the Finnish do Christmas!

https://youtu.be/ahjRDBL6Z6U

The Helsinki Christmas Market wasn't on my radar when I was taking a trip through Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia -- bottom line, it should have been. This Ch...

Estonia was one of those dream trips for me, where I was eating in a Medieval Tavern eating recipes that were concocted from the 15th century cookbook by candlelight with friends. To top it off I was there for my Birthday and couldn't have been more excited to be there, exploring Christmas Markets and UNESCO sites throughout Lithuania & Latvia.
This month and next month I'm going to share those videos, new Christmas market videos, and any tips/tricks for saving money this season, along with any deals that brands send through my inbox & sift through them for you so you don't have to waste that time. HERE IS TO ANOTHER YEAR OF ADVENTURES CULTURE TREKKERS! Hope you are all doing well! Let me know in the comments below.

Getting from Riga to Tallinn is a lot easier and cheaper than you would imagine. It is about a 10-min drive from the middle of the old town, they have movies...

New Video up! This one was SO MUCH FUN!

https://youtu.be/PDX-HEKDibA?si=dtdBYoVEpewpvmF6

Learned about the local remedies for hangovers, wrinkles, stomach aches and even how to enhance the “boongah-boongah jiggy-jiggy” - along with how they grow spices, a jungle song and dance, and a coconut man show, lol. Ya don’t wanna miss this one!

With the destination of Tanzania being known for its Safaris, the Scuba Diving Safari often gets overlooked. This is a GREAT THING for us divers though, to be able to see such rich diversity of coral, healthy eco & microecosystems at play. I went Scuba Diving with the African and Oriental Travel Company in Nungwi Zanzibar and had the time of my life. While there were a few wobbles along the way, visiting Zanzibar taught me a lot about myself and the world. There are some very important things you need to know before visiting, and this video is a bit special - in that I get pretty vulnerable with some of my mental health struggles. Get ready for some of the most incredible scenery and heartfelt conversations you've ever had.

I didn’t realize just how beautiful Zanzibar truly was with the crystal clear blue waters and the warm and friendly people. There are so many things to do in Nungwi Zanzibar like Snorkeling, Scuba Diving, Sky Diving, Seafood, and beautiful smiles quietly suggesting you ‘Pole Pole’ - just take it easy. This is what will greet you in Nungwi, but there are a few logistical, social, cultural and safety issues I want to mention before you visit.

Scuba Diving, Sky Diving, and some of the most beautiful beaches and sunsets in the world. Let me give you a few other tips on things to do in Nungwi Zanzibar & safety tips.

From the Subway with the longest art installation to the parks in Stockholm- it didn’t matter where you went it really was so beautiful. One thing that did stand out though was that I did NOT see any trash laying around, or homeless people. While I may have had my tourist glasses on, it was something I didn’t realize til I got back home. What is the cleanest city you have ever visited?

Have you ever heard of the VASA Museum? It’s in Stockholm and houses an 18th Century ship that capsized on its maiden voyage and wasn’t able to be retrieved til centuries later with a diving dome…. The statues, cannons, all of it is in this museum and is a masterclass for patrons on the absolute skill it took to build it, but also the tomfoolery stupidity it took to sink it. It’s both educational and entertaining and worth a visit to Museum Island because it also has 70 other museums on the island which is owned by the Swedish Crown.

Swedish meatballs, Lingonberries, reindeer meat, hearty meals, fresh deserts are all samples of what you will find of delectable delights in Sweden. More and more I’m seeing many countries trying to resource foods locally & in more sustainably conscious ways. What is your favorite meal you’ve had abroad?

Stone town in Zanzibar is full of history dating back to the 8th Century. Hundreds of cultures make this place a melting pot of flavors, traditions, amongst beautiful beaches & Scuba Diving. I visited Stonetown prior to my Scuba Diving Tour with The African and Oriental Travel Company (stay tuned for that video) - they helped me have an amazing experience here & can’t wait for you to watch 🥰

Fredericksborg Castle and also a National History Museum for Denmark 🇩🇰- it has a moat, expansive throne room, and some of the most ornate ceilings I’ve ever seen (and I’ve been to A LOT of castles) #denmarktravel #travelblogger #thingstoseeindenmark

After 6 years of seeing this photo on my wall that was taken by someone else, I was finally able to visit Spirit Island in Banff and Jasper National Park. It was an emotional journey for me honestly, it felt like instead of just hoping that the battle in the mind would get better one day that this was the universe giving me a gift telling me I was almost over that mountain I’d been working so hard to get over. If you want to see the full journey & other unique things to do in Jasper National Park - watch it here https://youtu.be/nU1oGo-nr9k?si=of01t_3YB1EQXanj #jaspernationalpark #spiritisland #pursuitbanffandjaspercollection

Welcome to the Culture Trekking Community!

Hi my name is Janiel, I have over 23 years of International Travel experience - with a Father that was a Travel Agent, you could say I was born for this. I created the Culture Trekking Community as a way for those who love culture, connection, art, and unique adventure to interact - share ideas - and maybe even travel together. I truly feel we are the sum of everyone that we meet in our lives. We take the best parts of them, and implement them into ourselves. I sincerely want to welcome you to the Culture Trekking Community and hope you lend your voice to help us grow together and create avenues where we can each have amazing adventures.

If you haven’t already, join us on https://instagram.com/culturetrekking) - and get real time instastories, be featured in the C.T.C (culture trekking community) highlight, get your destination inspiration from the visuals I create and curate specifically for you.

Get to know me personally through my YouTube Channel as well (youtube.com/c/culturetrekking) - This is where I conduct many of the interviews with locals from around the world. Where I share the ‘real’ experience and you can deduce all my feelings - both said and unsaid - about the destination or tour.

Just as we each grown in life, I feel that my commitment to creating this community has changed drastically. At first I was caught up in the ‘story of me’, now everything I do is zeroed in on how to give you the BEST information possible. I spend hours researching destinations, tours, locations, and in depth - behind the scenes information that goes beyond the crowds and highly touristic spots. For these detailed guides, visit https://CultureTrekking.com and pick your vacation de jour - I haven’t been everywhere, but it is on my list.
