Do you know Vitra? It is a Swiss company manufacturing design furniture. A real reference for design lovers! Good news, Vitra is located in Weil-am-Rhein, Germany, right on the border with France and Switzerland. It is thus very easy during a stay in Alsace to go there.

As you know, I like spas in Alsace! And that’s good, we have a great wellness offer in Alsace: there are spas of various styles and for all budgets.

Quatzenheim is a small village located at 15 minutes from Strasbourg, where I moved a few months ago (I already told you about it, since I offer bed and breakfast in my house). A Christmas market, called Les Fermes de Noël, is organized there every year during one evening. The concept is original: the stands […]
