  • IT’S CHRISTMASSSSSSSSSSS. Happy 1st December guys, to kick off the festivities we are taking you to Bruges in Belgium to experience our very FIRST European Christmas market with you. Are they over-rated? Or are they really as magical as people say. We decided the best way to score these markets would be to set ourselves a CHALLENGE. Everyone loves a challenge right.

    We are Chris & Sam also known as The Travel Duo for our love of travel & adventure. In January 2021 we left our home & jobs in Plymouth to fulfil our dream of living life on the road with our gorgeous spaniel Fletcher. We will be travelling the world in our home on wheels who we named ‘Olive’, whilst we work remotely & follow our passions of filmmaking on the road.
    We have always had a love of sharing our experiences online & inspiring others to explore the world & chase your dreams. We are new to TH-cam as living on the road has given us the time to produce our travel films & share them with you. So if you are new around here, hit that subscribe button for new videos every week.

    What a lovely video gives all a nice Christmas feeling think you could have made from money selling the hats keep safe and warm

      Thank you Dad 😍 Fletcher is forever stealing the show, maybe we should rename it the Fletcher channel, most travelled dog we know 🐾 x

    Loved this! As the weather gets warmer here we're missing the cosy Christmas vibes! Bruges is one of our favourite cities, we were a little too early to see the Christmas market so was lovely to see it through your eyes. Not sure of your route but Cologne Christmas market in Germany was insane. There's multiple markets in the same city, all have slightly different vibes. And when we went there was a park up right on the river (It was in 2019 so not sure if it's still there). Looking forward to the next one guys. And I have to agree with Sam, the highlight was definitely those hats 🎅❤

      Hey guys! Thank you for tuning in 😍✨️ glad you enjoyed it. Cologne is definitely on the list, hoping to get there in the next few days 🎅🎄 you have made us even more excited for it. Little jealous of your warmer climate though as its dropped to -1 here today 🙈

      Thank you! You'll love Bruges 😍 we parked up absolutely fine, lots of street parking around & just a short walk into town. Our van is around 6.8 metres long 🙂

    Just came back today from Bruges market today, and to perfectly honest i didn’t think it was all that, not much there only a few mobile stands selling food, have been to better markets in France. Overhaul the shops around the market are fantastic especially the Chocolate shops and the beautiful buildings as you walk around, the people are super friendly and if you love Beer your in for a treat , according to a barmen in a nearby pub every beer has its own glass, Amazing but don’t believe the hype about the Market ❤

      Hey Darren. We hope you had a great time in Bruges, it's a beautiful city isn't it 😃 this was our very first European Christmas market on our tour around Europe & we loved it 😍 but after travelling around all different markets we realised it was much smaller than most. We would definitely return though as Bruges is a gorgeous place to explore 😃

    You should have done the light-show walk around bruges, it ends at the 'minnewaterpark' where there is an ice skating ring and a bar with drinks and food (vegan food as well)

    • @thetravelduo_

      Omg I can't believe we missed apart of the market 🙈 shows we were a little rusty with it being our first one, will teach us to do more research before we go to places 🥰 thank you so much for the info

      Hey! 🙂 Thanks for tuning in. Your going to have a great time in Brugge. It's quite a small city so there is only one Christmas market, its all spread out around the main town, your going to love it. Enjoy ✨️
