You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover but it might be fair to judge a place by its seasons.
By popular demand, here is finally a post on Luxembourg, a tiny, often overlooked country that I have called “home” for the past three years.
What I love most about the Grand Duchy is the seasons.
Each one leaves our surroundings completely transformed and brings with it a whole new lifestyle and set of traditions to look forward to: mushroom picking, Christmas markets, asparagus season, Fiederwäissen festivals…
There is a distinct Lebensrhythmus (rhythm of life) here driven by nature, and it is easy to feel like you are a part of it all.

January 29, 2016 at 7:13 pmThanks Natty for sharing these wonderful photographs. I’m curious what the Luxembourgians’ would find to protest about; surrounded as they are by such year round beauty. The towns, and vineyards look so clean and inviting; like places God would create if he had the money. I love the photo of the mean old dog who looks like he might have chewed a hole in the barn door. His fur color perfectly matches the paint. Perhaps he was the inspiration for their color scheme.
