Ever wondered what you should pack for a winter holiday?
As this posts, Mr Kiwi and I will have snuck away on a winter trip to Bucharest – and Jack Frost will be nipping at our toes. We’ve intentionally planned it so that we won’t be there for the full-on ski season (Prince Charles owns a house in the Transylvanian mountains) but chilled enough to have a load of delicious plans that will keep our cheeks rosy and slake that wanderlust.
Disclaimer: We were guests of the Post Office for a #SkiSafe event on the same day that London was besieged by #StormEmma. Coincidence?
I’ve never skiied, sledged or willingly walked out onto icy pavements, thanks to falling over and injuring myself too many times, but I do so adore a cheeky winter break – even though in my case it will be more apres than ski every time. We still love to get away over the chillier months though, so here are a few things that I’ve learned over the years, that are absolute essentials for a fun winter break.
