How many times have you wondered what the secret to a Happy Christmas was? Are you one of those who think that from October onwards there is no need for all the supermarkets to be full of advent calendars? Are you the kind of person who’s been wearing a full festive outfit since the summer? Or are you already sick of Christmas before it even arrives? Whether you love Christmas or miss your bathing suit, we’re here to tell you the truth behind the secret of a “Happy Christmas”.
Christmas food is always better
There is certainly more of it because we are all aware that, at this time of year, the table has to be filled to the brim. This is particularly true for desserts, which are always in abundance. It’s true that if you start eating so many desserts in October, by the time the festive season arrives, you might not feel like eating nougats, wafers, cookies, chocolates and all the desserts that, as we have been saying, you manage to fitĀ on the table.
Christmas with family or friends?
We know that Christmas is all about being with family, seeing the Christmas markets, visiting different places, enjoying a romantic getaway, and so much more.
When it comes to visiting interesting and fun places, some of our personal favourites are:
La Fira de Santa Llucia, which is in Sabadell just like one of our Metrecubic offices. This fair is held from the end of November until 23 December. It has been running for more than 75 years, and about fifty stands gather there every year.
You can find all kinds of Christmas items on a stroll around the stands.Ā From balls, ribbons, nativity figures, fir trees (both natural and artificial), the Catalan favourites “caganers” and “poinsettias”, and so on.
Moving further north, there is a very interesting market close to the border with Girona, where we have another one of our offices.Ā This is the Village de NoĆ«l in Le BarcarĆØs. It is one of the most beautiful and largest Christmas markets in the south of France, and the perfect place to spend a day with your family and children.
You can also go with friends and find the best Christmas gifts.
Christmas decorations and events
No Christmas is complete without Christmas decorations. Is this the secret to a Happy Christmas?
Maybe, but one thing is for sure, Christmas lights and all the decorations around the festive season are amazing. Itās magical to stroll through the streets at nightfall and see the lights shining from above with all the excitement in the air.
Christmas presents filled with love
If you love giving and receiving presents, you’ll definitely be as merry as Christmas itself this time of year. So, whether you are one of those who can’t stop being excited and thrilled by the joy of a loved one, or by opening a present, and that whatever it is you are going to shed a tear, we are sure that you will also find it hard to part with most presents. Nowadays we no longer buy them on Christmas Eve, but we take advantage of all kinds of offers, where we can store all the presents we have been buying for months, because we all know that we have to have a safe and secret place to hide these items until the long-awaited magical night.
Of course, our storage units are a perfect option to keep all those pieces of excitement waiting to be delivered without fear of losing them or being discovered, especially if they are larger gifts. These secure, watertight places are accessible 365 days a year, so you can come and go whenever you need to using your access code. You can rent them for 15 days or more, which is enough time to be able to buy and keep them until you need them. We have facilities available in Empuriabrava, Girona and Sabadell. You can check them out and find out more here.
If your house is full of gifts and you want to move into a mansion, as you are going to need all the space in the world, you can also trust us to move it, as we are experts and professionals in this sector. We will move and manage everything for you, without the risk of any gift getting lost or damaged.
Hopping from one bargain to the next
As we mentioned before, November is already well underway, with Christmas decorations in all the shop windows, Black Friday bargains of all kinds, lights everywhere for those who miss the sun, and so on. It’s all very nice, although if you’re not one of those who like presents and everyone is going to buy compulsively like crazy.Ā Sometimes, we don’t even know what we are going to buy, but maybe this is the secret to a Happy Christmas, buy regardless of what is, but rather who it is for. If you want to get a head start on the presents from the “TiĆ³”, Father Christmas, or the Three Wise Men, you might already be a little late.
What is the secret to a Happy Christmas?
Getting back to Christmas, what is the real secret to a Happy Christmas? Well, the truth is that there is no single secret that suits everyone. Whether you are a Christmas fanatic who embraces the season wholeheartedly, or a hermit who hides from the cold until it passes, there is one common denominator: everyone has their own way of doing it. It may seem obvious, but it’s clear that no one has the perfect way to celebrate and enjoy Christmas, but making the most of every moment, whether it’s with family, alone, with friends or the love of your life, is what makes the difference.
No matter what kind of person you are, Metrecubic wishes you a Happy Christmas!
