How the LuckyTrip Team Does Christmas

HOW THE LUCKYTRIP TEAM DOES CHRISTMAS

Travel is our personal brand. Literally 💅

Makes total sense that some of us are going away for the Christmas period ✈

We thought we’d tell you where we’re headed and what we’re doing when we get there 🤔 SPOILER ALERT: It’s mainly eating and drinking festive shiz in dreamy places 🍷

Here it is, the post no one asked for but we want everyone to enjoy anyway...

Simon - Image Researcher

Aarhus, Denmark

What will they do:

“It still makes me uncomfortable to this day…”

Staring at a Christmas tree isn’t enough for the people of Denmark. Simon says (HA) they get boozy and sing and dance round it… like a weird Christmas tree lap-dance. Watch the pine needles, lads.

After this the fam have their annual football match in the snow then go for a stroll round Marselisborg deer forest.

Eats:

Simon has brought many things to the team - but most importantly - caramelized potatoes, a family Christmas spesh. Dinner is ham and duck followed by ‘DANK’ (his words) chocolate marzipan balls. Oh, and all the tuborg Julebryg - Danish Christmas beer - he can stomach… which is three.

Roy - Designer

Dublin, Ireland

What will they do:

Christmas won’t know what’s hit it…

Roy is planning on being blackout for the entire festive period. And we’re here for it.

His fam are back in South Africa so he’s spending the hols with his dad’s cousin in Dublin. He plans to “be that inappropriate embarrassing family member creating unnecessary drama.” Show of hands who wants to go to this Christmas gathering… yep, that’s everyone.

Eats

Eating? It’s a liquid diet for Roy, he “doesn't care what it is so long as it masks the reality of my Christmas existence...”

If his fam are reading this - he is 100% joking and cannot wait to experience an Irish Christmas. No, really.

Lara - Customer Happiness

Zurich, Switzerland

What will they do:

The Swiss tourist board may want to film Lara’s Christmas because it sounds like an actual fairytale…

The fam are headed for the dreamy Jura region to hole up in a chalet, go on wintry walks, and have mulled wine round the fire. She’ll be living her best Swiss life - think wholesome hikes and horseback rides against a backdrop of snowy peaks.

Eats:

Post-Christmas she’s going to the alps to ski and eat fondue. Then it’s back to Zürich for lazy brunches at Babu's and drinks at Fat Tony.

Billie - Operations Manager

What will they do:

Listen, we can’t all be jetting off for Christmas. Billie - our resident MK Don - is going back to Milton Keynes for the festive period.

What’s MK got going for it at Christmas time?

Roundabouts. Bout 130 of them. And errr… MK shopping centre. Real talk though, it’s all about family and food for Billie - and annihilating family members at the annual Christmas puzzle.

Eats:

It’s an alt-Christmas dinner. We’re talking goose (don’t @ us turkey) and a traditional Bulgarian vegan feast on Christmas Eve.

Drinks? “Bucks Fizz that just turns into everyone drinking a bottle of prosecco each before 11am.” Our girl.
