This was my first Christmas in France!!! Here are 5 things that I’ve observed.
1 Clean shoes
Place your shoes below the tree (or ideally, under the chimney) on 24th December. That’s right, no socks! Make sure your shoes don’t smell is essential 😉 Your family will then place your presents under or next to your shoes. Don’t say that I didn’t warn you 😛
2 Unboxing is on 25th Dec
Unbox is on the 25th December morning and ALL family members MUST be present. The kids couldn’t sleep at all wahaha
3 Christmas eve, Christmas lunch, dinner…
The meals are all huge and with lots of punch, aperitif, champagne, wine, digestif… So after day one, all meals started to blur into one. Referring to my other post, please be reminded that ‘food coma’ does not exist in the French culture. Therefore, be strong and do NOT nap in between. Nap is not an option. Nieces and nephews will not let me either.
4 Solution to food coma
Option A – very loud children
Option B – go for a walk, no matter how cold
5 Traditional food
- Foie Gras (cold)
- Compote (meshed apples / apples sauce)
- Boudin blanc(beef sausage)
- Chestnut
- Salmon
- Turkey
- Duck
- Oyster (more for new year according to historians, but my family seem to have it for Christmas as well).
*Champagne is a daily thing, right? This is France 😛 (joking)
That’s it! My ‘French Christmas’ observation is based on my family’s tradition. Perhaps you do it differently? Please do share. 😀

Every now and again, Lucas and I skip on a weekend out and instead of going clubbing or whatever, we spend a Saturday evening playing online slots. There are some games he loves, there are some I prefer, but in general, we have no problems picking what to play next. With almost an endless number of free casino slots available in 2025, how do you even begin choosing where to start? Even the most experienced players can get overwhelmed, but we’re here to help. Here are some of our favorite free online slots: The heart of the Mega Joker experience is its progressive jackpot, allowing players to win life-changing sums. Each bet contributes to this jackpot, growing until one lucky player claims it. Mega Joker is a simple game designed around a slot machine standing on a casino floor. Released by NetEnt, Mega Joker is a 3-reel, 5-payline slot that recreates the look and feel of old-school fruit machines. Unlike many flashy video slots, this game keeps it simple: cherries, lemons, bells, and jokers light up the reels. But beneath that classic surface lies one of the most generous Return to Player (RTP) rates in the entire online slot industry—up to 99% with optimal play.
