I don’t know about you, but I love a good market and can happily spend an entire day walking around, browsing stalls and enjoying the vibe. Festive markets are even more special – especially as they make gift shopping easier. After all, it is way better to do your shopping out in the fresh air, with unique, hand made gifts and goodies, rather than risk overcrowded shopping centres.
