The aroma of coffee in Luxembourg
When it comes to romance, the first thing that comes to mind is France and Italy, which are famous for their romance. Of course, this is what I thought before I came to the country of Luxembourg. When I visit Luxembourg, when I say the word romantic, the first country that comes to mind becomes Luxembourg.
The romance of Luxembourg, there is no fat powder flavor, it is a very refreshing and homely romance. "one Luxembourg, one rose garden, two Luxembourg, one coffee rally, three Luxembourg, one small band." Xiaodong, the tour guide, said that this is a proverb that has spread widely in Luxembourg. It is fascinating that this proverb depicts life in Luxembourg as picturesque and romantic.
It was nearly noon when we arrived in Luxembourg. After we got off the bus, we first went to a Chinese restaurant for dinner. Under the awning in front of the Chinese restaurant, there was a mini-coffee bar. At that time, there was a table opposite two blond girls drinking coffee. Oh, what a picture of "two people from Luxembourg having a coffee rally". Outside the seat, there is a small fence surrounded by flowers and vines, beside which there are a row of rose pots, the flowers are blooming brightly, and there is really a wonderful artistic conception of "she smiles in the bushes". Every window of the restaurant is also covered with pots of roses. After dinner, I went shopping with white walls and black tiles, and roses blossomed in front of large and small windows without exception.
Xiaodong said that the enthusiasm of growing roses has penetrated into the life of everyone in Luxembourg. Some cities in Luxembourg have also made a special law related to roses: at 8 o'clock every morning, every family must open the window curtains facing the street so that the roses on the windowsill can be displayed; if there is a violation, they will be found by the flower patrol, whether intentionally or unintentionally, with a financial penalty of 30 euros for "covering the flower crime" each time. "cover up the crime"? This is the first time I have heard of such a romantic "sin". This kind of care for roses is really a romantic portrayal of "a Luxembourg person and a rose garden"!
Interestingly, as soon as we had dinner, we saw several people playing and singing, some playing guitar, some playing saxophone, some playing trumpet, some playing accordion, like a small concert on the side street in front of the hotel. It's really "three Luxembourg people and a small band". At that time, there were many people in the street listening to them playing. Ha ha, our meal, the smell of roses floating, music leisurely, eating can be said to be full of color and flavor.
After dinner, I walked down the street and saw a strange team of about a dozen people, dressed in medieval knight costumes and helmets of various colors, some with swords, some with spears, some with big knives, and some with trumpets. In the middle of the line, there was an aunt with gray hair and a white coat and blue skirt, like a cook in a medieval court, with wooden shackles on her head and hands. The men in the line shouted loudly and smiled happily. And the aunt who was wearing shackles laughed happily. I don't know what they are performing, but I happen to be absent, and I can't figure it out. However, after traveling to so many countries, this is the first time I have seen such a vivid medieval street performance, so, with a large flow of people, I followed the team through a whole side street before I stopped to watch them go away.
In the fragrance of flowers, in coffee, in music, the people of Luxembourg show their happy personality heartily. The natural, joyful and romantic state of mind of the people of Luxembourg can be seen from this. The happy personality of the people of Luxembourg in creating and enjoying life is casual, affectionate and casual, and there is no trace of deliberation. No wonder there is a popular saying that a person living in Luxembourg must be a happy person. Starting from the heart, is the real happiness, is the real romance! And the people of Luxembourg are people who really understand the simplest and most common happy and romantic philosophy of life.
