Yesterday was an evening full of emotions at VDL house. We celebrated our traditional Secret Santa, a magical moment filled with laughter, hugs, and secret gifts that brought us even closer together. The girls put so much effort into choosing the perfect details for their friends, and the result was simply delightful. During the gift exchange, we enjoyed delicious homemade hot chocolate with whipped cream. 🎁✨

It was also a bittersweet evening, as we had to say goodbye to some of our companions who won’t be returning after Christmas. Ana Teresa, Sophia, and Triana, we will miss you so much. You will always be part of the VDL family, and we wish you all the best on your new journeys. 💌

Although we are all excited to return home and celebrate with our families, we know we will also miss our beloved VDL and the unique moments we have shared here.
