How They Celebrate Christmas, Part 2
Not everyone celebrates Christmas.
Last year, I wrote about how they celebrate Christmas in Ireland, Mexico, Norway, Britain, Finland, Italy and (my personal favorite) New Zealand.
This year, we’re going to take a look at other cultures (not mentioned above) and how they celebrate Christmas.
In Ethiopia, Christmas is called Ganna and it is celebrated on the 7th of January.
In Japan, Christmas is more of a commercial event since their religion is Buddhism or Shinto.
In Spain, it is a very religious holiday.
Should you be spending Christmas elsewhere, prepare yourself. Especially, if you are spending it in an exotic location, the food, the decoration and the celebration will definitely be different.
