Hello dear ๐ Today I will tell you about how they celebrate New Year and Christmas in my homeland. Yes yes, exactly in this sequence ๐ And so, for us Ukrainians, New Year is one of the most important holidays of the year๐ค๐คทโโ๏ธ Hmm, it would seem that thereโs nothing to celebrate here, itโs just the end of the year๐คทโโ๏ธ So, I think that itโs December 31st for many people a mini vacation begins๐ the so-called โholiday vacationโ and people donโt work for almost 7-10-14 days (it all depends on the days of the week, what days the holidays fall on)๐ Well, from this moment it all begins.. People prepare for New Year's Eve as they prepare for Christmas. And at Christmas (January 7), people go to visit their parents and grandparents. For guys and girls, this is a time for parties and round-the-clock fun lasting a week or more ๐ We give gifts for the New Year, we cook a holiday dinner, we stay up all night, the next day we continue the fun, and the day after that too ๐ Well, for Christmas, it's seeing cousins and grandparents. Sometimes people sing Christmas songs, but this is more related to old customs (I also did this once ๐ and if I were in Ukraine now, I would do the same ๐) This year, Ukraine celebrated Christmas on December 25th. Perhaps these traditions will soon change, and finally Christmas will become as good and bright a holiday as for most people on this planetโค๏ธ
