Hey, Louis!

I am writing to tell you something about customs and festivals.

Everyone likes holidays because one doesn't need to go to school or work. Although all holidays mean no school or work, not all holidays are the same. Sometimes you will go out with friends; At other times, you stay at home to eat, chat and have fun with your family. For example, in America, everyone thinks that New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are the days to get together with friends. Christmas is a time to stay at home and exchange gifts with family. However, the situation in Japan is just the opposite. For example, in Japan, New Year is a time to eat, chat, entertain and go to temples with family. But Christmas is the day when boyfriends and girlfriends go out to exchange gifts. Christmas was supposed to celebrate the birth of Christ.

I have been interested in foreign customs since I was a child. If you study these different holiday customs, you will learn about different history and culture. This is much more interesting than learning them in the library from morning till night.

Love,

prosecute
