Merry Christmas

1. The traditional meal is turkey or another traditional food from the region. It’s common for American people to make a reservation in a fancy restaurant, and at night they do some reading.

2. In Ecuador, families pray "the novena." In Latin America, people usually do the shopping a few weeks before Christmas, but in the USA, parents buy gifts one or two months before. It does not matter where people are; many people celebrate the birth of Jesus, in the Catholic religion.

3. However, there is a clear difference between celebrations in Latin America and Europe and the United States. In Ecuador, families make a family dinner, as well as in the USA.

4. Talking about Christmas worldwide is fun, but it would take a long time.
