As far as I know englishmen celebrate Christmas mostly. But in my country we celebrate New year. Usually, we - my family and I, celebrate it at home, but sometimes we go outside to the main square of our city, where big New Year tree is installed. It's very important holiday for us, because we bid to the old year farewell and meet the New one. That's why all preparations starrt from early morning. While kids are playing, mothers cook different traditional dishes and salads like pelmeny, seledka pod shuboy and etc. usually, when bells chime at 00:00 am, adults make wish for succesful year and drink chanpagne.
