  • This is yuour Christmas Around the World: Weekly Traditions podcast.

    Welcome to "Christmas Around the World," a festive journey through the diverse traditions and celebrations that make this holiday season so magical. From the snowy landscapes of Europe to the vibrant cultures of Asia and the Americas, we'll explore how different countries and communities come together to mark this special time of year.

    Let's start in South Africa, where Christmas is a public holiday celebrated with a mix of European and local traditions. Families set up Christmas trees, exchange gifts, and enjoy a festive meal that might include mince pies, turkey, and a barbecue outdoors. The country's warm summer weather means that wintry motifs are popular, even though it's the height of summer.

    Moving to the Caribbean, we find unique traditions in the Bahamas and Jamaica. In the Bahamas, Junkanoo festivals are held on Boxing Day and New Year's Day, featuring colorful costumes, music, and dancing. In Jamaica, Christmas is celebrated with a blend of African and British influences, including street dancing, parades, and a traditional meal of ackee, saltfish, and fried plantains.

    In Mexico, Christmas is a time for family and friends to come together. The celebrations begin on December 12 with the feast of La Guadalupana and continue through January 6, the Feast of the Epiphany. Families participate in the Posadas, a tradition where they go from door to door, reenacting the journey of Mary and Joseph as they searched for shelter in Bethlehem.

    Now, it's your turn to share your favorite holiday traditions. We'd love to hear from you. What's your favorite way to celebrate Christmas? Do you have a special family recipe or a unique cultural tradition?

Whether you're celebrating with family, friends, or in your own special way, we wish you a holiday season filled with warmth and happiness.
