It is already the middle of November, which means it is the time for us to reflect upon the events of the past year and to spend some time with our families, of course. There are two holidays which lend themselves especially well to large family gatherings around this time of the year, Diwali and Thanksgiving.
Diwali is common all over the world, mostly among Hindu, Sikh, and Jain communities. It is also called the 카지노 게임 컬렉션śfestival of lights카지노 게임 컬렉션ť and oil lamps are traditionally lit to celebrate the victory of light over darkness. For many families from Asian countries in particular, Diwali is a chance to open the doors to friends, family members, and acquaintances and to share a large feast.
Thanksgiving, on the other hand, is a typical North-American holiday. The celebration which is mostly typical for the US, commemorates the pilgrims that landed on Plymouth Rock and how they survived their first winter only with the help of a group of Native Americans. Throughout the centuries, every family has added their own traditions and stories but what remains the same is that Thanksgiving is an important festivity, centered on being grateful and inviting others into our hearts and homes.
For many expats, these family holidays can be a tough time, especially while living in a country where they are not celebrated in the same big way. We have some options for you, though, to spend these days with other expats, have a great time, and make new friends along the way.
