My culture

Soooooo hi it's me again.

But anyway I'm going to tell you about my culture.

So I'm half Dutch because my dad is from Holland and my mum is Kiwi.
We basically do what your average Kiwi family does.

I now will tell you a bit about dutch culture.

Christmas

Among the Dutch, Christmas (which lasts two days) is a time of togetherness. Gifts are generally not exchanged. Usually it is celebrated with ones direct, and not extended, family. It’s celebrated on December 25 and 26. There are several activities being organised in Enschede (A place in Holland) during the Christmas holidays.

Easter

The Dutch celebrate two days of Easter (on Sunday and the Monday). During Easter there are various customs like the Easter Bunny, Egg Hunting and Easter Fires. Egg hunting is a game during which decorated eggs, real hard-boiled ones or fake, filled with or made of chocolate candies, of various sizes, are hidden in various places for children to find. Real eggs may further be used in egg tapping contests. Like in many places in the northern and eastern parts of the Netherlands, ‘Paasvuren’ (Easter Fires) are lit on Easter Day at sunset in and around Enschede.

If you want to attend a mass during Easter you can inform about them at your local church.

 Anyway I hope you enjoyed but goodbye
