❚ Christmas, new year and Valentine’s Day in Japan

Dear followers and readers, how are you? I’m TOSHI, a Japanese woman.

Do you know what Christmas, new year and Valentine’s Day are like in Japan? I’d like to talk about it today.

Christmas events are very popular in Japan as well, even though being a Christian is not common here. It’s strange when you think about it, but that’s how it is.

This is how people here talk about it:
“In a country with a lot of Christians, Christmas is a quiet day with family, while New Year’s Eve is a fuss with lots of parties. Japan is the opposite.”

I don’t know because I’ve never spent Christmas abroad, but that’s the impresion I get.
In Japan, Christmas is a big event for families to decorate the Christmas tree, eat cakes, have a party, and for lovers to make memories. In either case, gifts are an important part.

❚ Christmas is a special day for lovers

Christmas is a special day for lovers.

In Japan, many shops are closed during the New Year holidays, and it is common for families to spend time quietly together, so it is mostly an opportunity to spend time with each other at the end of the year.

The city is adorned with large trees and special illuminations to make you feel “the spirit of the season.”

For merchants, it’s a day of opportunity!! There are temptations like special dinners and fancy jewelry to trap guys with big wallets.

❚ On Valentine’s Day in Japan, women give chocolates to men

By the way, on Valentine’s Day in Japan, women give chocolates to men, but men don’t give chocolates on that day.

It’s different in foreign countries.

❚ My memory at a sushi restaurant

Here, I want to tell you a story, about my memory at a sushi restaurant.

The other day, I went to conveyor belt sushi restaurant with a Japanese man.

I was buzzed, and I touched his hand in the restaurant. He said nothing, but ten days later, he was terribly angry at me over the phone, and said so.

“It was a restaurant that had a family with little children. Don’t do it again in a public place.”

Not all Japanese men are like him, but he won’t give me chocolate for Valentine’s Day.

But he is a tough, gentle, and sincere person, and I am comfortable and fun to be with him.

However, if a man receives chocolate on Valentine’s Day, he will give a thank-you gift, etc.

❚ “People can’t easily change their values.” What kind of value do you have?

I don’t know what you think of this, but lately I think:

“People can’t easily change their values.“

What kind of value do you have? If you want, I want constructive opinions of yours.

In any case, everyone, have a nice Christmas and new year!
