Here in the U.S., those of the Christian faith are accustomed to celebrating the holidays with such things as Christmas trees, stockings and carolers, but this rich tradition differs when you travel outside the U.S. Much of it is based on the same philosophy, but the celebrations and icons can change. For instance, in Russia, the Communist government did not allow Christmas trees. To get around that, Christians erected “New Years” trees. Each global culture adds its own holiday touch to the celebration of Christmas, so dust off your passport and let’s take a trip around the globe to see just what other countries do to celebrate…
