20
years I have celabrated christmas in the same place,
in germany. This time was different, because this time
I celebrated in Latinamerica. Here x-mas is very different..and without snow :)
First I think that the buildings, lamps, windows and
everything what you can see in the street is lighted
in many different colors. Seemes like bogotá
is "burning". Also the house were I live was
full of light.
What kind of presents do they make here? Well, in my
host-family presents weren´t that important, there
were no presents, but that doesn´t mean that everybody
was sad. The opposite! The main thing is that there
is a lot of fun in xmas. You are together with the family
and everybody is dancing, drinking, talking.. a lot
of fun! It is like a party in the house.

This is the "parque 93" (the park 93). It is a very
nice park and in xmas everything was lighted, it looked very great
in every little corner:
|
This park is in the north of bogotá and in this
time there are a lot of people. The park is surroundet
by many restaurants, you really should try them there!
Also a lot of music and people who are singing there makes
the atmosphere very great. |
This
is how the buildings and the streets can look like in that time:

X-Mas
in Bogotá is different. Is not like in germany. I am
used to have this festival a little bit more quiet. Sometimes
I remembered to my home in germany, and I wished to have only
5 minutes to celabrate that with my familiy. But anyway, I wasn´t
that sad or something, but it is normal to think like that.
In General it was great, and a great experience! Everytime again!
