how working overseas helps your career
I believe Christmas became a big deal for Brits and Americans during the 1800s. Before then, I know the Brits were big on New Year's. One finds records of big New Year's presents for Queen Elizabeth I, for instance, but not Christmas presents.
Thanks for sharing! :)

Passed through Tashkent a couple of times, whilst on the way to Shymkent on the Kazakh side. Though we did not spend time in Tashkent, the buildings and the atmosphere was really great.
Happy New Year!
I'm from Tashkent, too. Presently an attorney in Honolulu, Hawaii. Was really happy to see you here. I enjoy this site and liked your posting.

The traditions are always nice. But sometimes, I like the change once in awhile. So maybe next year, instead of gathering all the family in our house again, we could all go together someplace interesting to celebrate New Year.
