"Japanese don't celebrate Christmas." What a joke! Despite the majority of population following Buddhism and Shinto, I've been seeing "Merry Christmas" messages all around. And sitting in a Starbucks, enjoying my sweet fluorescent green macha tea latte, I'm never excused of listening to Christmas songs. Every single song!
But there is a big difference. While in Europe people traditionally spend Christmas with their families, Japanese tend to spend it with their boyfriend/girlfriend. It is much more important for couples, it seems to be like a little Valentine's day.
My last night in Japan will be Christmas. Without my family and without a boyfriend.
