Differences manners in different countries

 Every country has it’s own manners and in some of them they are different! As for me, I have some bad manners, so I want to argue today about them. There are a lot of countries with different manners, but I can write a little list of manners that are same all over the world:
Ø  1. Knock the door!
Ø  2. Every time say HELLO
Ø  3. Don’t chew with your mouth open
Ø  4. And I think in every country is written, that we must to enter the place disabilities.
Ø  5. And of course, do not eat in classrooms!
For about differences between different countries:
l  For example, food in India and eating manners. Every gentlemen think that eat by hand it is disgusting! But I think that it is normal, because for this manner there is a technology for eating by hands in India.
l  And for example, in Japan everyone bow to each other, but in Europe it isn’t manner like this!

My bad manners:
Mr. Siddall always says me to knock the door, but I always forgot! I forget not because in my country there is no rule about knocking, I forget because I am not every day knocking to teacher’s room.
And he always says me to not say STOP at lessons, when I want to ask him something, that I must to say EXUSE ME…

Good manners:
I always bow and say hello to teachers in CIS.

My travelling on winter holidays to Akita

   This year I am still stand in Japan! Usually on winter holidays there is one tradition in our family, we always go to health hotel every New Year to Christmas. But in Japan there are not hotels, like this! So, for not bad holidays my mom said that we will go to my mom friend in Akita, she has a son, and he is my age, so we are enjoy playing together! They are from Ukraine too! Sometimes on summer holidays we go to him and swim in ocean, be cause near his house there is very clear and nice ocean. I think that in winter it will be interesting too, because my mom said that there is some snow at winter in Akita.
   Near his house there is very big onsen, but we haven`t any time to go there, and I hope that in this time, at cold winter, I will go to onsen!
   As usually, we will go by car, with all of my family. This trip from Tokyo to Akita takes about seven hours, it is very difficult for me, because sometimes I have a stomachache, when I am going long time in car of airplane, but I enjoy my travelling! I can`t go very long time, so that we once in hour stop to go to the bathroom or to drink, eat... When we usually come, it is evening outside, we eat and go sleep. When I was child, I slept on his bed, while he was sleeping in room, but on floor. But when we grew up, when I come every time to him, I always sleep in living room on floor. On the next day at the morning we usually go to ocean, but I am not sure that we can go in winter on ocean.. So I hope that he has sled, ski, skate or something like winter sport! I hope that it will be not in every places snow, because I want to ride his bike this year. I want to do a big snowman and than, when I will come back home, I will do photo of it.
   I go there with one goal, to relax my brain and body! So, I will put my favorite book and read it too.

At winter

Winter in different countries is very different. For example now, in November in Ukraine is already snowing, but here, in Japan, there is nothing, to makes you think of winter! At this time I usually sledge, ski, skate, make a snowman and play with snowballs in company with my friend. Near my house there is a lake, in summer everyone are swimming there, but every winter this lake makes in ice! And players of hockey, every year clean up it and training (skating) there.
   After school or on weekends we with my friend sledging down through this lake too! Every time when we are going to “ one hour “, we usually come back home after three hours))). 
   The temperature in Ukraine now is very cold, but in Japan, conversely, not so cold. For example, since October in Ukraine I usually wear a warm coat and warm hat, but in Japan October look like September or August in Ukraine! Really I was shocked first time, because no one in October did not wear hats and coats! But now, it is rather colder..
And especially I am shocked, that in Japan there is not any autumn and holidays, because in Ukraine there were autumn holidays, but in Japan i am still studying!
   Usually on winter holidays, I and my family go to something like winter hotel, for better health, but not in this year, because in Japan there is not something like this!
   So that I think that at winter in Japan is very boring! But my mom said that we will go to north to my friend`s house and we will spend our winter holidays there, in company our friends and with SNOW!
   I hate winter only for one thing, there is so cold in December in Japan at big house!!! OH, and I forgotten to ask everyone, is i true that in Japan there is never snowing?
