Invent a holiday! Explain how and why everyone should celebrate.
Compared to other countries, Japan tends not to celebrate holiday. Just to take a rest of the day. In my case, due to an industry of my company, it’s shift working style so holidays don’t matter.
However, in Japan, we have two big holiday seasons.
First one is the end of April and the first week of May. We have a lot of public holidays in the week. So, if we use paid holimays, we’ll be able to have about 10days holidays!
Second one is common. Christmas and New Years. This season is also that many workers use paid holidays. Or depending on companies, they decide to take holidays. In addition, it’s more important New Years than Christmas for Japan. We go to a shrine and pray a year’s luck.
For me, how do I use these holidays? Of course, I spend traveling and taking rest! I feel super tired everyday so I go to somewhere else where I don’t know and relax.
