Hello!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
My name is Vasiliki and I come from Chalkida, Greece. Here in Greece celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Day in many ways. The day before Christmas Eve we sing Christmas carols that they are called "kalada". We go to people's houses and we sing "kalada" accompanied by a musical instrument, the “triangle”. People give us money as a treat. We do the same the day before New Year’s Eve but singing a different carol this time.

Christmas "kalada": https://youtu.be/o42izKe5xHQ
And here's "kalada" in Thraki :

All kids are really excited at this time of the year and are looking forward to it!

I hope you enjoy it like we do!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

While you're stuck at home waiting for travel restrictions to be lifted, we invite you on a virtual visit to each and every one of our Places to Go in 2020.

When we published our list of 52 places to visit in 2020 three months ago, no one could have guessed how much our world would change. And now, given our stay-at-home circumstances, we'd like to invite you on a series of virtual journeys: You can wander into the belly of an Egyptian pyramid, explore the house where Mozart was born, or fly over the rocky peaks of Glacier National Park. Sure, you'll be looking at a screen, but you'll see new places, hear new languages and pick up some interesting tidbits about other cultures. Call it a warm-up for that moment when you'll actually be packing your bags and heading out for your next adventure.
[Sebastian Modak, the 2019 52 Places Traveler contacted friends he met on his journey around the world to see how they were doing during the pandemic.]

Good news, nature lovers: Without leaving home, you can spot a moose in the forest, go for an evening swim, or enjoy the views from the top of a spectacular waterfall. These 360 videos of the Swedish outdoors allow you to choose your own perspective as the scene unfolds. Enjoy.

So brilliant is the sunshine on display in this panoramic tour of the Bahamas that you might be tempted to put on sunglasses (or at least dim the brightness of your screen). Gaze at the turquoise waters of Pipe Cay, stroll across the boardwalk through Lucayan National Park, then gape at the size of the ships in the cruise terminal in Nassau.

For roadsters and adrenaline junkies, the remote Pamir Highway, a spectacular, high-altitude passage marked by yak sightings, gargantuan potholes and jaw-dropping mountain views, is the ride of a lifetime. And if you can't drive it yourself, you can still ride shotgun with the travel blogger and videographer Pete Rojwongsuriya, who did. Don't forget to fasten your seatbelt.

Antakya, also known as Hatay, overflows with rich treasures of Christian history, both below ground in its current archaeological excavations, and above it in stone churches carved into mountainsides. Explore the city in this time-lapse tour, then step into one of those treasures, the Church of St. Pierre, to explore frescoes and mosaics dating all the way back to the fourth century.

Pastoral Molise, home to the traditional Transumanza ritual, remains blessedly undiscovered but has a notable artistic pedigree. At its foundation is the Praitano-Eliseo collection, the most significant collection of Molise art from the 19th and 20th centuries. You can now explore it online, thanks to a project, "From the Invisible to the Visible," created by the Regional Directorate of the Museums of Molise. The site is in Italian; click on "i ritratti"in the upper right corner to navigate to the paintings.

Here in Greece we make a traditional sweet for Christmas and New Year’s Day that every kid loves. It's called ''melomakarona'' and they are delicious! They melt in your mouth especially if you add Greek honey! You have to try them! Also, on Christmas Eve we leave one of those delicious cookies together with a glass of milk for Santa Claus to taste!

Children's books

The book that helped invent Christmas. Or at least, our popular view of it in modern culture. It is a story about transformation, and redemption, and as such set a precedent for so many Christmas stories since. Though a very early Dickens (he wrote it, depressingly, when he was 30) it still feels modern in its concerns about capitalism and poverty and the dehumanising effect of work and the healing power of kindness. I'm re-reading it again this year.

This book was very much in my mind when I was writing my own Father Christmas story. The great thing about this book is that is so different to so many Christmas books. The polar opposite in fact. While most Christmas books seek to reveal the magic in the everyday, this shows us the ordinariness behind the magic, and so is wickedly subversive.

This book brings me to tears. The soft-eyed memories of warm, happy childhood Christmasses is in marked contrast to a lot of what we know about Thomas's adult life, and reminds us of the power of Christmas as a symbol of innocence and wonder. It connects us back to the child we all left behind.

This is one of my favourite books, and features healthy doses of both Christmas and nostalgia, so I am putting it here.
Quiz: which of the Little Women are you?
5. Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris

One of the funniest things in print. This is a collection of essays about Christmas. The first one, Santaland Diaries, is Sedaris's take on working as an elf during holiday season at Macy's department store and is painful in all the right ways. Another essay reviews the local school's Christmas pageant with delightful mischief.

The Snowman And The Snowdog - it wouldn't be Christmas without the Snowman in some form or another... Photograph: Publicity image from film company

Come on. It's The Snowman.

I utterly adored the Dark is Rising sequence as a child. A truly epic battle between good and evil, or rather between Light and Dark, and the second novel, called The Dark is Rising, is the festive one, but not in a warm, glowing sense. It is set in a freezing, snow-ravaged wintery world, far harsher than anything Narnia could offer. Will, the hero, must find the six "signs of the Light" - circles quartered by a cross in wood, bronze, iron, water, fire and stone - before twelfth night. An eternal classic.

My children loved Mog, and Mog's adventures with the Christmas tree will always remind me of those early Christmases with my children. The great thing about Mog is that she is a very real cat. And this is a very real Christmas. Judith Kerr is wonderful.

I'm not the biggest Tolkien fan, I must admit, but I make an exception for his letters from the big man himself. These were letters Tolkien gave to his children every year, and tell wonderfully detailed little tales of life in the North Pole, about reindeer and fantastical polar bears. It's magical.

This is one of the most poignant stories ever told, about a poor girl selling matches in the cold and dying from hypothermia. On New Year's Eve the girl lights matches to warm herself and in the flame sees visions of a Christmas tree and a holiday feast. The ending is devastating, even though Andersen believed it to be a happy one, as the girl ends in heaven. But it is an unforgettable tale, about the power of imagination to warm us like fire, and fits the Christmas spirit perfectly in the sense of us needing light and hope amid the dark of winter.

A Boy Called Christmas

Matt Haig's first children's book, Shadow Forest, won the Nestle/Smarties Prize and the Blue Peter Book of the Year Award. His latest book is A Boy Called Christmas, illustrated by Chris Mould, and is the true story of Father Christmas. Buy A Boy Called Christmas at the Guardian bookshop.
