Festivals are a major part of my cultural experience. Celebrations like Dashain and Tihar bring my family and community together. During Dashain, we receive blessings from our elders with tika and jamara, symbolizing love and protection. Tihar, the festival of lights, is my favorite because we decorate our homes with diyas and play Deusi-Bhailo, which fills the air with music and joy. These festivals are more than just celebrations; they remind me of the importance of family, gratitude, and togetherness.

Food is another way I experience culture. Nepali cuisine, such as dal bhat, momo, and sel roti, is more than just delicious—it represents warmth and hospitality. Cooking traditional dishes with my family is a special bonding experience. Sharing meals with loved ones teaches me the value of generosity and how food connects people across generations.

Language and music are powerful parts of my non-material culture. Speaking Nepali with my family keeps me connected to my roots, even when I am far from home. Nepali folk songs and modern hits bring back memories of festivals and celebrations. Music is more than entertainment; it carries the stories and emotions of my culture, helping me feel closer to my heritage.

Traditional clothing holds deep cultural significance. I feel a strong sense of pride when wearing a Daura Suruwal or a Sari during festivals and special occasions. These outfits are not just clothing; they are symbols of our identity and history. The intricate designs and vibrant colors reflect the diversity of Nepali culture, and wearing them connects me to the traditions of my ancestors.

Family values and traditions are at the heart of my cultural experience. In Nepali culture, family is everything. I have learned to respect my elders, celebrate milestones together, and support my loved ones through both joy and hardship. Ceremonies like weddings or rice-feeding rituals (Annaprashan) remind me how culture passes through generations. These values shape my character and guide my relationships.
