Christmas in Venezuela

In Venezuela we don't have a special holiday in spring or sumer season, but the favourite holiday for the most Venezuelan people is Christmas. In Venezuela the Christmas begins in november with the celebration of the feast of the Virgen de la Chiquinquira, who is the patron of all Zulians people. Additionally we have much custom for this season. Family comes together and prepare a typical Venezuelan dish called Hallaca. All family members have to bring some ingredients to prepare this special food. My father always takes care of buying the pig, which is one of the main ingredients. In the preparation of the hallacas whole family are involved, it was very funny that even the small children have tasks to perform. In Christmas Eve all the family members shera some gift. Close to the midnight the whole family meets in the backyard of the house to wait twelve o'clock at night and give the hug of the New Year. After midnight the people carry some bags and star to do twelve laps around the house. The meaning of this, is just for give you good look in your travel in this new year. All these and many more reason is Christmas my favourite holiday.

If I won 10 Millions.

First of all, I would go travel with my family for amount 2 moths. Buy a new house and two new cars. Would buy a huge amount of clothes to my wife and my daughter. My kids would buy all the toys they want. Would pay for the complete education of all my children. Would make some investments in the stock market. Put the money in various currencies and in several countries. In conclusion I would dedicate to read a lot and have a quiet life.

Living in Maracaibo

I think the best place for living in my country is Maracaibo city. This is the second larger city of Venezuela, it has three millions of people and it's quite better than country. It is good because they're many types of jobs, the people are really friendly and helpfully. there are many types of foods like pabellon, empanadas, tequenos...etc; In my opinion the city of Maracaibo is a wonderful place for living.
