The Old New Year in Ukraine

I’d like to share with you interesting information about one fascinating tradition that Ukrainians are still following to these days.

You might have heard before that people in Ukraine and former Soviet Union celebrate New Year’s Eve twice: on December 31st and on January 13th. Of course it has a reasonable explanation. Such a tradition is connected with certain historical changes when people didn’t want to switch from the old Julian calendar to new Gregorian calendar. It sure is understandable that changes were inevitable so as a result New Year is celebrated twice. Most of Ukrainian families keep holiday spirit and their Christmas trees till the evening on January 13th when whole family gathers once more at the dinner table and give each other presents. If you have beloved people living in Ukraine, UkraineGiftDelivery will gladly provide any help needed to deliver your gifts to Ukraine in order to keep the tradition alive.

If people you care about the most are living miles away from you, you can still create a magical surprise for those you love. It could be a romantic gift set or perfumes for the woman of your heart, or lovely gorgeous fruit and gourmet baskets for your family, which no doubt misses you a lot on holidays. If your close person has a child in the family it would be a very thoughtful gesture to send a little thing for kid too. It can be a box of chocolates or a toy, which is a real holiday surprise for the little buddy.

Holidays are really important time to remind of your care and warm feelings. It happens that most of the time we are preoccupied with everyday routine and we can forget to remind our close people of the pure feeling of love we have for them. Take a moment to show how much you appreciate them in your life and how much you care.

And remember, you don’t need a holiday to express your love and gratitude. Show your beloved one’s tender and sweet gesture for an occasion and without any reason and it will bring more smiles and happiness in their lives.
