Christmas, Latin style! Posted by on Dec 15, 2008 in Spanish Culture

We’re used to seeing Christmas in movies and TV and it involves snow, cold, chimneys, and all of the North American and European style feature. However, things are different in Latin America: it is warmer, and for Latinos, we like to party! Usually we have supper at someone’s house and return for the famous Christmas lunch the next day. Music is a very important part of Latin celebrations (Spanish-speaking America as well as Brazil) so I have chosen a very fun video by Puerto Ricans Olga Tañón, Manny Manuel and Victor Manuelle (one of the three greatest merengueros nowadays!) and they are at a Christmas party. So, vamos a parrandear!

Nos vemos prontito!
