Colombian people like a lot parties, and the new year celebration it's very important for us.

We have had traditional custom to celebrate the new year all family in a restaurant, club or in our houses and we wait until midle night. During the clock chimes every body eat grapes and wish somenthin each grape, drink champagne, change their old clothes for new ones. They do differents things wishing the year is starting will be better.

After twelve p.m. every body take a special dinner and sometimes then go to some night club or somenthing like that.

In my hometown is a traditional custom too, on first day the new year go to our farm with our families and some friends to have a BBq like relaxing day.
