Have you ever been a guest in someone’s home in a foreign country? When? Why? What was different?
Each
country has its own traditions. A few years ago I was in Australia. And
there we visited armenian-australian and also australian people’s
houses. I can say that there
were really different from each other. As we know the Armenians are
very hospitable nation and I can
not say the same thing about Australians. But what is important The Austrians attach great importance to communication. And
what about the Armenians. In Armenia when housewives hear
that someone is going to visit them, they get confused and they start
thinking about what to cook to amaze their guests. And finally the
guests
arrive. The first words are, "Please feel you as you’re in your house.
Take your jackets, take your seats". And then starts the most important
part. It’s not important if their house is so small, they should put the
biggest table. And what about dishes. They
put so many different dishes,and if you try not to taste each of them, I can say that the house lady will shrink. But
of course my description doesn't match
to all families. So, in Australia everything was different.
And I want to write about one thing that I really liked there. There is
a tradition like this. When you are going to go to someone’s house, you
can cook something and take it with you. And then when everyone has
already gathered in one place there will be many
types of dishes, and I think it’s interesting. You can share your
traditional dishes and so on. And finally the most important thing is
that the housewives also spend time with their guests, as in Armenia
they’re always busy in the kitchen.
