In Egypt we celebrate the 29th of April as the beginning of the spring season, which we name (Sham Alnasim). We go to the parks , play and color the eggs, but we have what is more important than the eggs, salted fish, this food is essential that day

As a Christian country we celebrate Easter in a grand manner. Families get together  for a feast. Many attend church also. Easter eggs are “mandatory”, mostly if there are kids around. What we don´t have in our tradition is Easter egg hunts. In my country right now we are at the beginning of autumn.

I do celebrate Easter, twice, the Catholic and Orthodox. Thraditions are different, the idea is the same. This is the holiday to remind us to be nicer, kinder, forgiving in this tough world. The symbol of spring for me is anticipation. Being a born optimist, that kind of anticipation is always positive.

No. we have no Easter. But we have the “arbor day” which is in the day of 12th of March every year.



I think it is our symbol of spring. During that day, all many people can plant many trees.
