Every advert on TV makes us cry, and we spend the whole month reassuring ourselves that &#8216;the diet starts next year!&#8217; Aside from this, December is the best month of the year and filled with the anticipation that Christmas is just around the corner! &#8216;Christmas&#8217; is very different depending which part of the world you live in. If you&#8217;re from a country that&#8217;s cold during December then you&#8217;re familiar with singing in the living room, and watching the snow outside (or at least that&#8217;s what the movies tell us!). If you&#8217;re from a country that&#8217;s hot during December, all those movies about getting lost in a New York snowstorm during Christmas don&#8217;t make any sense to you, and you dream about the year that you wake up on Christmas Day and see white outside.<\/p>\n<p>Well, someday you&#8217;ll experiene Christmas in a country with a different climate to your own&#8230; Here are the main differences between spending Christmas in a hot country, and spending Christmas in a cold country, so you can simultaneously stay toasty and cool AF!<\/p>\n<h2>\ud83c\udf84\u00a0The beginning of December<\/h2>\n<h3>\ud83d\udd25\u00a0In a hot country<\/h3>\n<p>December is here and so are your summer holidays!
