Spain
(pasta, paella, you name it), having bread on the table is a 
necessary requirement for any meal. An average Spaniard will
get through at least a couple small slices of bread with every
meal, eaten alongside starters and mains, typically in between
mouthfuls of whatever else you’re eating. Bread is considered a
staple of every diet and does not have the negative image it has in
other countries, where it’s seen as an unhealthy dietary choice, or
something poorer people eat as a way of stretching out a meal.
Ever walked into a tapas bar only to be greeted by a carpet of
toothpicks and napkins? Here in Spain it’s completely fine to
chuck your litter on the floor in bars – in fact, it’s what’s
expected of you. Rather than have bins everywhere, the owners
simply go round at the end to sweep it all up before the next
round of customers. The situation on the streets is a little better,
although generally the country does seem to have a littering
problem. On the plus side, if you keep your eyes open, in big
cities you can find all sorts of wonders dumped by the side of the
road, and it’s not uncommon for people to dump books, clothes
and furniture on the city sidewalks.

around the town attended by a host of dancers and musician
from all over the country. The bear is a man covered from
head to foot in a straw costume.
During the 19th century Straw Bears - men or boys clothed in
a layer of straw - were a familiar Plough Monday .
This quirky tradition sees people
scrambling down the famously steep Cooper’s Hill, running
after a heavy Double Gloucester cheese wheel which has been
recorded to gather speeds of up to 70mph. Although its exact
origins are unknown, it is thought to have been inspired by
pagan rituals where bunches of flaming brushwood were
rolled down the hill in celebration of the birth of a new year
after winter
Dating from the 17th century, Ottery St Mary’s Tar Barrels is
perhaps one of the grandest Bonfire Night celebrations.
Starting in early evening with small barrels carried by
younger boys, the event works up to a men’s ceremony where
17 barrels of up to 30kg are lit in meticulous order and
wrestled among the participants and carried through the
Japan
clear down to the floor. Koreans might bow a little, but never to the
extreme the Japanese do. The Japanese pray before the god shelf in
their homes because if they don’t they think the person they have
enshrined there will cause bad fortune for them. The put rice and tea
there everyday. If hey are Buddhist, the clap three times when they
pray. If hey are Shinto, you don’t hear any noise. They go in circles
when they talk. They are never supposed to come right out and go
straight for the answer because it is rude. Even if they speak Foreign
language, they may use a translator because they want to be humble
and not show their knowledge off because it is rude. If they are mad
at you, they will yell at someone else and let that person tell you. You
have to look for the bathroom in a public place in Japan because it is
rude to ask where it is. Guys don’t ask girls out on dates. There are
two ways for them to get together, the go between, and group dating.
In group dating, they hang out with a group. If they like someone in
the group, they sit by them. The girls chase, but the boys don;t. If a
boy realizes a girl likes him, and he likes her, he doesn’t tell her. He
buys her a gift. Gift giving is big in Japan. If you want to be friends
with someone, you guy them a gift. If they also want to be friends
