I think Japanese customs are interesting for a person from another country. It is famous thing that people bow to each other when they meet acquaintance somewhere. This action is one of the greetings in my country. Especially this is important for older people than me.
Many people know it. We have to take off shoes in the house. We distinguish between inside and outside. I have never put on my shoes in my house. (expect when I forget something…)
When people become twenty years old we have a celebration. Many women wear the long-sleeved KIMONO then. It is traditional wear. I wore it a few yeas ago. I got the KIMONO from my mother. It was made by my grandmother. Twenty years old is thought to be an important year. So we have a celebration party. When I graduated from my university I wore another KIMONO.
In my country, when we are 18 years old, we will have a celebration.
