As some of you might already have noticed, since the beginning of the week, there is a red decorated thing with presents on it in the office. This is a originally German tradition that spread all over Europe. It is a custom to celebrate the days of advent and to look forward to Christmas by counting the days. Every day there is a small present to open, from the first of December till Christmas (24th). This calendar is a traditional version filled with Chocolate and other sweets. But there are numerous other versions, with stories, pictures, tea, coffee, toys and so on. For those who want to know more about this tradition, here is the Wikipedia Link:
