to travel to as many as we can.
We've already visited some of
the main ones: Paris, Sydney, London and Edinburgh

New Years Eve
celebrations in the countries of
Asia are more traditionally
associated with the Chinese New Year
(which in 2014 will fall on February
10th - check back on this site
closer to the time for more details,
we're planning on adding a new
section specifically for the Chinese
New Year, or CNY as it is commonly
abbreviated) but there are still
widespread celebrations to mark the
Gregorian new year, and not just in
the expat communities. In China
itself (or more properly in its
current incarnation the People's
Republic of China, or PRC)
the new year is commonly celebrated with
huge live concerts - the main cities
to hold these events include Taoyuan,
Taichung, Taipei, and Kaoshiung.
In more recent times the country
is also embracing modern
technologies to help communicate
between cities using live video
streaming, which allows cities in
diverse locations across a vast
country to join the count down together. The
most crowded city is the capital, Taipei,
where large crowds head to Taipei 101
and the multitude of modern shopping
centers of the Xinyi
District.
In Thailand
the the traditional New Year is
known as Songkran and falls on April
13 or April 14. However, they also celebrate the Gregorian
New Year on January 1. In cities
right around the country,
celebrations of the New Year is accompanied
by countdowns, fireworks, and concerts,
notably, the CentralWorld Square at
CentralWorld in downtown Bangkok,
Surin Beach on the popular holiday
island of Phuket and Pattaya Beach in Pattaya,
while local hotels, pubs,
restaurants and nightclubs will also
join in the festivities by hosting
New Year's Eve parties.
