My name is Lee and I`m from Christchurch, New Zealand.
Christchurch is the third biggest city in New Zealand and is located in the South Island.
Let me tell you some famous things about New Zealand! New Zealand is famous for really delicious "flat white" coffee, "Whitakers" chocolate and fish & chips.
New Zealand is also famous for being a very beautiful and clean country. It is such a beautiful country that a lot of movies are filmed there! The Lord of the Rings movies and the new Disney's Mulan movie was filmed in New Zealand!
I come from a big family. I have two brothers and three sisters. I am the second eldest sibling. We also have two cats! Their names are Manny and Sid.
In my spare time I like to play board games with my friends, I like to go to cafes and I enjoy watching movies and Netflix. My favorite drink is bubble tea (タピオカティー). My favorite movie series are Star Wars, Avengers and Harry Potter. I also used to watch anime when I was in high school. My favorite anime were, Pokemon, Assassination Classroom (暗殺の教室), Naruto and Card Captor Sakura.
This is my fourth time coming to Japan, but my first time living in Japan. The last time I came to Japan, I rode the Shimanamikaido from Shikoku to Honshu across the Seto Inland Sea and I climbed Mt.Fuji! My favorite thing about Japanese culture is Kimono culture and all the beautiful temples and shrines. One day I would like to attend a tea ceremony and go watch a sumo wrestling show.
Merry Christmas everyone! Today it is Christmas Eve. Many of you may be going to go and see some Christmas illuminations today and tomorrow.
Christmas illuminations are a little bit different overseas. A lot of people decorate their houses with Christmas lights and decorations. Decorating your house for Christmas is especially popular in America! Some American people who really love Christmas program their Christmas lights to flash in time to music!
If you would like to see a video of a house in America that has programmed their Christmas lights to music, please watch this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAp7g-WF9g8
This is what some of the houses decorated in New Zealand look like.
