“Greek traditions are very rich and a part of daily life. During Christmas, children go from house to house singing ‘kalanda’ (carols), with the accompaniment of triangles or drums. For this reason, people rewards of a small amount of money or give them to eat sweets like Greek honey cookies. Greek Christmas carols are sung on the mornings of Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve, as well as on January 5, the Eve of the Epiphany”, Thomai ☃️ #berry_tale #BIGBERRY #christmas #snow #winter

As we mentioned in the previous post, BIG BERRY team is flying to PyeongChang 2018 - 2018 평창 동계올림픽대회 및 동계패럴림픽대회 🇰🇷 We will not go to South Korea empty handed, so we're taking with us a wooden masterpiece to represent Slovenia 🇸🇮 A great Slovenian man Iztok Oblak, whose hobby is building wooden miniature of Slovenian houses, known as hayracks (“kozolec”), is the person in charge of this small yet ‘BIG’ BERRY project. On average, Iztok spends 500 hours cutting, glueing and grinding small pieces of wood to make hayrack replicas that still stand all over country's outskirts. But for our BB Mini house, he will spend 1000 hours to make exterior and interior perfectly equal to the real BB house made by Hosekra. Curious?! Check out some pictures and find out more about this great story of passion and devotion towards the beautiful Slovenian tradition. <3 #BBinOlympics2018 #potvPjongčang #ifeelsLOVEnia

"What is not possible during the year, it’s certainly possible on Christmas! It is the time that makes even the busiest of us come home, step out of the everyday routine, enclose the family circle and let their heart melt in the light of the blinking Christmas tree. Let yourself taste the Berry Christmas!", Monika 🎄🎅 #BIGBERRY #berry_tale #christmas #snow #winter

The countdown for the Winter Olympics has started and from now on there are only 62 days left. ⏰ Choosing one singular reason, among many, for happiness around BIG BERRY’s participation at the Olympics, we would have to go with the fact that we will be surrounded by the great Slovenian athletes and companies. 🇸🇮 Our beautiful logo will stand proud among numerous important, international partners. We take pride in the given opportunity for representing our country, side by side with other Slovenian athletes, businessmen and companies.

"Gathering with our loved ones around the warm fire during the cold winter days, sharing stories, joy and generous spirit and being excited about small things every day is the magic of the Christmas season. So let's not cherish this spirit only in December, but also during the other months, so we can be jolly all year long", Iva 🎅 #BIGBERRY #berry_tale #christmas #snow #winter

"Today Mr B visited Lithuania and ate traditional Lithuanian cookies. He heard that these cookies are special there. This country still follows some ancient traditions during this time of the year. Here people not only care about presents! The most important celebration is Kūčios (one day earlier than Christmas). This day is very special for them! Kūčios Eve supper starts when the first star appears in the sky. On the table must be served 12 different dishes (no meat until Christmas). Each dish represents each month of the year. The meal is a family occasion which includes many traditions with Pagan and Christian origins. Kūčios draws the family members closer, bringing everyone together and strengthening the family ties", Indrė Vitkutė 🌟 #berry_tale #BIGBERRY

Music is one of the most powerful ways to communicate with people we love <3 In this way, we should all visit the famous city of Mozart, Salzburg! 🎼 Once there, you can find, in every corner, different melodies and ambiences that portrays a medieval heritage. The city centre is full of life and emotions. It's magical! 🌟 #BIGBERRY #BIGBERRYdestinations

"Christmas is a great time to bring back to memory all the good things that have happened in our lives and in the life of those we love. It is also an opportunity to be gathered with our beloved ones, even if in thought". 🎅🎄 #berry_tale #christmas #winter #snow

At #BIGBERRY, we've different ways to organize and complete our daily tasks. But we all have the same reaction when we receive a postcard from our loved ones ❤ Christmas is getting closer, the time when shiny sparkling things remind us that each of us have many people around that brighten our days. Maybe it's time to say "Thanks" ;) Christina Fdez 🌟
