Christmas is over, Boxing Day
is on!
Migrating
overseas can be a more complicated process that what many people may
anticipate. The recent incidences of terrorism in many countries across the
globe have led to the implementation of stiff immigration policies. From the
documentation to the security and medical checks, nothing is left to chance.
That is where OM INTERNATIONAL comes in.

always use updated information when offering services. As such, OM INTERNATIONAL knows the new implementations and
prepares our clients beforehand.
OM
INTERNATIONAL Visa Consultancy have a deeper understanding
of whether an immigrant would need a visa to enter a particular country, the
documents that they would need during the application of a visa if they will
need to and what checks they will have to pass once they touch down at the
foreign. OM INTERNATIONAL Visa services
believe in early preparations, and that is exactly what we encourage our
clients to do every time.
Boxing Day, the Day after
Christmas!
Boxing Day! The day after Christmas, 26th December
of every year is generally celebrated as Boxing Day. It is a day where the
workers get to give away the gift boxes they get at their work, to be given
away for their family members. The different traditions with an inlaid meaning
always mesmerize immigrants to know the root of traditions. Boxing Day in
many parts of the globe is observed to be a shopping and sporting day. In some parts
of Great Britain and Ireland it is observed
to stay relaxed and spend time with family members by eating all the leftovers
from the Christmas Day. They then open the gift boxes and enjoy the surprises.
They try to meet the family members whom they missed to meet on Christmas
day. A day after Christmas where the gifts of boxes is given away to less
privileged is now being forgotten and the whole theme runs around one’s self
care, a prick in heel, something to focus on.
Boxing Day is a national Bank
Holiday, the extended holiday to relax at home and be there for
the family and not to be worried about anything else but just enjoy with the
family members. The immigrants who invite their relatives or family members on
tourist visa will get to visit their extended family members living in the same
city or town. Since it will be a holiday, they will have some togetherness. The
domestic workers get to visit their families with boxes of food and gifts from
Christmas day and spend the day off from work and with their families.
Primarily it was a tradition started in Great Britain and has
been exported to USA, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and
other parts of the world. There is a growing need regarding the ethical values
of Christmas as it is disappearing for now-a-day! The real meaning of Christmas
and Boxing Day used to be different for locals and immigrants. It was focused
on giving away than receiving. The 26th December mainly
focused on giving away the boxes of gifts and presents to the poor rather and a
bit of relaxing, spending within the family structure, unlike what is happening
now. Boxing Day started off as a meaningful tradition which lost the chore
value for now, but immigrants pay lots of attention in knowing the roots.
Activities on Boxing Day – 26th December
Horse racing is predominantly played sport on
Boxing Day. Other games include Football and basketball. Some silly activities
such as swimming the icy cold English Channel and some fun-runs to raise
charity funds with an aim to help and support the poor. The immigrants also
enjoy watching horse racing, football, and swimming. A day to relax actually
turned around into a day of shopping in the recent years. Shops owners see it
to get rid of the stocks in view of getting the new stocks, but the people see
it to be a good bargain from their side.
Other activities on a day
after Christmas include hunting wild foxes while chasing them with
dogs had been a popular activity seen till 2004. Strictly speaking,
Boxing Day do not lie in boxing up unwanted gifts or putting up the gift wraps
in boxes but to share the kindness with those who are in need. An inner self
convinced to agree that it is not always about ‘Me’ but it is to act in
kindness towards others. The tourists who travel during the holiday season on a
tourist visa get to enjoy all kinds of silly and healthy traditions on 26th December
along with immigrants.
St. Stephen’s Day!
Boxing Day in Ireland is
observed as St. Stephen’s day. It is named after the famous saint
of the Bible who was known for his faith in Jesus and was martyred through
stoning him to death. Some argue that the Boxing Day started in the middle ages
when the priests collected the money for the poor in boxes long before
Christmas and gave them away on 26th December, St.
Stephen’s feast day, who was the first Christian martyr.
Food on Boxing Day
The left-overs from Christmas day and baked ham
with butter brandy are usually seen to be consumed during lunch on Boxing Day.
Mincemeat, smoked salmon, turkey soup, cocktails and salads actually balance
the overeating from Christmas to Boxing Day. The immigrants find
their way for differing with the dishes, mixing their hometown stuff since, the
day off gives them way to cook their favourites.
