It was my first time spending Spring Festival in China with my host family. Spring Festival is highly valued by every Chinese family. Preparations began a week before the festival. First, the house was cleaned from top to bottom. My host mother Mrs Chen said this was to sweep away the dirt of the past year and get ready for the new year.

We usually have hotpot — it’s so tasty! However, what we eat isn’t the most important thing. What’s important is who we eat it with.

As I get older, coming home and being with my entire family is the most important part of it.
