Description

Hi loves! I included two days in this vlog. In the first day, I went shopping with my family. The next day we went to the Shijukunichi of my grandmother's older sister. Shijukunichi means 49 days and it is a Japanese/ Buddhist tradition. Shijukunichi is held 49 days after the death of a person. We first went to a temple and had a ceremony there. Then we went to a restaurant and had a meal. After the meal the ashes were put into the grave. I didn't film any of these things due to obvious reasons, but I wanted to share this tradition with you. Since I live in Switzerland I wasn't able to attend such ceremonies of any of my deceased family members. It was a first for me and it certainly was interesting to learn more about the Japanese culture. Still, it was a sad event.
