A few days ago I found myself teaching kids how to say Happy New Year in Spanish and it made me curious. How do you wish a happy new year in the language of all the places that were so dear to us over the years? And well here are our favorite countries and their way of wishing you a happy new year. We made it 17 to make sure it’s a happy 2017.
