Midnight keeps a different custom in every country: Scotland's Hogmanay sends a first-footer across the threshold, Spain eats twelve grapes on the last strokes, and Japan ends the year with a bowl of soba noodles. Denmark jumps from chairs at midnight, Greek doors wear a hung onion, and a suitcase circles the block in Latin America for a year of travel. Ten words for how the world welcomes a new year.
